During the initial operation of this fixture, a light smoke or smell may emit from the 
interior of the fixture. This is a normal process and is caused by excess paint in the 
interior of the casing burning off from the heat associated with the lamp and will 

decrease gradually over time.   

 

This fixture is a professional lighting effect designed for 

INDOOR / DRY LOCATIONS 

ONLY

 on stage, in nightclubs, theatres, etc. 

 

Please make sure there are 

NO FLAMMABLE MATERIALS

 close to the fixture while 

operating, to prevent any fire hazard. 

 

Minimum

 distance of inflammable materials from the surface 

1.6 feet (0.5m)

 

Maximum

 temp of the external surface may reach 

167

°

F (75

°

C)

 

The fixture must be installed in a location with adequate ventilation, at least 

0.6” 

(15cm)

 from adjacent surfaces. Be sure no air ventilation slots are blocked. 

 

DO NOT

 attempt installation and/or operation without knowledge how to do so. 

 

DO NOT

 allow operation by persons who are not qualified to operate this type of 

fixture. Most damages are the result of operations by nonprofessionals. 

 

Consistent  operational  breaks  may  ensure  the  fixture  will  function  properly  for 
many years to come. 

 

DO NOT

 shake fixture, avoid brute force when installing and/or operating fixture. 

 

Always  install  the  fixture  with  an  appropriate  safety  cable.  When  installing  the 
fixture in a suspended environment, always use mounting hardware that is no less 

than M10 x 25 mm, also be sure the hardware is insert in the pre-arranged screw 
holes in the bracket of the fixture. 

 

Use the original packaging and materials to transport the fixture in for service. 

 

DO NOT TOUCH

 the housing bare-hand during its operation. Turn OFF the power 

and allow approximately 15 minutes for the fixture to cool down before replacing 

or serving.
