Rotating Gobo Replacement

WARNING: Remove power from luminaire before performing maintenance. Gobos may be HOT
after operation. Allow to cool before replacing.
WARNING: Users of VARI❋LITE® luminaires should not install or use metal gobos.
The use of metal gobos in any VARI❋LITE® product may damage the luminaire and
could void the luminaire's warranty.
To replace a rotating gobo:
Step 1. Remove power from luminaire.
Step 2. At either side of head assembly, press in front cover latch and pull cover straight back until
stopped by tether.
Step 3. Rotate gobo wheel until required gobo position is accessible at finger access cutout.
Step 4. Rotate gobo gear until open end of carrier is upward.
CAUTION: Do not touch gobos with bare fingers. Wear cotton gloves or other covering while
replacing. Clean with isopropyl alcohol and soft, lint-free cloth if required.
CAUTION: Do not pull metal spring clip carrier back too far or it will not close properly.
Step 5. If applicable, carefully pull current gobo up and out of carrier. Gobo can be easily scratched
on sides of carrier if not careful.
Step 6. Carefully install new gobo, orienting side marked "This Edge In" toward center of gobo
wheel and side marked "Lamp Side" (mirror finish) toward lamp. Gobo can be easily
scratched on sides of carrier if not careful. Ensure gobo is firmly set in carrier grooves.
