Bulbs
When changing bulbs be sure to not touch the surface of the bulbs with bare
fingers. If inadvertently touched with bare fingers it should be degreased
immediately with alcohol and a soft lint free cloth. Be sure to wipe dry the bulb
surface afterwards.
Reflectors
The parabolic reflectors developed by ColorLight have an extremely smooth
surface to focus the light in wide or narrow beam. Bare fingers should never touch
the reflector surface. If inadvertently touched, the reflector surface should
immediately be degreased with alcohol and a soft lint free cloth.
Light beam heat damage
This searchlight is build for use on long distances and the high-intensity light from
the searchlight can, if set at a narrow beam, cause burn mark on surfaces closer
than 1 meter. To avoid that the searchlight is forgotten with the light on, always
use the feature “off and park” when not using the searchlight.
If protection hoods are used over searchlight body the system main power switch
in the electric box should be off; this is a precaution to reduce the risk of fire if the
hoods are not removed before turning the lights on.
Cleaning
Never wash the searchlight with water under high pressure because this can
penetrate through the seals and cause damage to mechanical and electrical
components.
Do not use strong solvents such as thinner or acetone to clean the searchlight
body or the operator panel.
Deicing
Removal of ice should be done with caution. Physical violence could
damage the front glass or the searchlight driving mechanics. Instead turn on
the lights and let the heat melt the ice.
Recycling and disposal
The bulbs used for models CL25 and CL35 contain mercury and must be recycled
or disposed according to applicable local and national regulations.
