• Avoid rapid high power flashing especially
when using restrictive reflectors such as
snoots or grid reflectors, particularly if the
unit is pointing downwards. Excessive
heat will shorten the lifespan of your flash
unit, modeling lamp, and flash tube.
NOTICE
Long shooting session at high output at
more than 8 times per minutes should be
followed by a reasonable cooling period.
■
At least 10 to 20 minutes is advised
either without flashing or at substantially
reduced rate.
■
Do not flash over 12 shots per minute
for over 10 minutes.
■
Do not flash over 8 shots per minutes
for over 30 minutes.
22. Maintenance Notes
• Switch off the unit and unplug the power
cord when the flash is not in use.
• We recommend charging the flash unit
for one to two hours prior to its initial use
and after an extended period of inactivity
(more than two weeks).
• If the unit is left unused for a few months,
or the unit has been used predominately
at low power settings, we recommend that
the power be increased to the maximum
and the unit left switched on for at least 30
minutes (with the modeling lamp OFF) to
help preserve the life of the capacitors.
