From 0% to 49.7% the gobo rotates
through 540° (1
1/2 turns).
From 50% to 75% the gobo rotates
more quickly at first and then slows
down to a complete stop.
From 75.5% to 100% the gobo begins
turning in the opposite direction, slowly at first and then gradually faster.
The change occurs instantaneously as
the slider reaches different preset levels on the graduated scale.
Vertical movement (Tilt) of the mirror
occurs gradually as the slider is
advanced. From the zero position mirror movement is linear and continuous
up to the opposite end of travel. The
mirror can be stopped at any intermediate angle.
• GOBO ROTATION - channel 1
• COLOUR WHEEL - channel 2
In the 0% to 50% range of adjustment
the colour change in response to
movement of the potentiometer is linear and continuous so that the slider
can be stopped in intermediate positions to obtain a two-colour beam.
From 50% to 100% the wheel rotates
continuously with speed increasing
steadily from 0 to 300 rpm.
• DIMMER/STOPPER/STROBE - channel 4
In the 0% to 50% range of adjustment,
the dimmer opens gradually to maximum aperture.
Strobe effect is produced from 54.7%
to 95%, with frequency increasing
from 1 to 7 flashes/second.
The aperture remains fixed between
95% and 100% of the range.
Horizontal movement (Pan) of the mirror occurs gradually as the slider is
advanced. From the zero position mirror movement is linear and continuous

IMPORTANT: isolate the projector from the electrical power supply before commencing maintenance work of any description. The maximum temperature on the
outer surface of the projector under normal operating conditions is shown on the
lamp change label. After switching off, do not remove any part of the projector for
the time indicated on the lamp change label (1).
Once this time has elapsed, the risk of a lamp exploding is practically zero.If the
lamp needs changing, wait a further 20 minutes to avoid the risk of burns. In the
event of a lamp exploding, the appliance is designed to prevent fragments of glass
from being scattered. The lenses supplied with the appliance must be fitted at all
times, and if visibly damaged, must be replaced with genuine spares.

IMPORTANT: for uniform distribution of the light beam, the lamp must be positioned so that the glass pip (31) on the bulb does not coincide with the optical axis
of the projector.With this in mind, locate the pip as high up as possible.
CAUTION: The projector uses a high pressure discharge lamp with
external starter.
- When fitting a new lamp, read the manufacturer’s instructions carefully.
- The lamp must always be changed without delay if damaged or deformed by heat.
•
Changing the colour filters
Having opened the projector, identify
the filter to be changed, grip firmly
between thumb and forefinger and
push against the spring clip (32) until
free of the fixed clips (33).
Bend the filter outwards and remove.
Offer the new filter to the spring clip
(32) and anchor behind the two fixed
clips (33).
•
Changing metal gobos
Having opened the projector, identify
the gobo to be replaced and push
gently toward the clips (34) until free.
Take the selected replacement from
the holder (35) on the dimmer/stopper/strobe plate.
Offer the new gobo to two clips, push
gently and locate behind the remaining clips, checking for flatness.
•
Routine cleaning
To maintain the light output of the projector undiminished, parts that tend
to accumulate dust and grease must
be cleaned periodically.
In most circumstances, the projector
will give long and trouble-free service
if these simple guidelines are followed.To remove dirt from the lenses
and filters, use a soft cloth moistened
with any liquid detergent suitable for
cleaning glass.
IMPORTANT: do not use solvents or
alcohol
Parts that need cleaning frequently.
Parts that need cleaning monthly.
Use a soft brush to clean the gobo
wheel whenever necessary.
Internal components should also be
given a general clean once a year , dislodging dust and dirt with a brush and
removing it simultaneously with a vacuum cleaner.
•
Lubrication
To ensure that the rotating gobos continue to operate smoothly, the bearings should be lubricated with oil every
six months: use only Kernite LUBE K
AHT (p/n 164028/801).
Apply the oil using a syringe with a fine
needle.
Avoid over-lubricating, as excess oil
could be spattered during rotation.
•
Lubrication of mirror head clutches
Check periodically that the grease
applied to the mirror pan and tilt
clutches is in good condition; if not,
remove and regrease with Kernite
LUBE-K-AC (p/n 104034/801) to
ensure smooth and even mov ement of
the mirror.
