SAFETY INFORMATION

BALLOON SAFETY

  WARNING

 

To prevent serious burns, 

NEVER touch 

or unzip the balloon envelope when the 

lamp is on.

  CAUTION

 

ALWAYS keep the balloon away from sharp objects and 

excessive amounts of heat.

  NOTICE

 

To prevent balloon deformation, 

NEVER use lighting 

system in strong winds.

 

DO NOT place the balloon inside its protective cover 

until the lamp has had a suffi cient amount of time to cool 

down. This will prevent the balloon’s nylon cover from 

being burned (touching the lamp surface).

 

ALWAYS place the balloon inside its protective cover 

after each use. This will prolong the life of the balloon 

material, keeping it protected from harsh environmental 

elements.

 

Replace balloon immediately if damaged. A damaged 

balloon will not infl ate properly, and may become more 

damaged by touching the hot lamp surface.

 

DO NOT use excessive force when zipping and unzipping 

the balloon. Be gentle with the zipper mechanism. If the 
zipper is broken, the balloon will become unusable.

MAST SAFETY

  CAUTION

 

When raising or lowering the mast, keep 

hands and fi ngers clear of the various mast 

sections, this will prevent hands and fi ngers 

from getting pinched.

 

NEVER attach anything to the mast.

 

ALWAYS lower the mast when not in use, or if 

high winds or electrical storms are expected in the area.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

  DANGER

 

Lighting system is equipped with a ground pin on the 

power plug. For your protection, 

ALWAYS complete the 

grounding path. 

NEVER insert the AC power plug into a 

2-prong receptacle to operate lighting system.

  When applying power to the lighting system, 

ALWAYS 

connect the AC power plug to a 3-prong receptacle that 

is grounded. The possibility exists of 

electrical shock, 

electrocution and even death if the lighting system is 

not grounded.

 

NEVER operate lighting system or 

handle any electrical equipment while 

standing in water, while barefoot, while 

hands are wet or in the rain. A dangerous 

electrical shock could occur, causing 

severe bodily harm or even death.

 

ALWAYS make sure the area above 

the lighting system is open and clear 

of overhead power lines and other 

obstructions. Contact with overhead 

power lines or other obstructions could 

result in equipment damage, 

electrical 

shock, electrocution and even death.

Power Cord/Cable Safety

  DANGER

 

NEVER let power cords or cables lay in water.

 

NEVER use damaged or worn cables or cords. Inspect 

for cuts in the insulation

 

NEVER grab or touch a live power 

cord or cable with wet hands. The 

possibility exists of 

electrical shock, 

electrocution or death. 

 

Make sure power cables are securely connected. 

Incorrect connections may cause 

electrical shock and 

damage to the lighting system.

  NOTICE

 

ALWAYS make certain that proper power or extension 

cord has been selected for the job. See Cable Selection 

Chart in this manual.
