How To Bench Focus a Source Four*

• With the Source Four aimed at a flat surface, turn the unit on.
• Using the knob located below the barrel, move the barrel forward or backward as necessary to achieve a hard edge on the beam.
• Unlock and loosen (turn counter clockwise) the outer knob on the rear housing.
• Gently move the outer knob as necessary - up/down, side to side - to center the lamp.
• Tighten the outer knob (turn clockwise).
• Turn the inner knob clockwise or counter clockwise to move the lamp forward and back which will result in the beam varying from noticeably darker in the center (hole in the center), noticeably brighter in the center (hot spot) or virtually even or flat. In general, for most purposes a flat field is desirable.
