Service and maintenance

In the ERA 800 Performance:
• The side of the goboholder with the gobo retaining spring faces towards the LED light source.
• The side of the goboholder with the teeth faces towards the front glass.
With the goboholder placed teeth down on a clean surface and the gobo retaining spring facing upwards as
shown in Figure 18, gobos in the ERA 800 Performance must be installed as follows:
• The shiny side must face upwards towards the spring in the goboholder. The white side must face
downwards.
• Images or text on gobos must appear correctly (and not flipped left to right) when looking down at the
goboholder from the side with the spring.
• The textured side of textured glass gobos must face upwards. The flat side of the gobo must face
downwards so that the gobo sits flat in the goboholder.
Gobo alignment
See Figure 18. Note
the position of the
alignment marks
(arrowed) on
goboholders and
gobos. Install gobos
with the alignment
marks next to each
other.
Gobo replacement procedure
Avoid getting grease from your fingers or dirt onto gobos. Hold gobos by their edges only. Wear nitrile
cleanroom gloves when handling gobos.
To replace a gobo in a goboholder:
1. See Figure 19. Place the goboholder on a clean surface with the shiny side of the gobo facing upwards.
Note the position of the bend (arrowed) in the end of the gobo retaining spring. Using a plastic lever to
avoid scratching the gobo, lever the end of the retaining spring out of the groove in the goboholder and
lift the retaining spring out of the goboholder.
2. Turn the goboholder teeth side up and let the gobo fall out of the holder onto a clean, soft surface. Put
the goboholder on the surface teeth side down again.
