12. Projector Suspension/Stacking 12. PROJECTOR SUSPENSION/STACKING 12.1 Stacking Projectors How to stack projectors Up to 2 projectors can be stacked on each other without using extra tools or accessories. 1. Put the second projector on the first one, matching the rigging points of the second projector with the rigging sockets of the first projector.
12. Projector Suspension/Stacking AUTION Be sure the safety working loud of the used security cables and appropriate connectors are suffi- cient to support one projector. Refer to the supplier of the security cable for safety details 12.2 Projector Suspension What is provided? Slots (A) are provided on the four sides of the stacking frame (bottom side) which allow the mounting of four doughty clamps in combination with a hinge joint.

12. Projector Suspension/Stacking Image 12-5 Mounting the doughty clamps How to hook the clamp onto the truss beam 1. Open the clamp by loosening the clamp lock. (image 12-6) 2. Hook the clamp onto the truss beam. The built-in clamp trigger automatically shuts the clamp around the truss beam. 3.
13. Maintenance of the Projector 13. MAINTENANCE OF THE PROJECTOR 13.1 Air Filters About maintaining the air filters It is recommended that you replace the air filters (located at the bottom of the projector) when you replace the lamp - or sooner, in dusty or dirty environment.
13. Maintenance of the Projector Image 13-2 Image 13-3 Available kit All the 5 air filters are assembled to 1 kit, order number R401045K 13.2 Cleaning the lens To minimize the possibility of damaging the optical coating or scratching exposed lens surface, we have de- veloped recommendations for cleaning the lens.
Page 94
13. Maintenance of the Projector Necessary tools Toraysee cloth (delivered together with the lens kit). Order number : R379058. How to clean the lens ? Proceed as follow : 1. Always wipe lenses with a CLEAN Toraysee cloth. 2. Always wipe lenses in a single direction. Warning: Do not wipe back and forwards across the lens surface as this tends to grind dirt into the coating.
