IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION! Be careful with your operations. With a
dangerous voltage you may suffer a dangerous electric shock when touching the wires! Make sure
that the available voltage is not higher than stated in this manual.
If the device has been exposed to drastic temperature fluctuation (e.g. after transportation), do not
switch it on immediately. The arising condensation water might damage your device. Leave the device
switched off until it has reached room temperature.
This device falls under protection-class I, therefore it is essential that the blue conductor gets
connected to earth.
Make sure that the power-cord is never crimped or damaged by sharp edges. Check the device and
the power-cord from time to time.
If the external flexible cable or cord of this device is damaged, it shall be exclusively replaced by the
manufacturer or his service agent or a similar qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
Shields, lenses or ultraviolet screens shall be changed if they have become visibly damaged to such
an extent that their effectiveness is impaired, for example by cracks or deep scratches.
Never let the power-cord come into contact with other cables! Handle the power-cord and all
connections with the mains with particular caution!
Always disconnect from the mains, when the device is not in use or before cleaning it. Only handle the
power-cord by the plug. Never pull out the plug by tugging the power-cord.
DANGER OF BURNING! Never touch the device during the operation! The housing heats up to the
housing temperature T

moisture or dust. There should not be any cables lying around. You endanger your own and the safety
of others!
The symbol
M
determines the minimum distance from lighted objects. The minimum distance
between light-output and the illuminated surface must be more than 2 meters.

Replacing the lamp
DANGER TO LIFE! Only install the lamp with the device switched off! Unplug from mains before!
CAUTION! The lamp has to be replaced when it is damaged or thermally deformed due to the heat!
The lens must be replaced if it is visibly damaged and therefore operating with reduced efficiency.
Before replacing the lamp, unplug mains lead and let the lamp cool down (approx. 5 minutes).
During the installation do not touch the glass-bulbs bare-handed! Please follow the lamp
manufacturer’s notes!
Do not install lamps with a higher wattage! Lamps with a
higher wattage generate temperatures the device was not
designed for. Damages caused by non-observance are not
subject to warranty.
For the installation, you need one HMI lamp with up to max.
575W.
Procedure:
Step 1: Open the Service Lid on the top of the device
by unscrew the one screw.
Step 2: Loose the two screws at the two ends of the lamp.
Step 3: Remove the old lamp.
Step 4: Install a same type lamp into the lamp-socket,
fasten the two screws by hands.
Step 5: Close the Service Lid and screw the screw.
Installing
The installation of the device has to be built and constructed in a way that it can hold 10 times the
weight for 1 hour without any harming deformation.
The installation must always be secured with a secondary safety attachment, e.g. an appropriate catch
net. This secondary safety attachment must be constructed in a way that
no part of the installation can fall down if the main attachment fails.
Caution: Devices may cause severe injuries when crashing down! If you
have doubts concerning the safety of a possible installation, do NOT
install the device!
DANGER OF FIRE! When installing the device, make sure there is no
highly inflammable material (decoration articles, etc.) within a distance of
min. 0.5 M.
Mount the device with the mounting-bracket to your standing system. The
hole in the mounting bracket has a diameter of 13 mm.
Adjust the desired inclination-angle via the mounting-bracket and fix
the fixation screws.
DANGER TO LIFE! Before taking into operation for the first time, the
installation has to be approved by an expert or by qualified
ENGINEERS/TECHNICIANS only!
Connection with the mains
DANGER TO LIFE! The electric connection must only be carried out by a qualified electrician!
In order to connect the device to the mains, you have to install a power-plug.
The occupation of the connection-cables is as follows:
Cable Pin International
Brown Live L
Blue Neutral N
Yellow/Green Earth
The earth has to be connected!
Connect the device to the mains with the power-plug.
If the device will be directly connected with the local power supply network, a disconnection switch with
a minimum opening of 3 mm at every pole has to be included in the permanent electrical installation.
Lighting effects cannot be connected to dimming-packs.
DANGER TO LIFE! Before taking into operation for the
first time, the installation has to be approved by an
expert!
OPERATION:
After you connected the fixture to the mains,
the lamp will be on. Please see the right figure,
you can adjust the 1, 2, 3, 4 four places to
center the lamp in the reflector, and you

2)There must not be any deformations on housings,
fixations and installation spots(ceiling, suspension.
trussing).
3)The electric power supply cables must not show any damages, material
fatigue (e.g. porous cables) or sediments. Further instructions
depending on the installation spot and usage have to be adhered
by a skilled installer and any safety problems have to be
removed.
DANGER TO LIFE! Disconnect from mains before
starting maintenance operation!
We recommend a frequent cleaning of the device.
Please use a moist, lint-free cloth. Never use alcohol or
solvents!
