MANY YEARS TO COME.
Before operating your new fixture please read this information to assist you in making maximum use of your

Philips Selecon.
LAMPING YOUR FIXTURE
The Arena Fresnels and PC range are fitted with a G38 lamp socket for the 120V CYX 2000W lamp.
Before relamping –DISCONNECT THE FIXTURE FROM THE POWER SUPPLY. Be aware also that
the lamp or fixture may still be hot, so exercise necessary caution to avoid burns. Please note also
that these fixtures are not suitable for mounting on a normally flammable surface.
Release the clip fastener and swing down the rear door.
Insert lamp taking care not to touch the quartz envelope with your fingers.
Close door and lock off the fastener.
RIGGING YOUR FIXTURE
Your fixture uses a theatre lamp with a grid filament. To avoid premature lamp
failure it is essential that the fixture is always mounted so the yoke is horizontal
and with the lamp base down, i.e: the lamp adjustment knob is at the bottom of
the rear lamp plate.
To mount on theatre standard scaffold pipe (48mm O.D) use theatre
hookclamps. The fixture is supplied with a 12mm set screw, washers and nut.
Please note we recommend the use of Megaclamp or similar heavy duty
clamp for use with the Arena range.
To mount on a telescopic stand (Order Code: STDTH), reverse the yoke under the fixture and bolt the
stand’s spigot onto the 12mm set screw.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Before discarding the packaging ensure you have the suspension bolt set,
color frame /or the lamp.

A safety chain (Order Code: 20SC) MUST always be used when rigging fixtures on bars, ladders etc.
The safety chain is passed through the fixture anchor point hole located at the rear of the fixture and
around the bar. Be careful to allow sufficient slack to allow the fixture to be focused freely. Selecon
supply a safety chain with all theatrical / entertainment fixtures.
The fixture should be at least 6 ft away from the nearest object it is lighting.
YOKE AND PIVOT POINT
The yoke can be positioned anywhere in the channel that runs the length of the fixture. This is useful to
achieve the best balance if using a color changer or other accessory mounted on the front of the fixture, or to
fit the fixture in space restricted positions.
The yoke balance point is factory set on the lens tube for normal applications. To move the yoke, loosen the
M8 bolts at the bottom pivot point of the yoke on each side of the fixture. Slide the yoke to the required
position, check the yoke is evenly positioned on each side and tighten the M8 bolts.
FOCUSING
The variable beam focus position of the Arena range is altered by adjusting the lamp/
reflector position in relation to the front lens. Finger tight pressure only is necessary to
lock the lens off in their chosen positions. A reference scale is provided to record
settings.
Please note that the handles on the Arena range can reach high temperatures
depending on the position or orientation of the fixture, and that gloves should always be worn when
focusing these fixtures.
PAN AND TILT ADJUSTMENT
To pan your fixture loosen the top suspension nut and adjust, then retighten. To tilt, loosen the locking clamp
handle on the side of the fixture, tilt and retighten finger tight.
