04/ Fixture Installation
DO install and operate by qualified operator. Fixture(s) should be installed in areas
outside walking paths, seating areas, or away from areas were unauthorized personnel
might reach the fixture by hand. NEVER stand directly below the fixture(s) when rigging,
removing or servicing.
Always ensure that the unit is firmly fixed to avoid vibration and slipping off during
operation. Ensure that the trussing or area of installation must be able to hold 10 times
the weight without any deformation. Always attach a safety cable that can hold at least
12 times the weight of the fixture whenever installing this fixture in a suspended
environment to ensure that the fixture will not fall if the clamp fails.
This fixture is fully operational in three different mounting positions: hanging
upside-down, mounted sideways on trussing, or set on a flat level surface. Always use
and install the supplied safety cable as a safety measure to prevent accidental damage
and/or injury in the event the clamp fails.

05/ Effect Wheels & Lamp
5.1 Effect Wheels
5.2 Light Source
PHILIPS MSD Silver 380W
Because of its high internal pressure, there might be a risk that the discharge lamp would
explode during operation. The lamp emits intense UV radiation which is harmful to the eyes
and skin. The high luminance of the arc can cause severe damage to the retina if you take a
close look at the lamp.
To protect the lamp, always turn off the lamp first (via control panel or DMX controller)
and let the unit run at least five minutes to cool down before switching off the mains
supply. Never handle the lamp or luminary when it is hot.
Do not touch the bulb with bare hands. If this happens, clean the lamp with denatured
alcohol and wipe it with a lint free cloth before installation.
The lamp generates UV radiation. Never operate the lamp without appropriate shielding.
When lighting up, the lamp operates at high pressure and there is a slight risk of arc tube
rupture. The risk increases with age, temperature and improper handling of the lamp. Do
not use the lamp longer than its lifespan.
Make sure the lamp is located in the center of the reflector for the best projection.
DANGER!
Install the color wheel / gobo wheel with the device switched off only.
Unplug from mains before changing the color wheel / gobo wheel!
