Precautions
If an AVE lighting fixture is used outdoors on a sunny day, ensure that it is in a shaded area and is
well ventilated to help prevent overheating.
Do not use AVE lighting fixtures in environments that are below 0°C OR exceed +40°C.
Suspension
Suspending any object is potentially dangerous and should only be attempted by qualified
individuals with thorough knowledge of the techniques and regulations for suspending objects. It is
the responsibility of the installer to ensure all fixtures and effects are installed correctly. AVE
strongly recommends inspecting installed systems every 6 months for signs of weakness or damage.
If any damage or weakness is detected then remedial action should be taken immediately. The user
is responsible for making sure the wall, ceiling, or structure is capable of supporting all objects
suspended overhead. Any hardware used to suspend a fixture not associated with AVE is the
responsibility of others.
Mounting
The Cobra Wash 200mk2 includes a hanging bracket that can be fitted using a hex tool (not included)
allowing you to hang the fixture upside down. It is strongly advised to install the safety loop and fit
an appropriate safety cable* when hanging the fixture.
*This is a secondary fall arrest; in the event the yoke or clamp fail, the fixture is safe from causing
serious injury or damage
