Hanging the Luminaire
The VL500 wash luminaire can be hung horizontally or vertically from any structure designed to work
with the type of load created by this moving luminaire. Two mounting truss hooks or other mounting
hardware are required. Many compatible truss hooks are available from different manufacturers for
your particular needs.
A minimum of two hooks per luminaire is required. If mounting method does not use truss hooks, two
attachment points, per luminaire, are required.
Install mounting hardware:
Step 1. Install truss hooks directly to the luminaire base (foot) as required.
Figure 2-2: Installing Truss Hooks
Note: Various types of truss hooks can be used. The Mega Claw truss hook (as shown in the example
above) as well as many other standard hooks, can be ordered separately.
Step 2. After installing truss hooks, the hooks should be oriented as shown in Figure 2-2 and Figure
2-4 .
