Mounting and installing
Warning!
Follow the safety precautions given at the beginning of this
manual when installing the CL1. Follow the safety regulations that are
applicable in your region when installing the CL1 overhead. If the CL1 can
cause injury or damage if it falls, secure it as described below with a
secondary attachment such as a safety cable that is approved for the
weight of the CL1.
You can install the CL1 in any orientation in a dry location.
Temporary installation
You can attach the CL1 to any magnetic surface by simply placing it on the surface.
The magnet on the back of the CL1 is strong enough to hold the CL1 in position on a
vertical surface. Non-slip rubber around the magnet helps to prevent the CL1 from
sliding on the surface.
Secure the CL1 with a safety cable as described below if it can cause injury or
damage if it falls.
Fixed installation
On surfaces or rigging trusses, use the integrated M6 threaded holes on the back of
the CL1 for screws or bolts. All fasteners and attachments must be suitable for the
purpose and environment.
GLP can supply optional installation and safety hardware for a wide range of
applications. See ‘Mounting on a UFO1 (Universal Fixing Object 1)’ on page 32, for
example.
Adding optical accessories
See Figure 19. Two front screens are
supplied with the CL1: a clear screen for
protection and a diffuser that softens
the light.
To install a front screen, place its three
magnetic mounts onto the magnetic
mounting points on the front of the CL1
(see ‘Product overview’ on page 9).
Screens are held in place magnetically.
To remove a front screen, simply lift it off
the magnetic mounting points on the
CL1.
