INSTALLATION AND SETTING UP SPOTLIGHT
THE XENON SUPER TROUPER is shipped in sections which must be assembled.
The Folding Base Stand Assembly 65826 (if supplied; see Figure 6A) is shipped collapsed, and re-
quires only folding down and pinning the base legs. The following paragraph applies only to the rigid
base assembly 83793 (see Figure 6).
ASSEMBLE the four base legs to the square section of the center tube using the 3/8-
16 x 2-3/4 inch hex head cap screws and lock washers supplied. Insert a leveling foot and locknut in
each of the four leg brackets and level the base before proceeding with the installation.
WHEN INSTALLED in a permanent location, the leveling feet must be removed, and
the clearance holes in the base leg brackets used for hardware (user supplied) to bolt the base to the
floor or platform. If it is desired to have the unit portable, when operating, the leveling feet must be
adjusted down until the weight of the spotlight has been shifted from the casters to the leveling feet.
THE INNER TUBE and support yoke has three holes to permit adjusting the height of
the spotlight. The three holes are on four inch centers and will allow an optical height of approximately
53 inches, 57 inches, and 61 inches above floor level to the optical center of the lamphouse and lens
system. The leveling feet may be adjusted through an additional two inch range. Insert the height
location pin through the hole in the outer tube and one of the holes in the inner tube.
THE HORIZONTAL SWING and vertical tilt locking knobs are on the right hand
(operating) side of the yoke assembly. Tighten both of these locking devices securely before attempting
to place the lamphouse and lens system on the support yoke.
PLACE THE LAMPHOUSE and lens system on the yoke assembly, with the spot size
control handle to the right hand (operating) side, the same as the locking controls on the yoke. Line up
the four mounting holes in the bottom of the base rail with the four mating holes in the support yoke
and secure with the four 5/16-18 wing screws.
ATTACH THE COLOR BOOMERANG to the front of the optical system by inserting
the hinge pin through the hinge on the boomerang and optical system. Fasten the boomerang yoke to
the slotted angle bracket on the underside of the optical system pan. Adjust and securely tighten the
wing nut and lock nuts to hold the boomerang parallel with the front of the optical system housing.
ATTACH THE LAMPHOUSE CABLE connector to the receptacle on the power
supply. Align the pins before tightening the locking ring. Early model lamphouse cables include a
separate ground lead; secure the green ground lead to the ground terminal on the outside of the
power supply housing. Do not energize the xenon power supply before first installing the xenon
bulb into the lamphouse.
