LAMP (RE)PLACEMENT

In case of replacement of the lamp or maintenance, do not open the fixture within 10
minutes until the unit cools down after switching off. Always unplug the unit before
servicing! Always use the same type of spare parts (bulbs, fuses, etc.) When replacing
parts, please only genuine spare parts.
• Unplug the mains cable.
• Wait for about 10 minutes until the unit has been cooled down.
• Unscrew the screw that closes the lamp compartment of the
fixture and open de top of the enclosure.
• On the inside you will see the lamp socket. Tear the lamp
socket gently out of the lamp compartment.
• Unplug the old lamp. Hold the lamp socket while unplugging
the lamp instead of pulling the cable!
• Hold the lamp socket while pressing the new lamp gently in
the socket.
• Attention! Check the label on the backside of the device or
see the technical specifications in this manual to know which
lamp should be used. Never install lamps with a higher
wattage! Lamps with higher wattage generate temperatures
the device was not designed for. If the device uses a lamp
transformer, it will burn due to current overload.
• Don't touch the bulb inside the reflector of the lamp with bare hands! This drastically shortens the lifespan
of the lamp. If you touched the lamp, clean it with a cloth and a little denatured alcohol. Wipe the lamp off
before installing.
• Put the new lamp back inside the unit. Be sure that the wires don't touch the lamp.
• Close the lamp compartment.
• Done!

OVERHEAD RIGGING

Best installation distance:
A projection distance of +/- 5 meters from the wall is perfect. From this
distance the projection will cover an area of 3.3 m x 3.3 m.
• Important: The installation must be carried out by qualified
service personal only. Improper installation can result in
serious injuries and/or damage to property. Overhead rigging
requires extensive experience! Working load limits should be
respected, certified installation materials should be used, the
installed device should be inspected regularly for safety.
• Make sure the area below the installation place is free from
unwanted persons during rigging, de-rigging and servicing.
• Locate the fixture in a well ventilated spot, far away from any
flammable materials and/or liquids. The fixture must be fixed at least 50cm from surrounding walls.
• The device should be installed out of reach of people and outside areas where persons may walk by or be
seated.
• Before rigging make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point load of 10times the device's
weight.
• Always use a certified safety cable that can hold 12times the weight of the device when installing the unit.
This secondary safety attachment should be installed in a way that no part of the installation can drop
more than 20cm if the main attachment fails.
• The device should be well fixed; a free-swinging mounting is dangerous and may not be considered!
• Don't cover any ventilation openings as this may result in overheating.
• The operator has to make sure that the safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by
an expert before using them for the first time. The installations should be inspected every year by a skilled
person to be sure that safety is still optimal.
