QUICK START GUIDE

HANGING THE LUMINAIRE

The VL800 EVENTPROFILE Luminaire can be hung hori-
zontally or vertically from any structure designed to work 
with the type of load created Clamp and Quick lock fasten-
er or other mounting hardware are required. Many compat-
ible truss hooks are available from diff erent manufacturers 
for your particular needs.

One Quick-lock fastener per luminaire is required. If 
mounting method does not use truss hooks, two attach-
ment points per luminaire, are required. Always ensure 
the diameter of safety cable is at least 4 mm, which can 
support at least 12 times the weight of the unit.

To install mounting hardware and brackets:

Step 1. 

Bolt each clamp to the Omega holder with screw 
and lock nut through the hole in the holder as shown in 

FIGURE 3

NOTE:  

Various types of truss hooks can be used. The Clamp (as shown) as well as many other standard hooks, 

can be ordered separately.

the base and tighten fully clockwise.

the bottom of the base and over the support.
