be blacked out, while the entire shutter-blade holding
unit can be rotated using lever
⑦
. It is possible to
regulate the intensity of the light beam by adjusting
lever
⑨
.
If the colour changer is mounted, the gelatine-frame of
the selected colour can also be inserted by operating on
the relevant colour lever.
Remember that the introduction of another filter
unlocks the filter previously inserted.
MAKE SURE THE LUMINAIRE IS SWITCHED OFF BEFORE
RECLOSING THE COLOUR CHANGER
MAINTENANCE
For maximum lighting performance, the lens and mirror
head must be regularly cleaned.
Always remember to disconnect the luminaire from
the mains and allow the lamp to cool down before
proceeding to any cleaning or servicing operation.
For safety reasons check (at least once yearly) that
all the electrical parts are well insulated and that the
mechanical parts are intact.
WARNING!
SWITCH OFF THE LUMINAIRE IMMEDIATELY IF A LENS
IS BROKEN OR MISSING.
RECYCLING
The product must be recycled or disposed of,
according to Directive 2002/96/CE.

LAMP CALIBRATION
Calibrate the lamp when it is hot, that is at least 4/5
minutes after ignition.
Lamp calibration can be carried out by using the
adjusting screw
⑩
. The lamp must be calibrated by
checking that the luminous spot is uniform, and
simultaneously adjusting the lamp position in the
mirror.
OPERATION
Always check that the mains voltage is the same to
the one indicated on the label affixed on the luminaire
or on the relevant ballast before switching on the
luminaire, and that the colour code has been conformed
to if you have mounted or replaced the power supply
plug.
(blue = neutral; yellow/green = earthing).
If a colour changer is fitted, be sure that this is open.
To ignite the luminaire, switch on the general safety
circuit breaker of the ballast and press the relevant ON
button for no longer than 2 seconds.
IF THE LUMINAIRE IS NOT IGNITED, DO NOT INSIST.
SWITCH OFF THE GENERAL SWITCH AND REPEAT THE
WHOLE PROCEDURE AFTER ABOUT 10 SECONDS.
WARNING!
HIGH VOLTAGE IS PRESENT IN THE LUMINAIRE DURING
THE LAMP IGNITION PHASE.
When a new luminaire is switched on, a little emission
of smoke from the ventilation openings is absolutely
normal and not dangerous. This is due to the drying of
residual oil and/or paint and it is not dangerous at all.
We recommend the first ignition to last no longer than
15 minutes max so to allow the paint to dry and to
allow an extended component life.
FOCUS AND REGULATION
The widening or narrowing of the luminous beam (zoom
and focus) is carried out by co-ordinated shifting of the
two levers
⑤
on the right side of the luminaire which
control the movements of the lenses’ guides.
The width of the luminous beam can be furtherly
controlled through lever
⑧
, which controls the
diaphragm opening/closure (allowing for total blacking
out). Through levers
⑥
part of the luminous beam can
