Preparation for use
Warning! Read ‘Safety’ starting on page 5 before installing the Highlander
Wash.
Included items
The Highlander Wash is supplied with an OSRAM Lok-It 1400/PS Brilliant lamp, a power
cable with a Neutrik powerCON TRUE1 connector and a floor stand.
Handling
The Highlander Wash has two handles on each side of the yoke to make carrying the
fixture easier. The fixture must be lifted and carried by two people. Do not try to lift or
carry the fixture alone. The handles are for use when carrying the fixture only. Do not use
the handles on the yoke for hoisting, primary attachment or secondary attachment.
To remove the fixture from a flightcase and prepare for installation on a truss or similar
structure, fasten two omega brackets with handles to the fixture using the camlock
bracket attachment points in the base of the fixture. Lift the fixture straight up out of the
flightcase and hang it on the truss chord.
To remove the fixture from a flightcase and place it on the ground or horizontal surface
that can hold the weight of the fixture, fasten the fixture’s floor stand (supplied) to the
fixture using the camlock bracket attachment points in the base of the fixture. Lift the
fixture straight up out of the flightcase, turn it upside down and place it onto the
surface.
Orientation and location
The fixture may be rigged in any orientation following the instructions in this chapter or
placed on a level surface in locations where it is safe to stand the fixture.
Make sure that the head will be at least 1 m / 3.3 ft. away from combustible materials
(wood, paper, textiles, etc.) including curtains and stage scenery when the fixture is
installed.
Make sure that there will be a minimum of 8 m / 26.3 ft. between the fixture and any
surface to be illuminated.
Make sure that there is no risk of collision when the head pans and tilts. Allow a minimum
center-to-center distance of 730 mm / 23.7 in. when installing fixtures side by side.
Identifying the front of the fixture
To identify the front of the fixture, look at the safety attachment points in the fixture’s
mini-base. The attachment point colored grey is on the
back of the fixture with pan
centered at 0°.
Mounting
The Highlander Wash may be rigged in any orientation or placed on a stable horizontal
surface.
Accessories are available to mount the Highlander Wash in various positions. These
fasten to the connectors on the base.
