Maintenance

The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are to be inspected
by an expert after every four years in the course of an acceptance test.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are to be inspected
by a skilled person once a year.

The following points have to be considered during the inspection:

1. 

All screws used for installing the device or parts of the device have to be tightly connected and must

    not be corroded.

2. 

There may not be any deformations on housings, fixations and installation spots.

3. 

Mechanically moving parts like axles, eyes and others may not show any traces of wearing.

4. 

The electric power supply cables must not show any damages or material fatigue.

The Showtec Revolution 250 requires almost no maintenance. However, you should keep the unit clean.

Otherwise, the fixture’s light-output will be significantly reduced. 

Disconnect the mains power supply, and

then wipe the cover with a damp cloth. Do not immerse in liquid. Wipe lens clean with glass cleaner and a
soft cloth. Do not use alcohol or solvents.

The front PC lens will require weekly cleaning, as smoke-fluid tends to build up residues, reducing the light-
output very quickly.
The cooling-fans, dichroic colour-filters, the gobo-wheels, the gobos and the internal lenses should be
cleaned monthly with a soft brush. 

Please clean internal components once a year with a light brush and

vacuum cleaner. 

Be careful not to damage the internal components when using an air-jet. To ensure a

proper function and smooth rotation of the gobo wheel, we recommend lubricating every six months. Do not
use excess lubrication.

Keep connections clean. Disconnect electric power, and then wipe the DMX and audio connections with a
damp cloth. Make sure connections are thoroughly dry before linking equipment or supplying electric power.

Changing the Lamp

1.

 Disconnect mains power supply, and allow 15 minutes to cool down. Loosen the 2 screws on back of the

    housing.

2.

 Gently pull out the lamp board.

3.

 Follow directions for installing a new lamp, page 8.

Replacing a Fuse

Power surges, short-circuit or inappropriate electrical power supply may cause a fuse to burn out. If the fuse
burns out, the product will not function whatsoever. If this happens, 

follow the directions below to do so.

1.

 Unplug the unit from electric power source.

2.

 Insert a flat-head screwdriver into a slot in the fuse cover. Turn the screwdriver to the left, at the same

    time gently push a bit (Turn and Push). The fuse will come out.

3.

 Remove the used fuse. If brown or unclear, it is burned out.

4.

 Insert the replacement fuse into the holder where the old fuse was. Reinsert the fuse cover. Be sure to

    use a fuse of the same type and specification. See the product specification label for details.
