Inserting Lamps

Insert lamps into both lamp holders. Twist ¼ turn to make electrical contact.

Inserting Gel Frame

The gel frame is secured to the xture by 4 spring-loaded pins. Align the pins of the
gel frame with the oval receptacle holes on the edge of the xture. Pull back the pins

and release into the receptacles to properly secure the gel frame.

Applying Gel to Frame

Option 1 – The Gel Frame comes with gel clips. Cut the gel to size
and use the clips to fasten the gel to the frame.

Note: It is recommended to attach one clip on each side and one
clip near all four corners.

Option 2 – Another method is to apply transfer tape directly to the
gel frame. The clips are not necessary when taping the gel.

Inserting Louver

Place the long edge of the Louver (LVR-I80-S) into the lower channel containing a set
of leaf springs. Press down on the Louver and slip the upper edge of the louver into

the upper channel of the xture. To remove, reverse the procedure.

Mounting the Fixture

The Flathead 80 is designed to operate on a Junior stand, hang from a Junior pipe
hanger or mount directly to a set wall.

Mount Plate Operation

Align the center pin of the Mounting Plate (MTP-K81)
to the center hole on the mating plate. Rotate plate
clockwise until the four shoulder rivets drop into the
receptacle. A locking pin will snap into place when the
plate is properly seated.

To remove the plate, pull up on the locking pin and

reverse the mounting procedure.

To loosen or tighten the lollipop, turn lock lever.
With a 180 degree turn, the lever can be adjusted to
provide the necessary clamping strength. Reorienting
the lever allows for further tightening or loosening of the
clamp.

To reorient the lock lever, pull lever away from mount.
This disengages the lever from the screw mechanism
and allows it to be reoriented.

Note: You can also use a screwdriver to adjust the
travel. Pull back on lever and adjust the screw in the
center of the lever.

Mounted on a Junior Stand
