Installation safety and warning guidelines

Read all safety and warning guidelines before installing the projector.

Danger! Failure to comply with the following results in death or serious injury.

This product must be installed within a restricted access location where equipotential bonding is
provided, which is normally inaccessible by the general public, including workers, visitors, and
residents in the immediate vicinity, by means of engineering or administrative control measures
but is accessible to authorized personnel that may not have specific safety training.

This product must be located and positioned in a way as to restrict audience members from
direct access to enter the light beam path.

For overhead installations, always install safety straps or cables, ensure lens safety cable and
TPC safety cables are installed, observe load ratings and all local applicable safety codes, and do
not install the shroud on the projector.

Only install the projector in an upright or portrait orientation. Do not install the projector in an
inverted orientation.

When rigging, stacking or installing the projector in portrait mode, use the Roadie 4K Frame
P/N: 129-115108-XX.

The projector uses a high-pressure lamp that may explode if improperly handled. Always wear
manufacturer approved protective safety clothing (gloves, jacket, face shield) when the lamp
door is open or when handling the lamp. Failure to comply results in death or serious injury.

Warning! Failure to comply with the following could result in death or serious injury.

A Christie qualified technician is required for all installations.

SHOCK HAZARD! Never operate the projector without all of its covers in place.

Use of the projector’s rear safety strap is mandatory to prevent the projector from tipping.
Secure the strap between the projector and the surface it is mounted to.

Four or more people are required to safely lift and hand-carry one projection head a short
distance. Christie recommends removing the lamp before transporting the projector.

Two or more people are required to safely lift and hand-carry the lamp power supply (LPS).

Notice. Failure to comply with the following may result in property damage.

Perform an automatic LampLOC adjustment when the lamp is moved, leveled, or a new lamp is
installed in the projector.

Keep the projector level when lifting or transporting. Avoid tilting the projector to the right. This
can introduce an air bubble into the coolant hoses that can result in an air lock and the
overheating of the projector.

AC/power precautions

To correctly install this projector, a certified electrician must install a permanent three-phase

connection to the lamp power supply (LPS). The LPS projector outlet supplies power to the projector

head. Operate the projector at the recommended voltage.

Danger! Failure to comply with the following results in death or serious injury.

Disconnect projector from AC before opening any enclosure.
