Mount on a stand
(1) Select a stand or support
system of suitable weight
and dimensions to ensure
stable operation of the unit.
Install Reflector &
Modeling Lamp
(2) Remove the protective
cap by pressing in and
turning it counter-
clockwise. Pull the cap off
and set aside.
(3) Install the modeling
lamp by screwing it into the
threaded socket.
CAUTION: Do not touch the lamp with your bare hands. Oil residue from your fingers can
cause the surface of the lamp to heat unevenly and explode. Use white cotton gloves or a
clean cloth.
(4) Install the reflector where the protective cap was before. Align the two notches on
the reflector with the white guidelines on the flash unit, press the reflector in and rotate
clockwise until it locks in place. Rotate the outer ring to secure the reflector.
Note: Take care when fitting or removing reflectors or softboxes to not damage the
flashtube assembly. The flashtube is very delicate. Always switch off the unit and
disconnect the power before fitting or changing lamps, flashtubes, reflectors, or softboxes.
