Use of Softboxes
The EX-100A Monolight is often sold as a kit with an Impact softbox included. The following
instructions will guide you to set up the Impact softbox typically included in an EX-100A kit.
If you bought the EX-100A alone, you can use any softbox that has an Elinchrom mount.
Begin by unfolding the softbox skin.
Remove the rubber bands holding the flex
rods together. Insert the small end of one of the flex rods
into the mounting ring. Be certain to insert
the rod as far as it will go.
Insert a second flex rod in the hole
opposite the first one. Pull the softbox skin over the mounting
ring. Align the corners with the flex rods.

Tuck the thick end of one of the flex rods
into a pocket in the corner of the softbox
skin. Tuck the opposite flex rod into its pocket.
You’ll have to bend the rod a little to get it
to fit.
Continue with the third and fourth flex
rods, inserting the small ends all the way
into the mounting ring first. The interior baffle attaches with touch
fasteners. You can leave this baffle off for
more intense light.
