Focus Adjustment 

 
The effect focus can be varied by moving the projection lens.  This may be accomplished without opening 
the unit case.  Two small thumb screws on the upper or lower surface of the unit secure the lens mount.  
Loosen both screws slightly, (but do not remove either screw) and use one of them as a handle to slide the 
lens mount forward or back until the desired focus is achieved, then tighten both thumb screws securely. 

 

 

 

 
 
Filter or Gel Installation 

 
A slot for a filter or color gel is provided at the front of the Firelight.  Color filters or gels should be cut to 
two inches by two inches, or 50mm square in size, and be no thicker than 1/16 inch, or 1.5mm.  A 
thumbscrew at the front of the unit retains the filter or gel.  The use of multi-color filters with bands of red, 
orange and amber colors stacked vertically across the fixture aperture will produce the most realistic fire 
effects.   Other arrangements of color filters or apertures may be useful to change the character and 
appearance of the projected display, and produce more unusual variations of the effect.   
 
To install or change a filter, disconnect power to the unit, remove the thumbscrew next to the output port, 
and slide the filter into the slot in the case top or bottom nearest the thumbscrew.  The filter or gel should be 
pushed into the slot until it stops, or at least until the edge of the filter or mount  is clear of the thumbscrew 
hole.  Reinsert the thumbscrew and gently tighten it to retain the filter.  If it is possible to invert the Firelight 
unit when installing a filter or gel, the filter can be simply dropped in or out of the slot after removing the 
thumbscrew.  Be sure to replace the thumbscrew before turning the Firelight right side up to hold the filter in 
place.  Reconnect power, aim, and focus the unit for normal operation.
