LAMP (RE)PLACEMENT
In case of replacement of the lamp or maintenance, do not open the fixture within
10 minutes until the unit cools down after switching off. Always unplug the unit
before servicing! Always use the same type of spare parts (bulbs, fuses, etc.)
When replacing parts, please only genuine spare parts.
• Unplug the mains cable.
• Wait for about 10 minutes until the unit has been cooled
down.
• Unscrew the knobs that close the lamp compartment of
the fixture and open it.
• On the inside you will see the lamp socket. Tear the
lamp socket gently out of the lamp compartment.
• Unplug the old lamp. Hold the lamp socket while
unplugging the lamp instead of pulling the cable!
• Hold the lamp socket while pressing the new lamp
gently in the socket.
Attention! Check the label on the backside of the
device or see the technical specifications in this manual
to know which lamp should be used. Never install lamps
with a higher wattage! Lamps with higher wattage generate temperatures the device was not designed
for. If the device uses a lamp transformer, it will burn due to current overload.
• Don't touch the bulb with bare hands! This drastically shortens the lifespan of the lamp. If you touched
the lamp, clean it with a cloth and a little denatured alcohol. Wipe the lamp off before installing.
• Put the new lamp back inside the unit. Be sure that the wires don't touch the lamp.
• Close the lamp compartment with the screws.
• Done!

OVERHEAD RIGGING

• Important: The installation must be carried out by qualified service personal only. Improper
installation can result in serious injuries and/or damage to property. Overhead rigging requires
extensive experience! Working load limits should be respected, certified installation materials
should be used, the installed device should be inspected regularly for safety.
• Make sure the area below the installation place is free from unwanted persons during rigging, de-
rigging and servicing.
• Locate the fixture in a well ventilated spot, far away from any flammable materials and/or liquids. The
fixture must be fixed at least 50cm from surrounding walls.
• The device should be installed out of reach of people and outside areas where persons may walk by or
be seated.
• Before rigging make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point load of 10times the
device's weight.
• Always use a certified safety cable that can hold 12times the weight of the device when installing the
unit. This secondary safety attachment should be installed in a way that no part of the installation can
drop more than 20cm if the main attachment fails.
• The device should be well fixed; a free-swinging mounting is dangerous and may not be considered!
• Don't cover any ventilation openings as this may result in overheating.
• The operator has to make sure that the safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved
by an expert before using them for the first time. The installations should be inspected every year by a
skilled person to be sure that safety is still optimal.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
• Once connected to the mains the device starts running.
• Use the switch for the gobos:
"0" = continuous rotation
o
o "1" = sound activated rotation
• Use the switch for the inner reflector:
o "0" = continuous rotation
"1" = sound activated rotation
o
The additional scan mirrors on Patriot and Tomahawk always work in sound activated mode.
• Regular breaks during operation are essential to maximize the life of this device as it is not designed for
continual use.
• Do not switch the unit on and off in short time intervals as this reduces the lamp life.
• The units' surface temperature may reach up to 85°C. Don't touch the housing with bare-hands during
its operation.
• Always unplug the unit when it is not used for a longer time or before replacing the bulb or start
servicing.
• In the event of serious operating problems, stop using the fixture and contact your dealer immediately.
• Important: Never look directly into the light source! Don't use the effect in the presence of persons
suffering from epilepsy.
MAINTENANCE
• Make sure the area below the installation place is free from unwanted persons during servicing.
• Switch off the unit, unplug the mains cable and wait until the unit has been cooled down.
During inspection the following points should be checked:
• All screws used for installing the device and any of its parts should be tightly fastened and may not be
corroded.
• Housings, fixations and installations spots (ceiling, truss, suspensions) should be totally free from any
deformation.
• When an optical lens is visibly damaged due to cracks or deep scratches, it must be replaced.
• The mains cables must be in impeccable condition and should be replaced immediately when even a
small problem is detected.
