To mount the device
Always observe all safety information listed in section “Physical
Installation” on page 14 when you mount the product and
accessories:
• Be aware of the maximum tilt angle 90° upwards and 90°
downwards.
Ensure that you install all accessories correct when you mount
the product above floor level:
• Top latched locked, safety catch snapped in.
• Set up tripods in a stable position. Tripods need to be ap-
proved for the load they need to carry.
• Always observe the additional load of cables and accesso-
ries!
Please observe the information given in the „Safety leaflet
ARRI lampheads“ (L5.40731.E), which is available for down-
load on our web site www.arri.com.
Basic features
Pan and tilt
Loose the mounting screw of the tripod or the appropriate fixing
screw of the mounting clamp to pan the L10. Tighten the screw
to avoid unintended movement. Loose the tilt-lock to tilt the L10
to the desired angle. Tighten the tilt-lock-lever to avoid unin-
tended movement.
To adjust the beam angle
Turn one of the focus knobs beneath the lens tube to adjust the
beam angle continuously. The entire lens tube moves in and
out. Two mechanisms protect the product from being dam-
aged:
• A predetermined braking point prevents the product from
damage, when the focus knob is turned with too high torque
at either end of the focus range.
• The self-impeding focus gear prevents the lens tube to move
itself in or out when the product is operated in a tilted position.
Use of accessories for beam shaping and light design
You can mount accessories such as a barndoor, filter holder or
scrim on the front side of the L10:
• Firmly press the button at the side of the top latch to open the
top latch.
• Insert the accessory from the upside into the brackets until the
safety catch engages. Slightly tilt the safety catch with your
finger for support.
