Strong XENON GLADIATOR II Instruction Manual page 5

THE XENON GLADIATOR II is shipped in sections which must be assembled. Lifting straps
on the yoke assembly permit assembling the spotlight on the floor and later hoisting it to an elevated position.
ASSEMBLE THE FOUR BASE LEGS to the lower square section of the base column using
the 3/8-16 x 2-3/4 inch hex head cap screws and lockwashers provided. Insert a leveling foot and locknut in
each of the four leg brackets and level the base before continuing the installation.
WHEN INSTALLED in a permanent location, the leveling feet must be removed, and the
clearance holes in the base leg brackets used for hardware (user supplied) to bolt the base to the floor or
platform. If it is desired to have the unit portable, when operating, the leveling feet must be adjusted down until
the weight of the spotlight has been shifted from the casters to the leveling feet.
THE INNER TUBE and support yoke has three holes to permit adjusting the height of the
spotlight. The three holes are on four inch centers and will allow an optical height of approximately 53 inches,
57 inches, and 61 inches above floor level to the optical center of the lamphouse and lens system. The leveling
feet may be adjusted through an additional two inch range. Insert the height location pin through the hole in the
outer tube and one of the holes in the inner tube.
THE HORIZONTAL SWING and vertical tilt locking knobs are on the right hand (operating)
side of the yoke assembly. Tighten both of these locking devices securely before attempting to place the lamp-
house and lens system on the support yoke.
PLACE THE LAMPHOUSE and lens system on the yoke assembly, with the spot size control
handle to the right hand (operating) side, the same as the locking controls on the yoke. Line up the four
mounting holes in the bottom of the base rail with the four mating holes in the support yoke and secure using the
four sets of 3/8-16 screws, nuts and washers.
ATTACH THE LAMPHOUSE CABLE CONNECTOR to the mating receptacle on the power
supply. The lamphouse and power supply connectors are keyed for correct pin alignment; make certain pins are
seated before tightening the locking ring. DO NOT energize the xenon power supply before the xenon bulb is
correctly installed into the lamphouse.
EARLIER MODELS of Strong xenon spotlights included a heavy-gauge green ground wire in
the lamphouse cable assembly. This ground wire was attached to a ground stud connected to the power supply
cabinet. Current models of Strong power supplies include a 1/4-20 stud in the cabinet adjacent to the MS
connector to allow ground termination of older spotlights.
