Proper Use
The Softbox is meant for the studio use of professional
photographers. It serves as a lightformer for special types
of Hensel flashlight units (compact flash units, flash
heads).
The Softbox must not be used for any other purpose than
that described above.
Before connecting the proper mounted Softbox to a
Hensel flashlight unit, the safety instructions on handling
with flashlight units must be strictly adhered to (please
read the user manual of the particular flashlight unit
before turning the appliance on).
Safety hints
The following safety hints are particularly designed for the
handling with Softboxes:
To avoid damage to the flashtube, mount Softboxes
before turning the flash unit on. Turn the flash unit off for
each change of Softboxes.
For detaching from the flash unit hold the Softbox care-
fully to prevent it from falling down and damaging the
protection glass dome and flashtube by the massive metal
rear.
A damaged flashtube is extremely dangerous be-
cause the electrically charged electrodes are exposed
and touching must be avoided; the unit must be
switched off and disconnected from the mains outlet
immediately. The capacitors inside may still be
charged and dangerous high voltage can still be
present at the damaged flashtube electrodes.
Due to the modeling and flashlight, each flashlight unit
emits heat. This can heat the parts of the unit and the
mounted accessories up to a dangerous level. To avoid
injuries, handle with isolating clothes or wait until parts
have cooled down.
Due to the danger of overheating, the modeling light
(max. 650W) should under no circumstances be operated
at full power for more than 20 minutes. Then adequate
cooling should be provided for.
