POTENTIAL INTERNAL FIXTURE DAMAGE FROM EXTERNAL SOURCES OF LIGHT BEAMS

External sources of light beams from direct sunlight, lighting moving head xtures, and lasers, which
are focused directly towards the exterior housing and/or penetrate the front lens opening of ADJ
lighting xtures, can cause severe internal damage including burning to optics, dichroic color lters,
glass and metal gobos, prisms, animation wheels, frost lters, iris, shutters, motors, belts, wiring,
discharge lamps, and LEDs.

This issue is not specic only to ADJ lighting xtures, it is a common issue with lighting xtures
from all manufacturers. Although there is no true way to fully prevent this issue from happening, the
guidelines below can prevent any potential damage from occurring if followed. Contact ADJ Service
for more details.

DO NOT EXPOSE THE FIXTURE AND/OR FRONT LENS OPENING TO LIGHT BEAMS FROM DIRECT
SUNLIGHT, OTHER LIGHTING MOVING HEAD FIXTURES, AND LASERS WHILE UNPACKING,
INSTALLATION, USE, AND EXTENDED IDLE TIMES OUTDOORS.
DO NOT FOCUS A LIGHT BEAM FROM ONE LIGHTING FIXTURE DIRECTLY TOWARDS ANOTHER.

Screw one clamp via a M12 screw and nut into the Omega bracket. Insert the quick-lock fasteners of the
Omega bracket into the respective holes on the bottom of the Focus Spot 5Z. Tighten the quick-lock
fasteners fully clockwise. Pull the safety cable through the opening located on the base plate and

Focus Spot 5Z Installation

When installing the unit, the trussing or area of installation must be able to hold 10 times the weight
without any deformation. When installing the unit must be secured with a secondary safety attachment,
e.g. and appropriate safety cable. Never stand directly below the unit when mounting, removing, or

servicing the unit.

Overhead mounting requires extensive experience, including calculating working load limits, installation
material being used, and perodic safety inspection of all installation material and unit. If you lack
these qualications, do not attempt the installation yourself.

These installaiton should be checked by a skilled person once a year.

The Focus Spot 5Z is fully operational in three dierent mounting positions, hanging upside-down
from a ceiling or trussing, sideways on trussing, or set on a at level surface. Be sure this xture is
kept at least 12m (40ft) away from any ammable materials (decoration etc.). Always use and install
a safety cable as a safety measure to prevent accidental damage and/or injury in the event the
clamp fails (see previous page). Never use the carrying handles for secondary attachment.
