This device falls under protection class I. Thereforeit is essential to connect the
yellow/green conductor to earth.
The electric connection, repairs and servicing must be carried out by a qualified
employee.
Do not connect this device to a dimmer pack.
Do not switch the fixture on and off in short intervals as this would reduce the lamp' s
life.
During the initial start-up some smoke or smell may arise. This is a normal process and
does not necessarily mean that the device is defective.
Do not touch the device's housing bare hands during its operation (housing becomes hot)!
For replacement use lamps and fuses of same type and rating only.
CAUTION :
EYE DAMAGES !
Avoid looking directly into the light source(meant especially for epileptics) !

3. Operating determinations
This device is a moving-head spot for creating decorative effects and was designed for
indoor use only.
If the device has been exposed to drastic temperature fluctuation (e.g.After transport-
ation), do not switch it on immediately.The arising condensation water might damage
your device.Leave the device switched off until it has reached room temperature.
Never run the device without lamp!
Do not shake the device.Avoid brute force when installing or operating the device.
Never lift the fixture by holding it at the projector-head, as the mechanics may be
damaged.Always hold the fixture at the transport handles.
When choosing the installation-spot, please make sure that the device is not exposed to
extreme heat, moistureor dust. There should not be any cables lying around.You
endanger your own and the safety of others!
The minimum distance between light-output and the illuminated surface must be more
than 2 meters.
Make sure that the area below the installation place is blocked when rigging, derigging
or servicing the fixture.Always fix the fixture with an appropriate safety-rope.Fix the
safety-rope at the correct holes only.
Only operate the fixture after having checked that the housing is firmly closed and all
screws are tightly fastened.
The lamp must never be ignited if the objective-lens or any housing-cover is open, as
discharge lamps may explose and emit a high ultraviolet radiation, which may cause
burns.
The maximum ambient temperature ta = 45 must never be exceeded. Otherwise, the
lamp is switched off and the fixture is out of operation for 5 minutes

Lamp assembly:
5.1 Fitting the lamp
To insert the lamp MSD 250 or MSD 250/2 open the top cover of the projector-head (see
the drawing to identify which cover is top) by loosening the 3 screws on the cover. Then
open the small lamp cover by loosening 2 fastening screws (see the drawing). If changing
the lamp, remove the old lamp from the socket. Insert the lamp to the socket. Do not
install a lamp with a higher wattage! A lamp like this generates temperatures the device is
not designed for. Damages caused by non-observance are not subject to warranty. Please
follow the lamp manufacturer s notes! Do not touch the glass bulb with bare hands
during the installation! Make sure that the lamp is installed tightly into the lampholder
system. Adjust the optimal distance 1-1.5 mm from the lens by turning the screw "A" (see
the drawings "Lamp adjustment" below) on the rear panel of the head. Then close the
small lamp cover by tighten 2 fastening screws again. Reclose the top cover of the head
and tighten the 3 screws.

5.2 Lamp adjust
The lamp holder is aligned at the factory. Due to differences between lamps , fine
adjustment may improve light performance. Strike the lamp, open the shutter and the iris,
setthe dimmerintensityonto 100% and focus the light ona flat surface (wall).As the
optimum distance of the lamp from lens was adjusted during theinstalling or changing the
lamp (by turning the screw ), it is necessary to adjust only the second position by
turning the screw , in order to center the hot-spot (the brightest part of the beam). If
the hot spotseems to be too bright, you can lower its intensity by moving the lamp closer to
the reflector. Do soby turningthe screw until the light isevenlydistributed. If the
light on the edgeseems to be brighter as in the center, the lamp is too close at the reflector.
In this case, you need to move the lamp away from the reflector until the light is evenly
distributed and the beam appears bright enough.

The installation of the projector has to be built and constructed in a way that it can hold 10
times the weight for 1 hour without any harming deformation.
Theinstallation mustalwaysbe secured with asecondary safety attachment, e.g. an
appropriate catch net. This secondary safety attachment must be constructed in a way that
nopart of the installation can fall down if the main attachment fails.
When rigging, derigging or servicing the fixture staying in the area below the installation
place, on bridges, under high working places and other endangered areas is forbidden.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are
approved by an expert before taking into operation for the first time andafter changes
before taking into operation another time.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are
approved by an expert after every four year in the course of an acceptance test.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are
approvedby a skilled person once a year.
The projector should be installed outside areas where persons may walk by or be seated.
IMPORTANT! OVERHEAD RIGGING REQUIRES EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE,
including (but not limited to)calculating working load limits, installation material being
used, and periodicsafety inspection ofall installationmaterial and the projector.If you
lack these qualifications, do not attempt the installation yourself, but instead use a
professional structural rigger. Improper installation can resultin bodily injury andor
damage to property.
The projector has to be installed out of the reach of people.
If the projector shall be lowered from the ceiling or high joists, professional trussing
systems have tobe used.The projector must never be fixed swinging freely in the room.
Projectors may cause severe injuries whencrashing down! If you have doubts
concerningthe safety of apossibleinstallation, do NOT installthe projector!
Before rigging make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point load of 10
times the projector s weight.

The projector can be placed directly on the stage floor or rigged in any orientation on a
truss without altering its operation characteristics.
For overhead use, always installa safety-rope that can hold at least 10 times the weight of
the fixture.You must only use safety-ropes with screw-on carabines. Pull the safety-rope
through the two apertures on the bottom of the base and over the trussing system etc.
Insert the end in the carabine and tighten the fixation screw.

9. Maintenanceand cleaning
It is absolutely essential that the fixture is kept clean and that dust, dirt and smoke-fluid
residues must not buildup on orwithinthe fixture. Otherwise, the fixtures light-output will
be significantly reduced. Regular cleaning willnot only ensure the maximum light-output,
b
ut will also allow the fixture to function reliably throughout its life.Asoft lint-free cloth
moistenedwithany good glass cleaningfluid is recommended, under nocircumstances
should alcohol or solvents be used!
The front objective lens will require weekly cleaning as smoke-fluid tends to building up
residues, reducing thelight-output very quickly.The cooling-fans should be cleaned
monthly.
Thegobos may be cleaned with a softbrush.The interior of the fixture should be cleaned at
least annually usinga vacuum-cleaner or an air-jet.
Thedichroic colour-filters, the gobo-wheel and theinternal lenses should be cleaned
monthly.
To ensure a proper function of the gobo-wheel , we recommend lubrication in six month
intervals.The quantity of oil must not be excessive in order to avoid that oil runs out when
the gobo-wheel rotates.
There are no serviceable parts inside the device except for the lamp and the fuse.Please refer
to the instructions under "Fitting/Exchanging the lamp".Maintenance and service
operations are only to be carriedout by authorized dealers.
If the lamp burns out, the fine-wire fuse of the device might fuse, too.Only replace the fuse
bya fuse of same typeand rating.Before replacing the fuse, unplug mains lead.
1) Unscrew the fuseholder on the rear panel of the base with a fitting screwdriver from the
housing (anti- clockwise).
2) Remove the old fuse fromthe fuseholder.
3) Install the new fuse in the fuseholder.
4) Replace the fuseholder in the housing and fix it.
DANGER :Disconnect from the mains before startinganymaintenance work
