ERA 800 Performance Safety and Installation Manual
Physical installation
Warning! The ERA 800 Performance has a powerful pan motor. The torque reaction when the head is
panned suddenly can cause the base to move if the fixture is standing unsecured on a surface. Do
not apply power to the ERA 800 Performance unless the base is securely fastened to a stable
surface or structure.
Warning! Use two clamps to rig the fixture. Do not hang the fixture from only one clamp. Lock each
clamp with both 1/4-turn fasteners. Fasteners are locked only when turned a full 90° clockwise.
Warning! When suspending the fixture above ground level, secure it against failure of primary
attachments by attaching a safety cable that is approved as a safety attachment for the weight of the
fixture to the attachment point in the base. Do not use the carrying handles for secondary
attachment.
Warning! When clamping the fixture to a truss or other structure at any other angle than with the
yoke hanging vertically downwards, use two clamps of half-coupler type. Do not use any type of
clamp that does not completely encircle the structure when fastened.
Warning! You can fasten the fixture to a surface with ratchet straps passed through the carrying
handles so that the fixture cannot fall over, but do not over-tighten the ratchet straps or you may
damage the carrying handles and leave the fixture in an unsafe condition.
Warning! Position or shade the head so that the front lens will not be exposed to sunlight or another
strong light source from any angle – even for a few seconds. See Figure 2. The ERA 800
Performance’s lens can focus the sun's rays, creating a potential fire hazard and causing damage.
Important! Do not point the output from other lighting fixtures at the ERA 800 Performance, as
powerful light can damage the display.
See Figure 2. Lenses can focus sunlight and
strong light, presenting a risk of fire and
damage to the fixture. Shield or shade the
head if necessary.
The ERA 800 Performance can be fastened to a surface such as a stage or clamped to a truss in any
orientation.
Clamps must be half-coupler type (see Figure 4) or equivalent type that fully encircles the truss unless the
fixture is installed with the yoke hanging vertically downwards, in which case other clamp types that are
approved for the supported weight may be used.
