2. Operating determination

This device is a moving head for creating decorative effects  and was designed for indoor use only.

If the device has been exposed to drastic temperature fluctuation (e.g. after transportation), do not switch it on 

immediately. The arising condensation water might damage your device. Leave the device switched off until 

it has reached room temperature.

Never run the device without lamp!

Do not shake the device. Avoid brute force when installing or operating the device.

Never lift the fixture by holding it at the projector-head, as the mechanics may be damaged. Always hold the 

fixture at the transport handles.

When choosing the installation-spot, plea

se make sure that the device is not exposed to extreme heat, moisture 

or dust. There should not be any cables lying around. You endanger your own and the safety of others!

The minimum distance between light output and the illuminated surface must be more than 3 meters.

Make sure that the area below the installation place is blocked when rigging, derigging or servicing the fix

-

ture.

Always fix the fixture with an appropriate safety rope. Fix the safety rope at the correct holes only.

Only operate the fixture after having checked that the housing is firmly closed and all screws are tightly fas

-

tened.

The lamp must never be ignited if the objective-lens or any housing-cover is open, as discharge lamps may 

explode and emit a high ultraviolet radiation, which may cause burns.

The maximum ambient temperature 45°C must never be exceeded. 

CAUTION!

The lens has to be replaced when it is obviously damaged,

so that its function is impaired, e. g. due to cracks or deep scratches!

Operate the device only after having familiarized with its functions. Do not permit operation by persons not 

qualified for operating the device. Most damages are the result of unprofessional operation!

CAUTION!

The lamp has to be replaced when it is damaged

or deformed due to the heat!

Please use the original packaging if the device is to be transported.

Please consider that unauthorized modifications on the device are forbidden due to safety reasons!

If this device will be operated in any way different to the one described in this manual, the product may suffer 

damages and the guarantee becomes void. Furthermore, any other operation may lead to dangers like short-

circuit, burns, electric shock, burns due to ultraviolet radiation, lamp explosion, crash etc.
