Operating Instructions
This equipment is designed for use
out of doors, in free air.
Never place anything on, or cover, the
searchlight when in operation as this
may present a hazard.
The searchlight can be positioned
using the elevation and baseplate
lockwheels. When in the desired
position the lockwheels must be
securely fastened to prevent damage.
The beam of the searchlight can be
internally adjusted to give a variety of
`spreads'. Remove the front bezel
assembly and using the focussing
lever, the lampholder can now be
moved into the desired position,
towards the front for spot or the rear
for flood. When in the correct position
Re-fit the front bezel assembly.
The searchlight is fitted with a
breather unit assembly. This ensures
a steady airflow in order to prevent
any vacuum forming within the barrel.
Note:
Ensure that the searchlight
is switched off and the lamp has
had time to cool down before
changing the beam.
Note:
This product should not be
used for any purpose other than
for which it was designed. Any
modifications to the product
should not be undertaken before
consulting the manufacturer or
agent.
Setting to Work
Safe service in use necessitates
the strict observance of the
following precautions.
Any article fabricated from quartz or
glass is inherently fragile and care
should therefore be taken at all times
when handling lamps.
Eye protection must be worn when
handling lamps that have been
removed from their packaging
materials. The protective sleeve
should not be removed from the lamp
for safety reasons as there is a
remote possibility of the lamp
shattering violently, especially if it is
submitted to mechanical shock or
vibration.
Quartz lamps should not become
contaminated with oils, grease or
come into contact with skin.
When fitting the lamp:
Always isolate the equipment from
the supply before inserting a lamp;
Ensure the circuit is suitably
fused;
Ensure that the lamp is of the
recommended type and rating;
Check the lampholder is in good
condition. If the contacts show any
sign of corrosion the lampholder
should be replaced;
Check that the lampholder is in a
good dry condition. Never allow
water to collect in the lamp fitting
or come into contact with the
lamp.
