Basic features
Pan and tilt
Loose the mounting screw of the tripod or the appropriate fixing
screw of the mounting clamp to pan the product. Tighten the
screw to avoid unintended movement. Loose the tilt-lock to tilt
the product to the desired angle. Tighten the tilt-lock-lever to
avoid unintended movement.
To adjust the beam angle
Turn one of the focus knobs beneath the lens tube to adjust the
beam angle continuously. The entire lens tube moves in and
out. Two mechanisms protect the product from being dam-
aged:
• A predetermined braking point prevents the product from
damage, when the focus knob is turned with too high torque
at either end of the focus range.
• The self-impeding focus gear prevents the lens tube to move
itself in or out when the product is operated in a tilted position.
Use of accessories for beam shaping and light design
You can mount accessories such as a barndoor, filter holder or
scrim on the front side of the product:
• Firmly press the button at the side of the top latch to open the
top latch.
• Insert the accessory from the upside into the brackets until the
safety catch engages. Slightly tilt the safety catch with your
finger for support.
• Close the top latch. Make sure that the hook of the top latch
engages into the holding ring of the accessory.
