Cleaning and maintenance

Installation Maintenance: The operator has to m ake sure that t he unit is operating saf ely and has the installa-

tions and electronics checked by an expert every 2 years.

The following points have to be considered during the inspection:

1) All screws used for installing the device or part of the device have to be tightly connected and must not be corroded.

2) There must not be any deformations on the housing, fixation and installation spots (ceiling, suspension, trussing).

3) Mechanically moved parts like axles and other must not show any traces of wearing and must not rotate with unbal-
ances.

4) The electronic 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.

Disconnect from mains before starting maintenance operation!

Caution Danger to life!

We recommend a frequent cleaning of the device. Please use a moist, lint free cloth. Never use alcohol or solvents!

1) The objective lens will require periodic cleaning on usage and environment. Environment with foggers will require
more periodic cleaning as fog fluid tends to build up residues, reducing the light output.

2) The cooling-fans should be cleaned monthly. DO NOT blow high pressure air into fans as incorrect rotation can
damage the fans operation.

3) The lenses may be cleaned with soft brush using soapy water.

4) The interior of the fixture should be cleaned using a vacuum.

5) We recommend proper lubrication of the motor wheel. The quantity of the oil must not be excessive in order to avoid
oil run outs when motor wheel rotates

Note: There is no serviceable parts i nsid e the dev ice except for the fuse. Maintenance and serv ice op erations
are to be carried out by authorized dealers.

Replacing the fuse: Only replace the fu se with the same typ e and rating.

Replacing the power cable: If the power cable of this device becom es damaged, it has to be r eplaced by aut hor-

ized dealers only

Should you have further questions , please contact your dealer.
