Strobe Unit Instructions
Precautions
Read First Before Setting Up Any Lights
This compact flash unit is for indoor use only. Never use outside.
The glass dome must be installed for the safe operation of each strobe. Halogen lights and flashtubes
generate high pressure during operation and can explode, particularly if the kit is chilled in winter
during transport.
Ventilation slots of each flash unit must be kept clear of any obstruction to avoid over heating.
Do not disconnect any cords while the unit is powered up.
Never move a flash unit while it is operating. Always turn the flash off for any adjustments.
Do not run cables long distances where they could be damaged from dollies, ladders or furniture.
Do not expose any flash unit to humidity or water.
Do not connect any accessories from any other manufacturer, even if they use the same or similar
connectors.
Eye damage may occur if the flash unit is set up less than 5 meters from your subject.
Ventilate any closed rooms regularly to prevent a build-up of inadmissible ozone concentrations
which may occur during operation.
Reflectors, speedrings and other accessories heat up during long operations. To avoid injuries, handle
with gloves or wait until parts have cooled to make any adjustments.
Never over tighten any fittings. Always finger tight any knobs.
