higher temperature.
•In case of a serious operating problem, stop using this product immediately!
If your Chauvet product requires service, contact Chauvet Technical Support.
Expected LED
Lifespan
LEDs gradually decline in brightness over time, mostly because of heat. Packaged in clusters,
LEDs exhibit higher operating temperatures than in ideal, single-
LED conditions. For this
reason, using clustered LEDs at their fullest intensity significantly reduces the LEDs’ lifespan.
Under normal conditions, this lifespan can be 40,000 to 50,000 hours. If extending this lifespan
is vital, lower the operating temperature by improving the ventilation around the product and
reducing the ambient temperature to an optimal operating range. In addition, limiting the overall
projection intensity may extend the LEDs’ lifespan.

4. OPERATION
Rotating the
Barrel Assembly
The OVATION Min-E-10WW allows manual rotation of the barrel assembly, as follows.
1. Locate the barrel rotation knobs at the top and bottom of the reflector housing.
2. Loosen the knobs by turning them counter-clockwise.
•Note: Do not remove the knobs.
3. Rotate the barrel to the desired position, in either direction from the centered position.
4. Tighten the knobs by turning them clockwise, which lock the barrel’s position.
When the gobo holder is installed, make sure the gobo holder slot cover is securing the
gobo holder into the gobo holder slot before rotating the barrel assembly or mounting
the product overhead.
Framing Shutters
Use the framing shutters to tighten and shape the beam of the OVATION Min-E-10WW, or open
them completely to allow the full beam to pass.
Gobo Holder Slot
The gobo holder slot has a sliding cover and is located in front of the top framing shutter. The
cover can either block the slot completely when the gobo
holder is not inserted, or lock the gobo
holder in place. Use a phillips head screwdriver to loosen or tighten the cover.
Gobo Holder
The OVATION Min-E-10WW comes with a removable gobo holder. Care must be taken when
removing or inserting the gobo holder. Follow the guidelines below when changing gobos:
•Always insert the gobo holder with the handle facing towards the front of the product.
•Pull back the framing shutter assembly directly behind the gobo holder slot for easier
insertion and removal.
•Do not insert the gobo holder backwards.

5. TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Product
Maintenance
To maintain optimum performance and minimize wear, you should clean this product frequently.
Usage and environment are contributing factors in determining the cleaning frequency.
As a rule, clean this product at least twice a month. Dust build-
up reduces light output
performance and can cause overheating. This can lead to reduced light source life and
increased mechanical wear.
To clean your product:
1. Unplug the product from power.
2. Wait until the product is at room temperature.
3. Use a vacuum (or dry compressed air) and a soft brush to remove dust collected on the
external vents.
4. Clean all external surfaces with a mild solution of non-ammonia glass cleaner or isopropyl
alcohol.
5. Apply the solution directly to a soft, lint-free cotton cloth or a lens cleaning tissue.
6. Wipe any dirt or grime to the outside edges of the lens surface.
7. Gently polish the lens surfaces until they are free of haze and lint.
Always dry the external surfaces thoroughly and carefully after cleaning them.
Cleaning the
Reflector Housing
Lens
The lens inside the primary housing may need periodic cleaning. To gain access to this lens, do
the following.
1. Separate the reflector housing from the barrel assembly by unscrewing the barrel rotation
knobs.
2. Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the lens from its fixed cover, if necessary.
3. Clean the lens as described in Product Maintenance.
Always close the framing shutters when transporting or storing the product.
