IMPORTANT
Installer and Users please note:
•
These instructions should be read carefully and left with the user of the product for future reference.
Installation
•
Fix the G017F with the hanging bracket provided. To conform to Health & Safety Regulations, a safety chain must also be employed.
•
The G017F must be installed by a competent electrician in accordance with the current IEE wiring regulations. Connect the G017F to
the mains supply with the lead provided. The wires are colour-coded as follows:
• Brown = Live (phase)
• Blue = Neutral
• Green/Yellow = Earth
•
The G017F must be earthed for safe and reliable operation.
•
The supply must be fitted with an isolating switch, or plug and socket, and protected by fuse or circuit breaker rated at between 6A
and 16A. If the G017F circuit is connected via an MCB then it is recommended that a time-delay MCB is used (Type 3 or Type C to
BS3871). This will reduce the possibility of "nuisance tripping" due to the large inrush current of the halogen lamp.
•
In order to reduce the risk of fire, the G017F should be installed more than 0.8 metres from any object that it is illuminating.
•
It is also possible to connect the G017F to a switching pack such as the NJD Euro 8s or SP10000. If connecting via a power pack,
the outputs of the power pack should be de-rated by 50% from its îresistive loadï capacity to allow for the large inrush current of the
halogen lamp. The G017F should not be connected to a dimming pack or light dimmer. The G017F is an inductive load.
•
Adjust the hanging bracket until the light beams are in the best position. The G017F may be moved whilst it is operating provided
that it is done carefully, the lamp is most vulnerable mechanical damage immediately after it has been switched off, before it has fully
cooled. It is recommended that the G017F is allowed to cool for 5 minutes after switching off before moving.
•
Lamp Brightness/Extended LIfe Switch. The high brightness/extended life switch is provided to select high brightness or extended
lamp life, or to allow for lower or higher mains voltages (A higher mains voltage substantially reduces lamp life). The switch is
positioned next to the incoming mains cable. If operating on a 220V supply, select high brightness, otherwise, select select which ever
mode is appropriate. In the centres of towns the mains voltage can be appreciably higher than 240V during the evenings, so the
extended life setting may be advisable.
•
Changing the lamp.
Disconnect from the mains supply. Remove the lamp cover on top of the unit and remove the lamp from the lampholder. Disconnect
the lamp connector. Replace with a new lamp, type A1/259, being careful not to touch the glass envelope of the lamp. Hold the lamp
only by the edge of the reflector. Replace the cover and tighten the fixing knob.
