1 Introduction
Every effort has been made to ensure the information in this document is accurate and reliable; however, due to
constant research, the information in this document is subject to change without notice.
This manual is intended for professionally trained operators of Christie high-brightness projection systems.
These operators are qualified to replace the lamp and air filter, but should not attempt to install or service the
Roadie HD+35K projector. Only qualified Christie technicians who are knowledgeable about the hazards
associated with high-voltage, ultraviolet exposure, and the high temperatures generated by the projector lamp
are authorized to assemble, install, and service the projector.

Safety Precautions

1.1.1 AC / Power Precautions

• Use only the locking type AC power cord that is provided with the projector. DO NOT
attempt operation if the AC supply is not within the specified voltage and power range.
• As a safety feature the projector is equipped with a three-wire plug with a third (grounding)
pin. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact an electrician to have the
outlet replaced. DO NOT defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type plug.
• DO NOT attempt operation if the AC supply is not within the rated voltage range, as speci-
fied on the license label.
• Disconnect projector from AC before opening any enclosure.
• The following applies to all countries except China:
• A 30A maximum double pole, (UL listed for North America) wall circuit breaker is required
for the 7kW switching ballast. It must be part of the building installation and easily
accessible.
• A 20A maximum double pole, (UL listed for North America) wall circuit breaker is required
for the projector head. It must be part of the building installation and easily accessible.
• DO NOT allow anything to rest on the power cord. Locate the projector where the cord can-
not be damaged by persons walking on it or objects rolling over it. Never operate the pro-
jector if the power cable appears damaged in any way.
• DO NOT overload power outlets and extension cords as this can result in fire or shock haz-
ards.

Never look directly into the projector lens or at the lamp. The extremely high
brightness can cause permanent eye damage. For protection from ultraviolet
radiation, keep all projector housings intact during operation. Protective
safety clothing and safety goggles are recommended when servicing.
FIRE HAZARD! Keep hands, clothes, and all combustible material away from
the concentrated light beam of the lamp.
Position all cables where they cannot contact hot surfaces or be pulled or
tripped over.
