Maintenance 

 

The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are to be 
inspected by an expert after every four years in the course of an acceptance test. 
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are to be 
inspected by a skilled person once a year. 
 
The following points have to be considered during the inspection: 

1. 

All screws used for installing the device or parts of the device have to be tightly connected and must  

    not be corroded.

 

2. 

There may not be any deformations on housings, fixations and installation spots.

 

3. 

Mechanically moving parts like axles, eyes and others may not show any traces of wearing.

 

4. 

The electric power supply cables must not show any damages or material fatigue.  

 

The Showtec Gobo Quake requires almost no maintenance. However, you should keep the unit clean.  

Otherwise, the fixture’s light-output will be significantly reduced. 

Disconnect the mains power supply, and 

then wipe the cover with a damp cloth. Do not immerse in liquid. Wipe lens clean with glass cleaner and 
a soft cloth. Do not use alcohol or solvents. 

The front PC lens will require weekly cleaning, as smoke-fluid tends to build up residues, reducing the 
light-output very quickly. 
The cooling-fans and the internal lenses should be cleaned monthly with a soft brush. Dust will cause the 
fan to stop and the device will become damaged due to overheating. Then the warranty will become 
void. 

Please clean internal components once a year with a light brush and vacuum cleaner.  
Keep connections clean. Disconnect electric power, and then wipe the DMX and audio connections 
with a damp cloth. Make sure connections are thoroughly dry before linking equipment or supplying 
electric power.
