Section 2: Installation and Setup
Using the FredFrame™
To hoist, stack and/or "fly" projectors using the optional FredFrame™ (PN 38-814007-xx), you must first
remove the handles and properly secure each projection head within a FredFrame™. Then using appropriate
rigging clamps (PN 38-814007-51), you can raise and/or suspend the projector assembly. If desired, the lamp
ballast can also be hoisted and flown from its integral rigging bars. Follow the instructions provided with the
FredFrame™ kit.
1) Use straps and/or cabling with load capacity adequate for the total projection
head and frame weight. 2) Remove the lens before hoisting. 3) Critical safety means
to never exceed the Load Rating specified in the FredFrame™ Stacking & Rigging Kit
instructions.
Refer to the complete instructions for using the FredFrame™. These include all installation instructions as well
as mechanical adjustment procedures for proper image alignment.
Using a Fork Lift
Do not attempt to use a forklift without first installing the forklift rails on the bottom
of the FredFrame™, otherwise the base of the projector may crush and damage
internal components.
Strong extruded rails that mount to the bottom of the FredFrame™ accommodate forks from a forklift, and are
mandatory for this method of transport. Do not lift the projection head with equipment unless the FredFrame™
and forklift rails are installed. The projector's handles must be removed when installing the FredFrame™.
Follow the instructions provided with the FredFrame™ kit.
Stacking
To stack two projection heads together, you must first secure each head within a FredFrame™, and then secure
all corners of the frames together using 4 stacking pins (provided). Do not stack more than 2 projection heads
together, and do not attempt to move stacked projectors without proper transport equipment. Refer to the
instruction provided with the FredFrame™ Kit for stacking.
2.4 Installing Lens, Lamp, and Cooling
It is recommended that the lens and lamp installation be handled at the last possible moment to ensure that no
damage is done to the projector due to movement.
2.4.1 Lens Installation
Primary Lens
1. Remove the rear lens cap from the lens.
2. Rotate the lens clamp to the
OPEN
position.
3. Orient your primary lens with its UP label at the top and fully insert the assembly straight into the lens
mount opening all the way back, without turning.
NOTES: 1) Ensure that the Zoom connector is fully engaged. 2) When installing the lens, ensure that the lens is
NOT inserted at an angle, as this can cause damage.
3)
Ensure that the lens is fully back to seat
properly within the lens mount.
