FreeStyle Harness
FreeStyle Harness:
Align arrows on harness connector
with tube. Push and click into place.
To remove harness connector, turn
locking ring to the left and pull.
Push tubes into the ixture’s tube
holder clips. The tubes can operate
independent of the ixture allowing
them to be built into sets or custom
soft boxes or hand-held as a single
tube for an eye-light.
The FreeStyle Relector (REF-F484)
has a unique design to accommodate
the aluminum channel on the back of
the FreeStyle tube. It provides even
light distribution and maximizes
light output. In addition, it acts as
a heatsink and allows the FreeStyle
Tubes to run cooler.

Mounting the Fixture
The standard mount (MTP-KG41) comes with a
3/8” Lollipop that clamps into a grip head. The ball
and socket mount allows the xture to be oriented in
a broad range of angles.
Align the center pin of the mounting plate to the
center hole on the mating plate.
Rotate plate clockwise until the four shoulder rivets
drop into the receptacle. A locking pin will snap into
place when the plate is properly seated.
The yellow wire loops provide attachment points for
a safety chain.
To remove the plate, pull up on the locking pin and
reverse the mounting procedure.
Lollipops are interchangeable.
