General Precautions
Heavy weight! Risk of injury and damage.
The yoke must be mounted hanging or standing vertically. Lateral load can cause deformation or
breaking the spigot, its fixing screw, the yoke or the yoke brackets.
Wear suitable protective gloves to avoid injury from sharp edges (e.g. sheet metal, profile or other
cut edges).
The product must not be exposed to vibration. This could cause parts to come loose or other dam-
age.
The lamphead may slip out of the yoke brackets if it is suspended incorrectly.
Regularly check the tightness of the spigot fixing screw (recommended torque for all versions: 50
Nm / 37 ft-lb.).
Fixtures and accessories must be secured against fall when mounted above floor level. Always ob-
serve common and local safety regulations.
The fixture must only be secured against fall using the safety loop attachment provided for the safety
cable. Never use the carrying handle or the handle on the back as an anchor point for the safety
cable.
The top handle may be used as an anchor point for the safety cable of the accessories.
Secure the device against tipping when standing on the floor or when high wind load is present.
Always observe common and local safety regulations.
Disconnect all cables prior to transport.
Do not disassemble the yoke by unscrewing the tilt lock handles.
