ensure that it will work for a long time without problems. Please do not shake UFO 8 and avoid using
brute force when installing or operating it.

moisture or dust. The minimum distance between UFO 8 and the illuminated surface must be more
than 3 feet.

persons not qualified for operating it.
All modifications to UFO 8 will invalidate the warranty. There are absolutely no exceptions.

4. Installation

Please ensure that the UFO 8 is hung using the appropriate "C" clamp or half cheeseboro attached to
the U bracket supplied with the fixture. A safety chain or cable should also be used as a secondary
point of holding the fixture in case the clamp comes loose. Never hang the fixture without a safety
chain or cable.
If you are not qualified or have any doubts about hanging the UFO 8 then do NOT hang it.
Do not clamp the cable to the U bracket or clamp. That is not a secondary safety point.
A secondary safety point is any point that will adequately hold the UFO 8 if the "C" clamp or half
cheesboro fails. Then the safety cable would be the backup and stop the fixture from falling to the
ground. So do NOT

fix the safety to the same place that the "C"clamp is attached.
