SAFETY INFORMATION
LIGHTING SYSTEM SAFETY
WARNING

NEVER disconnect any emergency or safety devices.
These devices are intended for operator safety.
Disconnection of these devices can cause severe injury,
bodily harm or even death. Disconnection of any of
these devices will void all warranties.
CAUTION

NEVER attempt service on a running machine.
NOTICE

To prevent the lighting system from overturning, NEVER
use in winds that exceed 22 mph (10 m/s).

The lighting system should only be used in temperatures
between 23° to 104°F (-5° to 40° C). Failure to comply
with these operating parameters could cause the lamp
to malfunction and shorten the ballast life.

ALWAYS keep the lighting system in proper running
condition.

Fix damage to lighting system and replace any broken
parts immediately.

ALWAYS store equipment properly when it is not being
used. Equipment should be stored in a clean, dry location
out of the reach of children and unauthorized personnel.
LAMP SAFETY
WARNING
NEVER
attempt to replace lamp with the power on.
Always unplug the power cord from the generator or
power source when changing the lamp.
ALWAYS allow a sufficient amount of time for the lamp to
cool
before changing. The possibility exists of severe burns.
CAUTION
NEVER
use force when installing the lamp.Excessive force
could cause the lamp to break, causing bodily harm.
NOTICE
NEVER
leave any grease or oil residue on lamp surface
when replacing or removing lamp. This can create hot
spots, reducing the service life of the lamp.
ALWAYS make sure lamp surface is clean and dry.
ALWAYS
replace with MQ recommended type lamp. See
parts section of this manual.
If applicable, ALWAYS
make sure the lamp guard is
installed correctly. NEVER deform the lamp guard.
NEVER
unplug the lamp’s AC power cable during
operation.
ALWAYS have a trained technician
to install and
remove lamp or replace any damaged fixture wiring.

SAFETY INFORMATION
BALLOON SAFETY
WARNING

To prevent serious burns, NEVER touch
or unzip the balloon envelope when the
lamp is on.
CAUTION

ALWAYS keep the balloon away from sharp objects and
excessive amounts of heat.
NOTICE

To prevent balloon deformation, NEVER use lighting
system in strong winds.

DO NOT place the balloon inside its protective cover
until the lamp has had a sufficient amount of time to cool
down. This will prevent the balloon’s nylon cover from
being burned (touching the lamp surface).

ALWAYS place the balloon inside its protective cover
after each use. This will prolong the life of the balloon
material, keeping it protected from harsh environmental
elements.

Replace balloon immediately if damaged. A damaged
balloon will not inflate properly, and may become more
damaged by touching the hot lamp surface.

DO NOT use excessive force when zipping and unzipping
the balloon. Be gentle with the zipper mechanism. If the
zipper is broken, the balloon will become unusable.
GENERATOR SAFETY
If using a generator to power lighting system,
refer to applicable generator manual safety
information section.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
DANGER

Lighting system is equipped with a ground pin on the
power plug. For your protection, ALWAYS
complete the
grounding path. NEVER
insert the AC power plug into a
2-prong receptacle to operate lighting system.
When applying power to the lighting system,
ALWAYS
connect the AC power plug to a 3-prong receptacle that
is grounded. The possibility exists of
electrical shock,
electrocution and even death
if the lighting system is
not grounded.
NEVER operate lighting system or
handle any electrical equipment while
standing in water, while barefoot, while
hands are wet or in the rain.A dangerous
electrical shock could occur, causing
severe bodily harm or even death.
ALWAYS make sure the area above
the lighting system is open and clear
of overhead power lines and other
obstructions. Contact with overhead
power lines or other obstructions could
result in equipment damage, electrical
shock, electrocution and even death.
Power Cord/Cable Safety
DANGER
NEVER let power cords or cables lay in water.
NEVER use damaged or worn
cables or cords. Inspect
for cuts in the insulation
NEVER grab or touch a live power
cord or cable with wet hands. The
possibility exists of electrical shock,
electrocution or death.

Make sure power cables are securely connected.
Incorrect connections may cause electrical shock
and
damage to the lighting system.
NOTICE
ALWAYS
make certain that proper power or extension
cord has been selected for the job. See Cable Selection
Chart in this manual.

GENERAL INFORMATION
The Multiquip GBC Lighting System is a general purpose
floodlight tower intended for emergency and remote lighting
needs. It is universally adaptable to all AC power supplies
and accepts 50/60 Hz, 100-240 V.
The GBC uses a single 1,000 watt lamp with pure white
light for maximum illumination with a light coverage of up
to 150 feet. The standard balloon (GBP) that comes with
the GBC provides 360° glarefree illumination. The balloon
is self-inflating and easy to install and inflate in less than
20 seconds.
The GBC has a three-stage mast that extends to a height
of up to 12 feet. It has a steerable cart design for easy
transportation. Three outriggers on the cart ensures great
stabilization.
The GBC can be powered by a variety of Multiquip's series
generators with an output power of 1.7 kW or greater.
If an extension cord is necessary to connect to a power
source, refer to Table 3 to select the proper length.

for the GBC Lighting System.The functions of each control
is described below:
1. Balloon Cover — Stores balloon when GBC is not in
use. Allow a sufficient amount of time for the lamp to
cool down before storing balloon. Possibility exists of
balloon getting burned.
2. Balloon — Made of heat resistant polyester, with a
diameter of 47.2 inches (1,200 mm). Balloon is self-
inflating and inflates in less than 20 seconds.
3. Velcro — Used to easily attach optional message strip
to the balloon.
4. Buckle — Used to hold the balloon together when
storing inside the cover.
5. AC Power Cable — Connects to the AC power source.
6. Cart — Holds the generator and can be steered easily
to transport GBC to different locations.
7. Locking Clamps — To secure the generator to the
cart platform, place clamps around the pipe frame of

message strip (Part No. GBBALD1) may be attached
to the balloon. The message strip can be purchased
separately.
18. Zipper — Zips up balloon to completely close it when
lamp is in place.
19. Lamp Holder — Holds lamp in place. Lamp is screwed
into socket.
20. Lamp/Balloon Bolt — Used to tighten mast when
attached to the lamp/balloon assembly.
21. Fan Motor (Blower) — Inflates the balloon as soon
as power is applied to the GBC.
22. Lamp — 1000 watt metal halide bulb with pure white
light for maximum illumination.
23. Lamp Guard — Protects the lamp from being hit by
objects and balloon material from touching lamp.
WARNING
