Introduction: The multiple award-winning F8 LED Fresnel from Zylight

is the next generation of Fresnel lights. By incorporating a special

manually, wirelessly or via DMX controller.

Safety Precautions

IP Rating:

The F8 is rated IP54 for weather resistance: Ingress of dust is not
entirely prevented, but it will not interfere with satisfactory operation.
Splashing water or light rain or snow will also have no harmful effect.
While the F8 is protected against light moisture and dust exposure,
please protect the instrument when shooting in extreme conditions and
note that the instrument is not rated to be submerged in water, or
exposed to prolonged periods of moisture. Always use your best
judgment and protect the instrument from sustained moisture
exposure.

• To reduce the risk of electrical shock or re, do not
submerge this xture in water.

• Do not spill large amounts of water or other liquids into or on
to your xture.

• Do not attempt to operate this unit if the power cord has been
frayed or broken. Do not attempt to remove or break off the

ground prong from the electrical cord. This prong is used to reduce
the risk of electrical shock and re in case of an internal short.

• Disconnect from main power before making any type of

power.

• Always mount this xture in safe and stable matter. Always use a

safety cable as part of a secure installation. This includes securing
the barn doors with a safety cable.

• Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to

be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them,
paying particular attention to the point they exit from the xture.

• Cleaning: The xture should be cleaned only as recommended by

the manufacturer. See page 10 for cleaning details.

• Heat: The instrument should be situated away from heat sources

such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliances
