Highlander Wash Quick Start and Safety Manual
●
Do not look at the fixture’s light output with optical instruments or any device that
may concentrate the light output.
●
Make sure that persons near to or working on the fixture are not looking directly into
the light output when the fixture lights up suddenly. This can happen when power is
applied, when the fixture receives a DMX signal, or when certain control menu items
are selected.
●
Provide well-lit conditions to reduce the pupil diameter of anyone working on or near
the fixture.
Strobe safety
●
Flashing light, particularly at 5 - 30 Hz, may cause seizures in persons with
photosensitive epilepsy. Do not use strobe effects for extended periods.
●
Comply with local regulations on the use of strobe lighting and notify the public in
advance with highly visible warning signs when strobe effects are used.
●
If a seizure occurs, stop using strobe effects. Seek professional medical help. Note the
time that the seizure starts and finishes. Call emergency medical help urgently if the
seizure lasts more than five minutes, if it is the person’s first seizure, or if the person is
injured. While waiting for help to arrive, protect the affected person from injuring
themselves on hard or sharp objects. If necessary, move the person to a safe place.
Lay them on their side with their head supported to prevent it from hitting the floor.
Loosen any tight clothing around their neck. Do not use force to hold the person or
restrict their movements. Do not put anything in their mouth, including your fingers.
Lamp safety
●
Do not exceed the lamp’s specified lifetime of 750 hours of lamp use. The risk of
damage from lamp explosion increases as the lamp approaches its specified
lifetime.
●
Do not get close to a hot or operating lamp. Discharge lamps operate at high
internal pressure and can explode without warning. The extremely hot shards of
broken glass from an unshielded lamp can cause serious injury.
●
Do not operate the lamp unless all shields and covers around the lamp are in place.
●
Do not look directly at an unshielded lamp. Wear safety goggles whenever the lamp
is exposed.
●
Do not allow an unshielded lamp to project light onto your skin. Direct exposure to
UV radiation can cause skin burns.
●
Turn off the lamp and allow the fixture to cool for at least 30 minutes before opening
any door or cover.
