• Use only a Neutrik PowerCon NAC3FCA cable connector to connect to the power input socket. • Do not expose the fixture to rain or moisture. • Refer any service operation not described in this manual or in the MAC Quantum Wash User Guide to Martin™ Service or an authorized Martin™ Service partner.
Release the tilt lock and allow the fixture to cool before packing it in its flightcase. The anti-shock material in the MAC Quantum Wash flightcase is designed to protect the head without the tilt lock applied. Release the tilt lock when transporting the fixture in the flightcase. Leaving the tilt lock applied may cause damage that is not covered by the product warranty.
Warning! The MAC Quantum Wash has a powerful pan motor. The torque reaction when the head is panned suddenly can cause the base to move if the fixture is standing unsecured on a surface. Do not apply power to the MAC Quantum Wash unless the base is securely fastened to a surface or to rigging hardware.

8. Check that other lighting fixtures cannot project light at the MAC Quantum Wash from a distance of less than 3 m (10 ft.), as intense illumination can damage the MAC Quantum Wash’s display.
AC power at 120-240 V (nominal), 50/60 Hz. Power input Important! Connect the MAC Quantum Wash directly to AC power. Do not connect it to a dimmer system; doing so may damage the fixture.

1. Connect the DMX data output from the controller to the MAC Quantum Wash’s data input (male XLR) socket. 2. Run the data link from the MAC Quantum Wash’s data output (female XLR) socket to the data input of the next fixture.
The user will need to clean and replace the air filter in the head and clean the MAC Quantum Wash periodically. The user may also upload firmware (fixture software) to the fixture via the DMX data input port or USB port using firmware and instructions from Martin™.
Cleaning schedules for lighting fixtures vary greatly depending on the operating environment. It is therefore impossible to specify precise cleaning intervals for the MAC Quantum Wash. Cooling fans suck in airborne dust and smoke particles, and in extreme cases fixtures may require cleaning after surprisingly few hours of operation.
4. Check that the fixture is dry before reapplying power. Lubrication The MAC Quantum Wash does not require lubrication under normal circumstances. Moving parts can be checked and a long-lasting teflon-based grease reapplied by a Martin service partner if necessary.
