3. Operating determinations
This device is a moving-head spot for creating decorative effects and was designed for
indoor use only.
If the device has been exposed to drastic temperature fluctuation (e.g. After transport-
ation), do not switch it on immediately. The arising condensation water might damage
your device. Leave the device switched off until it has reached room temperature.
Never run the device without lamp!
Do not shake the device. Avoid brute force when installing or operating the device.
Never lift the fixture by holding it at the projector-head, as the mechanics may be
damaged. Always hold thefixture at the transport handles.
When choosing the installation-spot, please make sure that the device is not exposed to
extreme heat, moistureor dust.There should not be any cables lying around. You
endanger your own and the safety of others!
The minimum distance between light-output and the illuminated surface must be more
than 2 meters.
Make sure that the area below the installation place is blocked when rigging, derigging
or servicing the fixture.Always fix the fixture with an appropriate safety-rope. Fix the
safety-rope at the correct holes only.
Only operate the fixture after having checked that the housing is firmly closed and all
screws are tightly fastened.
The lamp must never be ignited if the objective-lens or any housing-cover is open, as
discharge lamps mayexplose and emit a high ultraviolet radiation, which may cause
burns.
The maximum ambient temperature ta = 40 must never be exceeded. Otherwise, the
lamp is switched off andthe fixture is out of operation for 5 minutes.

5.3 Rigging the fixture
DANGER T O LIFE:Please consider the respective national norms during the
installation!The installation must only be carried out by an authorized dealer!
ØThe installation of the projector has to be built and constructed in a way that it can hold 10
times the weight for 1 hour without any harming deformation.
ØThe installation must always be secured with a secondary safety attachment, e.g. an
appropriate catch net. This secondary safety attachment must be constructed in a way that
no part of the installation can fall down if the main attachment fails.
ØWhen rigging, derigging or servicing the fixture staying in the area below the installation
place, on bridges, under high working places and other endangered areas is forbidden.
ØThe operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are
approved by an expert before taking into operation for the first time and after changes
before taking into operation another time.
ØThe operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are
approved by an expert after every four year in the course of an acceptance test.
ØThe operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are
approved by a skilled person once a year.
ØThe projector should be installed outside areas where persons may walk by or be seated.
ØIMPORTANT! OVERHEAD RIGGING REQUIRES EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE,
including (but not limited to)calculating working load limits, installation material being
used, and periodic safety inspection of all installationmaterial and the projector. If you
lack these qualifications, do not attempt the installation yourself, but instead use a
professional structural rigger. Improper installation can result in bodily injury and or
damage to property.
ØThe projector has to be installed out of the reach of people.
ØIf the projector shall be lowered from the ceiling or high joists, professional trussing
systems have to be used. The projector must never be fixed swinging freely in the room.
ØCaution: Projectors may cause severe injuries when crashing down! If you have doubts
concerning the safety of a possible installation, do NOT install the projector!
ØBefore rigging make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point load of 10
times the projector s weight.
ØThe projector can be placed directly on the stage floor or rigged in any orientation on a
truss without altering its operation characteristics.
ØFor overhead use, always install a safety-rope that can hold at least 10 times the weight of
the fixture. You must only use safety-ropes with screw-on carabines. Pull the safety-rope
through the two apertures on the bottom of the base and over the trussing system etc.
Insert the end in the carabine and tighten the fixation screw.
