Hi,

I'm new to darkroom and I just got hold of a Meopta Color 3 head for an Opemus 6 Super.
Everything's working fine, but the bulb is really old and the seller gave me a replacement one
for when I wanted to change it. Opening up the machine and tinkering with it, I find everything's
in place, but I can't seem to be able to remove the lamp holder to change lamps. I remove the head
from the enlarger, remove the diffusion box and the two handheld screws that keep the lamp holder
from coming out, but it still doesn't come out! Is there a science to this? A button? It seems to be held
in place by a metal slit (diffusion box side) that won't let me pull it out completely, just a tiny bit.

Any help appreciated!

Thank you.
