OR the GY 16 for the CP 72 2000W lamp.
Before relamping – DISCONNECT THE LUMINAIRE FROM THE POWER SUPPLY. Be aware also that

MOUNTING YOUR LUMINAIRE
Your luminaire uses a theatre lamp with a grid filament. To avoid premature lamp
failure it is essential that the luminaire is always mounted do 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.
IMPORTANT NOTE:

packaging ensure you

To mount on the theatre standard scaffold pipe (48mm O.D) use
theatre hookclamps (G clamp) (Order Code:20HC). Your luminaire is
supplied with a 12mm setscrew, washers and nut.
Thread the setscrew through the yoke from the inside, put on a washer,
then the hookclamp, another washer and then do up finger tight with the
nut.
Please note we recommend the use of a TV Barrel Clamp or Half
Coupler (Code T57000) 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 luminaire and bolt the stand’s spigot onto the 12mm set
screw.
A safety chain (Order Code: 20SC) MUST always be used when rigging luminaires on bars, ladders
etc. The safety chain is passed through the luminaire anchor point hole located at the rear of the
luminaire and then around the bar. Be careful to allow sufficient slack to allow the luminaire to be
focused freely. Safety chains are available from Selecon or your distributor.
NB: The luminaire should be at least 2.0 metres 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 luminaire. This is useful to
achieve the best balance if using a colour changer or other accessory mounted on the front of the luminaire,
or to fit the luminaire in space restricted positions.
The yoke balance point is factory set for normal applications. To move the yoke, loosen the M8 bolts at the
bottom pivot point of the yoke on each side of the luminaire. Slide the yoke to the required position, check
the yoke is evenly positioned on each side and tighten the M8 bolts.
FOCUSING
The beam focus position of the Arena range is altered by adjusting the Lamp/ reflector
tray 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 luminaire, and that Gloves should always be worn when focusing
these luminaires.
PAN AND TILT ADJUSTMENT
To pan your luminaire loosen the top suspension nut and adjust, then retighten. To tilt, loosen the locking
clamp handle on the side of the luminaire, tilt and retighten finger tight.
