Protection from electric shock
Do not expose the product to water or moisture.
Disconnect the product from AC power before
carrying out installation or maintenance and
when the product is not in use.
Ensure that the product is electrically connected to ground
(earth).
Use only a source of AC power that complies with local building
and electrical codes and has both overload and ground-fault
(earth-fault) protection.
Socket outlets or external power switches used to supply the
product with power must be located near the product and easily
accessible so that it can easily be disconnected from power.
Replace blown fuses with ones of the specified type and rating.
Isolate the product from power immediately if the power plug
or any seal, cover, cable, or other component is damaged,
defective, deformed, wet or showing signs of overheating.
Do not reapply power until the problem is corrected.
Before connecting the product to power, check that all power
distribution equipment and cables are undamaged and rated
for the electrical requirements of all connected products.
Protection from burns and fire
Do not operate the fixture if the ambient
temperature (T
a
) exceeds 40° C (104° F).
The surface of the product casing can reach up
to 45° C (113° F) after 5 minutes of operation and
during a steady on state. Avoid contact by persons
and materials. Allow the fixture to cool for at least
10 minutes before handling.
Keep flammable materials well away from the
fixture. Keep all combustible materials (e.g. fabric, wood, paper)
at least 100 mm (4 in.) away from the fixture head.
Ensure that there is free and unobstructed airflow around the
fixture. Provide a minimum clearance of 100 mm (4 in.) around
fans and air vents.
Do not illuminate surfaces within 200 mm (8 in.) of the fixture.
Do not attempt to bypass thermostatic switches or fuses.
Do not stick filters, masks or other materials onto any optical
component.
The fixture’s lenses can focus the sun’s rays inside the fixture,
creating a risk of fire and damage. Do not expose the front of
the fixture to sunlight or any other bright light source.
Protection from eye injury
Lighting fixtures emit possibly hazardous radiation.
Do not look at an operating lamp. Eye injury
may result.
To minimize the risk of eye injury or irritation,
disconnect lighting fixtures from power at all times when not in
use, and provide well-lit conditions to reduce the pupil diameter
of anyone working on or near them.
Do not look at output from lighting fixtures with magnifiers,
telescopes, binoculars or similar optical instruments that may
concentrate the light.
Ensure that persons are not looking directly into a lighting fixture
when it lights up suddenly. This can happen when power is
applied, when the fixture receives a remote control signal,
or when certain control menu items are selected.
Protection from injury
Do not attempt to repair a defective product or
modify the product in any way. LEDs are not user-
replaceable. Refer all service to your Martin dealer
or contact Martin directly for technical support
through
www.martin.com/contact-support
.
Fasten the fixture securely to a fixed surface or structure when
in use. The fixture is not portable when installed.
Ensure that any supporting structure and/or hardware used can
hold at least 10 times the weight of all the devices they support
and complies with locally applicable regulations.
If suspending from a rigging structure, fasten the fixture to a
rigging clamp. Do not use safety cables as the primary means
of support.
If the product is installed in a location where it may cause injury
or damage if it falls, install as directed a secondary attachment
such as a safety cable that will hold the machine if a primary
attachment fails. The secondary attachment must be approved
by an official body such as TÜV as a safety attachment for the
weight that it secures, must comply with EN 60598-2-17 Section
17.6.6 or BGV C1 / DGUV 17, and must be capable of bearing a
static suspended load at least six times the weight of the fixture
(or more if required by locally applicable regulations).
Allow enough clearance around the head to ensure that it
cannot collide with an object or another fixture when it moves.
Check that all external covers and rigging hardware are
securely fastened.
Block access below the work area and work from a stable
platform whenever installing, servicing or moving the fixture.
Do not operate the fixture with missing or damaged covers,
shields or any optical component.
Do not lift or carry the fixture by its head. Support the fixture
by its base only.
In the event of an operating problem, stop using the fixture
immediately and disconnect it from power. Do not attempt
to use a fixture that is obviously damaged.
Do not modify the fixture in any way not described in this
manual or install other than genuine Martin parts.
Refer any service operation not described in this manual
to a qualified technician.
Flashing light can trigger epileptic seizures in flicker-sensitive
persons. Provide notice when strobe lighting is in use at the
entrance(s) to the venue. Mount flashing lights as high above
head height as practicable and avoid extended periods of
continuous flashing, particularly at 10 to 20 flashes per second.
Stop lights from flashing immediately if a person has an epileptic
seizure.
Note that whenever power is applied to the fixture, it will reset
moving parts to their home (neutral) positions. Be prepared for
the head to move. A reset usually takes around 20 seconds.
Physical installation
The THRILL Mini Profile is designed for indoor
use only and must be used in a dry location with
adequate ventilation. Ensure that none of the
fixture
’s ventilation slots are blocked and all
minimum distances are observed.
The fixture must be oriented vertically, either upright on the floor
or other horizontal surface, or suspended upside-down from
a suitable structure.
Fasten the THRILL Mini Profile to a secure structure or surface.
Do not stand it on a surface or leave it where it can be moved
or fall over. If you install the fixture in a location where it may
cause injury or damage if it falls, secure it as directed using a
securely anchored safety cable that will hold the fixture if the
primary fastening method fails.
Fastening the fixture to a flat surface
The fixture can be fastened to a hard, fixed, flat surface. Ensure
that the surface and all fasteners used can support at least 10
times the weight of all fixtures and equipment they support and
comply with locally applicable regulations.
Fasten the fixture securely. Do not stand it on a surface or leave
it where it can be moved or fall over. If you install the THRILL
Mini Profile in a location where it may cause injury or damage
if it falls, secure it as directed with a securely anchored safety
cable that will hold the fixture if the primary fastening method
fails and complies with locally applicable regulations.
Mounting the fixture on a truss
The fixture can be clamped to a truss or similar
rigging structure. It must be suspended vertically,
hanging downwards only. Use a suitable rigging
clamp such as a half-coupler clamp (shown to right)
fastened to the included clamp attachment bracket.
To clamp the fixture to a truss:
1. Check that the rigging structure can support at least 10
times the weight of all fixtures and equipment to be installed
on it and complies with locally applicable regulations.
2. Block access under the work area.
3. Fasten a rigging clamp securely to the supplied clamp
attachment bracket. The bolt used must be M12, grade 8.8
steel minimum, and fastened with a self-locking nut or
wing-nut/self-locking washer combination. Comply with
instructions provided from the manufacturer of the clamp
being used.
4. Fasten the hanging bracket to the fixture by screwing the
two hex type socket cap screws provided fully into holes
A
in the base (see above) using the lock washers provided.
5. Working from a stable platform, hang the fixture vertically
on the truss and fasten the rigging clamp onto the truss.
6. Secure the fixture with a safety cable as directed.
7. Check that the head will not collide with other objects.
