SAFETY INFORMATION
LIGHTING SYSTEM SAFETY
DANGER
NEVER use lighting system in rain, snow or
areas of high humidity that could generate
electrical storms.
WARNING
NEVER disconnect any emergency or safety devices.
These devices are intended for operator safety.
Disconnection of these devices can cause severe injury,
bodily harm or even death. Disconnection of any of
these devices will void all warranties.
CAUTION
NEVER attempt service on a running machine.
NOTICE
To prevent the lighting system from overturning, NEVER
use in winds that exceed 22 mph (10 m/s).
The lighting system should only be used in temperatures
between 23° to 104°F (-5° to 40° C). Failure to comply
with these operating parameters could cause the lamp
to malfunction and shorten the ballast life.
NOTICE
NEVER leave any grease or oil residue on lamp surface
when replacing or removing lamp. This can create hot
spots, reducing the service life of the lamp.
ALWAYS make sure lamp surface is clean and dry.
ALWAYS replace with MQ recommended type lamp. See
parts section of this manual.
If applicable, ALWAYS make sure the lamp guard is
installed correctly. NEVER deform the lamp guard.
NEVER unplug the lamp’s AC power cable during
operation.
ALWAYS have a trained technician to install and
remove lamp or replace any damaged fi xture wiring.
BALLOON SAFETY
WARNING
To prevent serious burns, NEVER touch
or unzip the balloon envelope when the
lamp is on.
CAUTION
ALWAYS keep the lighting system in proper running
condition.
Fix damage to lighting system and replace any broken
parts immediately.
ALWAYS store equipment properly when it is not being
used. Equipment should be stored in a clean, dry location
out of the reach of children and unauthorized personnel.
LAMP SAFETY
WARNING
NEVER attempt to replace lamp with the power on.
Always unplug the power cord from the generator or
power source when changing the lamp.
ALWAYS allow a suffi cient amount of time for the lamp to cool
before changing. The possibility exists of severe burns.
CAUTION
NEVER use force when installing the lamp. Excessive force
could cause the lamp to break, causing bodily harm.
ALWAYS keep the balloon away from sharp objects and
excessive amounts of heat.
NOTICE
To prevent balloon deformation, NEVER use lighting
system in strong winds.
DO NOT place the balloon inside its protective cover
until the lamp has had a suffi cient 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.
Replace balloon immediately if damaged. A damaged
balloon will not infl ate properly, and may become more
damaged by touching the hot lamp surface.
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.

SAFETY INFORMATION
GENERATOR SAFETY
If using a generator to power lighting system,
refer to applicable generator manual safety
information section.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
DANGER
Lighting system is equipped with a ground pin on the
power plug. For your protection, ALWAYS complete the
grounding path. NEVER insert the AC power plug into a
2-prong receptacle to operate lighting system.
When applying power to the lighting system, ALWAYS
connect the AC power plug to a 3-prong receptacle that
is grounded. The possibility exists of electrical shock,
electrocution and even death if the lighting system is
not grounded.
NEVER operate lighting system or
handle any electrical equipment while
standing in water, while barefoot,
while hands are wet or in the rain. A
dangerous electrical shock could
occur, causing severe bodily harm
or even death.
Power Cord/Cable Safety
DANGER
NEVER let power cords or cables lay in water.
NEVER use damaged or worn cables or cords. Inspect
for cuts in the insulation
NEVER grab or touch a live power
cord or cable with wet hands. The
possibility exists of electrical shock,
electrocution or death.
Make sure power cables are securely connected.
Incorrect connections may cause electrical shock and
damage to the lighting system.
NOTICE
ALWAYS make certain that proper power or extension
cord has been selected for the job. See Cable Selection
Chart in this manual.
ALWAYS make sure the area above
the lighting system is open and clear
of overhead power lines and other
obstructions. Contact with overhead
power lines or other obstructions
could result in equipment damage,
electrical shock, electrocution and
even death.

SAFETY INFORMATION
LOADING AND UNLOADING
If lighting system is equipped with a transport lifting hook,
refer to the following safety information.
CAUTION
Before lifting, make sure that lighting system parts are
not damaged and screws are not loosened or lost.
ALWAYS make sure crane or lifting device has been
properly secured to lifting hook of the equipment.
NEVER lift the equipment while lighting system is
running.
Make sure the mast is completely lowered before lifting
the lighting system.
Use adequate lifting cable (wire or rope) of suffi cient
strength.
Use one point suspension hook and lift straight upwards.
TRANSPORTING SAFETY
NOTICE
When transporting the lighting system, if applicable,
always place in stow position and place mast in its
carrying case.
ALWAYS remove balloon/lamp assembly from the mast
when transporting lighting system. This will prevent
damage to the bulb due to vibration.
NEVER leave the balloon/lamp exposed during transport.
Exposure to excess wind or rain could damage the
balloon’s nylon cover.
ALWAYS place balloon inside its protective cover during
transport. Be sure the cover is secured tightly around the
balloon/lamp assembly.
Never allow any person or animal to stand underneath the
equipment while lifting.
DO NOT lift machine to unnecessary heights.

GENERAL INFORMATION
The Multiquip GloBug GB114BS, and GB114BP are
general purpose portable glare-free lighting systems.
Typical applications for these types of lighting systems
include construction sites, emergency road crews and
backyard parties.
BALLOON ENVELOPES
The GloBug lighting system can be confi gured with a
variety of balloon envelopes (canopy). Please contact the
MQ sales department for the balloon of your choice. The
GloBug GB114BS and GB114BP shipped from the factory
with the drum type balloon.
LIGHTING
Multiquip's GloBug lighting system is comprised of one
"Metal Halide" 1000-watt lamp. This lamp has an output of
112,000 lumens. Typical lighting coverage is in excess 150
ft. (46 meters) in a 360 degree pattern.
POWER
These GloBug lighting systems are powered by a
portable ballast that can be hand carried. The input power
requirements for operating the lighting system is 120 VAC,
60 Hz @ 9.5 amps
GB114BP
When only a complete lamp assembly is required please
order Model GB114BP. This model number includes the
lamp, protective guard, balloon protective covering and all
other components that make up the lamp assemby.
TRANSPORT
The GB114 lighting systems can be transported quite easily.
The GB114BP consists of a balloon/lamp, power cable
and a ballast, and it has a combined weight of 61 lbs (28
kg). The GB114BS consists a balloon/lamp, power cable,
ballast and offset pole, and it has a combined weight of
83 lbs (38 kg).
For ease of service or transport, the lamp assembly is
equipped with a quick-disconnect connector that allows
the lamp fi xture to be removed quickly. This feature is
extremely useful during transport of the lighting system. It
is always best to remove the lamp and pack it safely so it
will not be damaged.
GB114BS
The GB114BS lighting system (offset pole) is designed to
be attached to a external piece of a equipment such as a
paver (Figure 4). This system is equally easy to assemble.
Simply attach the supplied support clamps to an external
pole or support and you are ready.
