The orientations shown in Pigure 3 are correct in most cases, but consult your =artin dealer or gobo
supplier if you are in any doubt about the orientation of a specific gobo type.
More reflective side towards lamp
To minimiLe the ris7 of gobo overheating
and damage, the more reflective side of a
coated gobo must normally face towards the
lamp.
Pocus is easiest to maintain if you install all gobos in the same plane of focus. This means
that on one gobo wheel, coated sides should all face the same way. eowever, because of
the ris7 of heat damage, the first priority is normally to ensure that more reflective sides all
face towards the lamp.

To avoid heat problems, certain colored textured glass gobos are best installed with the
colored/textured side towards the lamp. If in doubt, consult your =artin dealer or gobo
supplier.

The less reflective side of a coated gobo will
absorb more heat, and must therefore
normally face away from the lamp.
