Setting up light force bulb

[jcm 2,327]

Changed the bulb on my blitz recently and I'm sure when you put bulb in your suppos3d to pull it back a few mm to get a tighter spot.

Problem is you carnt just put it in and try it then move it as ye burn your fingers lol 

Anyone know the correct mm

Might be a good idea to let it cool down before you pull it out a few mill

The 140 and 170 bulb should be pulled 3-4mm from the base of the lamp and on a blitz to be pushed flush against face of the lamp

As far as I know it’s the same with all lightforce lamps push the bulb all the way in then pull it back out a few mill

They are all different meaning each handle regardless if its 140.170 or 240 head. Some have to be pushed right in some a few mm out the head also has to be screwed in and out to get the length of beam and preferred spot. If the bulb gets hot use a piece of paper or a tissue to adjust the bulb and stop burning your fingers. Most need playing around with to get them set up properly.
