cable to supply only one fixture with mains power, the
replacement cable must also be rated 6 A minimum, have
three conductors 18 AWG or 0.75 mm² minimum conductor
size, have an outer cable diameter of 6 - 15 mm (0.2 - 0.6 in.)
and be temperature-rated to suit the application. In the USA
and Canada the cable must be UL listed, type SJT or
equivalent. In the EU the cable must be type H05VV-F or
equivalent.
To connect fixtures to mains power in a chain, you must first
obtain 14 AWG or 1.5 mm

Introduction
The RUSH PAR 2 CT Zoom™ is a bright single-lens LED PAR Can. It offers
white color temperature mixing using twelve 10 W CWUW (warm white and
ultra white) LEDs and a 10° to 60° motorized zoom. This fixture also offers
electronic dimming and strobe and features a bracket for floor or truss
mounting.
The PAR 2 CT Zoom™ can be controlled using any DMX-compliant
controller.
The fixture is supplied with a 1.5 m (5 ft.) power cable (local power plug not
included) and a folding mounting bracket.
Before using the product for the first time
1. Read ‘Safety information’ on page 4 before installing, operating or
servicing the fixture.
2. Unpack and ensure that there is no transportation damage before using
the fixture. Never attempt to operate a damaged fixture.
3. If the fixture is not going to be hard-wired to an AC mains power source,
install a local power plug (not supplied) on the end of the supplied power
cable.
4. Before operating, ensure that the voltage and frequency of the local
power source match the mains power requirements of the fixture.
5. Check the RUSH support pages on the Martin Professional website at
www.martin.com for the most recent user documentation and technical
information about the fixture. RUSH by Martin™ user manual revisions
are identified by the revision letter at the bottom of the inside cover.

Physical installation
Read ‘Safety information’ on page 4 before installing the
fixture.
The fixture is designed for indoor use only and must be used in
a dry location with adequate ventilation. Ensure that none of
the fixture’s ventilation slots are blocked.
Fasten the fixture to a secure structure or surface. Do not
stand it on a surface or leave it where it can be moved or fall
over. If you install the fixture in a location where it may cause
injury or damage if it falls, secure it as directed in this user
manual using a securely anchored safety cable that will hold
the fixture if the primary fastening method fails.
Martin™ can supply safety cables and rigging clamps that are suitable for
use with the fixture (see ‘Accessories’ on page 28).
Fastening the fixture to a flat surface
The fixture can be fastened to a hard, fixed, flat surface that is oriented at
any angle. Ensure that the surface can support at least 10 times the weight
of all fixtures and equipment to be installed on it.
Fasten the fixture securely. If you install the fixture in a location where it may
cause injury or damage if it falls, install a safety cable as directed in
‘Securing with a safety cable’ on page 11.
Mounting the fixture on a truss
The fixture can be clamped to a truss or similar rigging
structure in any orientation. When installing the fixture
hanging vertically down, you can use an open-type clamp
such as a G-clamp. When installing in any other orientation,
you must use a half-coupler clamp (see illustration on right)
that completely encircles the truss chord.
To clamp the fixture to a truss:
1. Check that the rigging structure can support at least 10 times the weight
of all fixtures and equipment to be installed on it.
2. Block access under the work area.
3. Fold the legs of the mounting bracket together and bolt a rigging clamp
securely to the mounting bracket. The bolt used must be M12, grade 8.8
steel minimum. It must pass through both mounting bracket legs and be
fastened with a self-locking nut.
