Maintenance 

 

Warning! Read ‘Safety information’ on page 5 before 
servicing the fixture. 

Refer any service operation not described in this user manual to 
an authorized Martin™ service technician. 

Disconnect mains power before cleaning or servicing the fixture. 

Service fixtures in an area where there is no risk of injury from 
failing parts, tools or other materials.  

Installation, on-site service and maintenance can be provided worldwide by the 
Martin Professional™ Global Service organization and its approved agents, 
giving owners access to Martin’s expertise and product knowledge in a 
partnership that will ensure the highest level of performance throughout the 
product’s lifetime. Please contact Martin™ for details. 

Cleaning  

Excessive dust, smoke fluid, and particle buildup degrades performance, 
causes overheating and will damage the fixture. Damage caused by 
inadequate cleaning or maintenance is not covered by the product warranty.  

The cleaning of external optical lenses must be carried out periodically to 
optimize light output. Cleaning schedules for lighting fixtures vary greatly 
depending on the operating environment. It is therefore impossible to specify 
precise cleaning intervals for the fixture. Environmental factors that may result 
in a need for frequent cleaning include:  

  Use of smoke or fog machines.  

  High airflow rates (near air conditioning vents, for example).  

  Presence of cigarette smoke.  

  Airborne dust (from stage effects, building structures and fittings or the 

natural environment at outdoor events, for example).  

If one or more of these factors is present, inspect fixtures within their first 100 
hours of operation to see whether cleaning is necessary. Check again at 
frequent intervals. This procedure will allow you to assess cleaning 
requirements in your particular situation. If in doubt, consult your RUSH by 
Martin dealer about a suitable maintenance schedule.  

Use gentle pressure only when cleaning, and work in a clean, well-lit area. Do 
not use any product that contains solvents or abrasives, as these can cause 
surface damage.
