3. OPERATING DETERMINATIONS
This device is a fundamental part for installing e.g. spotlights or lighting effects. This product is only allowed
to be operated with an alternating voltage of 230 V, 50 Hz and was designed for indoor use only.
This device is designed for professional use, e.g. on stages, in discotheques, theatres etc.
The maximum carrying capacity of this holding device must never be exceeded.
Do not shake the device. Avoid brute force when installing or operating the device.
When choosing the installation-spot, please make sure that the device is not exposed to extreme heat,
moisture or dust. There should not be any cables lying around. You endanger your own and the safety of
others!
This device must never be operated or stockpiled in sourroundings where splash water, rain, moisture or fog
may harm the device. Moisture or very high humidity can reduce the insulation and lead to mortal electrical
shocks. When using smoke machines, make sure that the device is never exposed to the direct smoke jet
and is installed in a distance of 0.5 meters between smoke machine and device. The room must only be
saturated with an amount of smoke that the visibility will always be more than 10 meters.
The ambient temperature must always be between -5° C and +45° C. Keep away from direct insulation
(particularly in cars) and heaters.
The relative humidity must not exceed 50 % with an ambient temperature of 45° C.
This device must only be operated in an altitude between -20 and 2000 m over NN.
Never use the device during thunderstorms. Over voltage could destroy the device. Always disconnect the
device during thunderstorms.
Make sure that the area below the installation place is blocked when rigging, derigging or servicing the
fixture.
When choosing the installation-spot, please make sure that the stand has to be installed in a way that no
person can enter the area below the stand or its load! Make sure that the respective area is blocked.
An unintended movement of the load has to be avoided.
Stands have to be operated by instructed persons. The different local conditions have to be considered in
terms of safety rules.
The installer is responsible for adhering to the carrying capacity given by the manufacturer, the safety
requirements and the qualification of possible co-workers.
When people are located below the load, all necessary safety measures have to be taken in order to avoid
injury.
The personell has to be instructed on the content of the user manual and on the dangers related with
operating stands.
Dependending upon the individual installation spot, all necessary measures against movement and for
securing the standing safety have to be created.
The installation is only allowed on carrying areas. In some cases, an appropriate substructure, e.g. via an
balancing foot, has to be created.
