INSTRUCTIONS
Setting Up the BoomBox
1. For Monolights and studio strobes with Bowens mounts, align the mounting
tabs with the Bowens mount and insert the BoomBox into the Bowens mount.
Turn the BoomBox clockwise until it locks.

2.
Open the BoomBox, and push the center ring
over the shaft until it’s all the way in, just like
an umbrella.
Tip: You may find it easier to hold the base of the
shaft through the side opening while pushing the
center ring over it.
Optional: Attach the deflector plate to the shaft with
the thumbscrew. The deflector plate minimizes the
hot spot at the center of the box and diuses the light
for beauty dish-style wraparound light.
Try experimenting with the curved side of the deflector facing out or in, to see
which orientation gives you the lighting that’s best for your exposure.
Deflector Extension (BB-48DB Only)
The deflector extension moves the deflector further away from the BoomBox’s
interior for a wider and more even light spread. To install the deflector on the
extension, follow these steps:
1.
Open the BoomBox, and screw the threaded end of the extension into the
shaft.
2. Attach the deflector to the extender with the thumbscrew.
Attaching the Diusers
Changing the Adapter Ring
Adapter Rings for Broncolor, Elinchrom, and Profoto are available separately.
1.
Four Philips screws and washers secure the
adapter ring to the BoomBox. Pull back the
fabric, and use a Phillips screwdriver to remove
the screws and washers.
Tip: The BoomBox fabric is stretched tightly around the ring. Don’t be afraid to use a
little force to pull the fabric back to reveal the screws.
2. Slide the adapter ring out of the BoomBox.
3.
Pull back the fabric and insert the replacement
adapter ring.
4.
Replace the washers and screws, and tighten
them to secure the ring to the BoomBox.

The inner and outer diusers add two levels of diusion that soften and spread the
light for an even and flattering eect. The diusers can be used with or without
the deflector plate.
1.
Attach the inner diuser by connecting the diuser’s clips to the elastic loops
inside the BoomBox.
2.
Attach the outer diffuser by pressing the
touch-connect strips against the inner rim of
the BoomBox.

Removing the BoomBox
To remove the BoomBox from a Bowens mount:
1. Press the light fixture’s Bowens release.
2. Turn the BoomBox counterclockwise and remove it from the light.
3.
If necessary, remove the diuser, deflector, and extension. Then close the
BoomBox by carefully pulling on the center ring.
