engine and allow it to cool. DO NOT

smoke around or near the machine. Fire or explosion could result from fuel vapors, or if fuel is spilled on a hot engine.

NEVER operate the GloBug in an explosive atmosphere or near combustible materials. An explosion or fire could result causing severe

bodily harm or even death.

Topping-off to filler port is dangerous, as it tends to spill fuel. Wipe up any spilled fuel immediately.

GLOBUG LIGHTING SYSTEM — RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION

■

ALWAYS make sure that the GloBug is secure on firm level ground so that it cannot slide or shift around, endangering workers. Also keep the immediate area free of bystanders.

■

ALWAYS keep area behind GloBug clear of people while raising and lowering mast.

■

To prevent the GloBug from overturning, NEVER use in winds that exceed 22 mph(10m/s).

■

To prevent the GloBug from rolling, ALWAYS place the GloBug on a firm flat surface. Surface slant should not exceed 5 degrees.

■

To prevent the GloBug from rolling, ALWAYS apply the parking brake. For additional safety place chock blocks behind the wheels.

■

The GloBug must use a generator that is at least 220 lbs. (100 kg) minimum. This will prevent the GloBug from tipping over.

■

The GloBug should only be used in temperatures between 23-104 degrees Fahrenheit (-5 to 40 degrees Celsius). Failure to comply with these operating parameters could cause the lamp to malfunction and shorten the ballast life.

■

NEVER use the GloBug in

rain, snow

or areas of high

humidity that could generate electrical storms.

To prevent serious burns, NEVER touch or unzip the balloon envelope when the lamp is on.

To prevent the balloon from deformation, NEVER use GloBug in strong winds.

DO NOT place the balloon inside its protective cover until the lamp has had a sufficient amount of time to cool down. This will prevent the balloon's nylon cover from being burned (touching the lamp surface).

ALWAYS place the balloon inside its protective cover after each use. This will prolong the life of the balloon material, keeping it protected from harsh environmental elements.

DO NOT use a damaged balloon. Replace balloon immediately if damaged. In addition, a damaged balloon will not inflate properly, and may become more damaged by touching the hot lamp surface.

ALWAYS keep the balloon away from sharp objects and excessive amounts of heat (

fire!

DO NOT use excessive force when zipping and unzipping the balloon. Be gentle with the zipper mechanism. If the zipper is broken the balloon will become unusable.

■

ALWAYS make sure the lamp surface is clean and dry.

■

ALWAYS replace with MQ recommended type lamp. See

parts section of this manual.

■

NEVER use force when installing a lamp. Excessive force could cause the lamp to break causing bodily harm.

■

ALWAYS make sure the lamp holder (spring loaded) is securely affixed to the top of the lamp. This will prevent the lamp from touching (breakage) the lamp guard or pipe frame.

■

ALWAYS make sure the lamp guard is installed correctly. NEVER deform the lamp guard.

■

NEVER attempt to replace lamp with the power on. Always un-plug the power cord from the generator when changing the lamp.

■

NEVER unplug the lamp's AC power cable during operation.

■

ALWAYS allow a sufficient amount of time for the lamp to

cool
