1.1

DANGER! Prevent Hazards that Will Result in Serious Injury or Death

Avoid direct exposure to a hot or operating lamp. Discharge lamps operate at high
internal pressure and can explode without warning. The extremely hot shards of
broken glass from an unshielded lamp will cause serious injury. Looking directly at an
unshielded lamp can cause serious eye damage. Direct exposure to UV radiation
can cause skin burns. Operate the lamp only with all covers in place. Turn off the
lamp and allow to cool for at least 60 minutes before removing any head cover.
Wear safety goggles whenever the lamp is exposed.
1.2

WARNING! Prevent Hazards that Could Result in Serious Injury or Death

Do not look directly into the beam of light: brief exposure can cause eye injury. Avoid
exposing your eyes to direct radiation! Do not view the light output with optical
instruments or any device that may concentrate the beam. Risk Group 2 product
according to EN 62471.
Do not illuminate surfaces within 16 M (52.5 ft.) of the fixture. When concentrated in
a narrow beam, the light output is powerful enough to cause burns or fire in
illuminated objects at near range.
Installation shall be performed by qualified personnel only in accordance with local
regulations. To prevent falls, suspend the GT-1 with hardware specifically designed
and rated for the purpose and a form of backup attachment such as a safety cable.
Hot surfaces! Avoid touching lights during the operation. This can cause injuries
and/or damage. Avoid placing lighting fixtures in locations where there is risk of
accidental contact. Allow fixtures to cool before handling.
Connect the fixture only to a grounded (earthed) power supply with overload
protection for protection against electric shock. Verify that power cables and
connectors are in good condition. Replace a blown fuse with one of the specified
rating only.
