SAFETY INFORMATION
• Installation
Make sure all the parts for fixing the projector are in a good state of repair.
Make sure the point of anchorage is stable before positioning the projector.
The safety rope, properly hooked onto the fitting and secured to the framework, must
be installed so that, if the primary support system fails, the fitting falls as little as pos-
sible. If the safety rope gets used, it needs to be replaced with a genuine spare.
• Minimum distance of illuminated objects
The projector needs to be positioned so that the objects
hit by the beam of light are at least 1 metres (3'3") from
the lens of the projector.
• Minimum distance of flammable materials
The projector must be positioned so that any flammable materials are at least 0.10
metres (4") from every point on the surface of the fitting.
It is permissible to mount the fitting on normally flammable surfaces.
• Maximum ambient temperature
For the fitting to operate well and reliably, the ambient temperature should not exceed
35°C (95°F).
• IP20 protection rating
The fitting is protected against penetration by solid bodies with a diameter of over
12mm (0.47") (first digit 2), but not against dripping water, rain, splashes or jets of
water (second digit 0).
• Protection against electrical shock
This fitting is classified, in accordance with the type of protection against electrical
shock, in Class I. It must therefore be connected to a power supply system with effi-
cient earthing.
It is, moreover, recommended to protect the supply lines of the projectors from indi-
rect contact and/or shorting to earth by using appropriately sized residual current
devices.
• Hooking up to the supply mains
The operations for connecting to the electricity mains must be carried out by a quali-
fied electrical installer.
Check that the mains frequency and voltage correspond to the frequency and voltage
for which the projector is designed, given on the electrical data label.
This label also gives the input power. Refer to this to evaluate the maximum number
of fittings to connect to the electricity line in order to avoid overloading.

• Maintenance
Before starting any maintenance work or cleaning the projector, cut off power from the
supply mains.
After switching off, do not remove any parts of the fitting for 4 minutes. After this time
the likelihood of the lamp exploding is virtually null. If it is necessary to replace the
lamp, wait for another 15 minutes to avoid getting burnt.
The fitting is designed to hold in any splinters produced by a lamp exploding. The lens-
es must be mounted and, if visibly damaged, they have to be replaced with genuine
spares.
• Temperature of the external surface
The maximum temperature that can be reached on the external surface of the fitting,
in a thermally steady state, is 100°C (212°F).
• Lamp
- Carefully read the "operating instructions" provided by the lamp manufacturer.
- Immediately replace the lamp if damaged or deformed by heat.

• Unpacking
Open the cardboard box, take out
(3' 3")
the polystyrene wrapping and sepa-
rate it, freeing the projector.
