CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
Disconnect power before cleaning or maintenance.
CLEANING
Frequent cleaning is recommended to insure proper function, optimized light output,
and an extended life. The frequency of cleaning depends on the environment in
which the fixture operates: damp, smoky or particularly dirty environments can
cause greater accumulation of dirt on the fixture’s optics.
Clean the external lens surface at least every 20 days with a soft cloth to avoid
dirt/debris accumulation.
Never use alcohol, solvents, or ammonia based cleaners.
MAINTENANCE
Regular inspections are recommended to insure proper function and extended life.
There are no user serviceable parts inside this fixture, please refer all other service
issues to an authorized Elation service technician. Should you need any spare parts,
please order genuine parts from your local Elation dealer.
Please refer to the following points during routine inspections:
A detailed electric check by an approved electrical engineer every three
months, to make sure the circuit contacts are in good condition and prevent
overheating.
Be sure all screws and fasteners are securely tightened at all times. Lose screws
may fall out during normal operation resulting in damage or injury as larger parts
could fall.
Check for any deformations on the housing, color lenses, rigging hardware and
rigging points (ceiling, suspension, trussing). Deformations in the housing could
allow for dust to enter into the fixture. Damaged rigging points or unsecured
rigging could cause the fixture to fall and seriously injure a person(s).
Electric power supply cables must not show any damage, material fatigue or
sediments. Never remove the ground prong from the power cable.
