You will need to turn the screws A&B one after another a slight turn clockwise and counter clockwise until you set the hot spot of the light in the center of the image. If no hot spot can be seen then set the lamp till the light is evenly distributed.
Rigging the fixture

2. Unit may cause severe injures if you have doubts concerning the safety do not install.
3. Unit is to be 24inches away from flammable materials (decoration material)
4. Use high quality installation equipment to hang unit.
When rigging a unit it is very important that you follow common safety procedures. Rigging requires extensive experience includ­ing but not limited to calculating working loads, material being used and periodic safety inspections. If you lack these qualifica­tions, do not attempt the installation yourself, instead use a professional structural rigger.
When rigging the unit always be secured with a secondary safety attachment. The installation location of the projector has got to be built in the way that it can hold 10 times the weight for 1 hour with out any harming. Installation should be checked at least one time a year by a skilled person.

Cleaning and maintenance
Installation Maintenance: The operator has to make sure that the unit is operating safely and has the installations and electron-
ics 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, eyes and other must not show any traces of wearing and must not rotate with unbal­ances.
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 gobos, dichroic color filters and internal 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 inside the device except for the lamp and the fuse. Maintenance and service operations are to be carried out by authorized dealers.
Replacing the fuse: Only replace the fuse with the same type and rating.
Replacing the power cable: If the power cable of this device becomes damaged, it has to be replaced by authorized dealers only
In order to avoid hazards.
Should you have further questions , please contact your dealer.
