Operation manual for HEDLER DX 15 and HEDLER DF 15.
Please, read the following technical information and the Hedler safety
instructions carefully before using the light unit.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

HEDLER light units are designed for professional use, they are assembled by applying precision methods and tested individually for function
and quality. The daylight flood light DX-light unit as well as the focusable daylight DF-light unit is provided with an integrated U-bracket and
a friction brake and a 5/8" Quick-Lock light stand attachment. After loosening the hex key screws by approx. 2 turns, the U-bracket can be
moved back and forth in its keyway for gravity adjustment and it is turnable for right and left hand use.
The daylight flood light HEDLER DX15 and the focusable daylight HEDLER DF15 use AC of 230 V and modern metal halide 150 W SE T bulbs,
which can be re-ignited after 2 - 3 minutes while the cooling down has started by switching-off the light unit. As a special feature, the HEDLER
DX15 and the HEDLER DF15 do not have a fan, which means they suit ideal for original sound recording.
On its front side, the aluminium housing of the HEDLER DF15 holds the Fresnel lens while the HEDLER DX15 has a safety glass. Both of them
are equipped with the QuickFit adapter for attaching all of the HEDLER lightformers quickly and easily.
Interchangeable reflectors with bayonet ring can be attached in the following way: place the rim of the ring into the guide grooves of the upper
studs and the round opening over the cone-shaped bolt, and lock it by a turn to the left. To attach the rotatable 4-Leaf barndoors or a MaxiSoft
folding reflector, place the rim of the ring into the guide grooves of the upper studs, and then push the complete reflector towards the QuickFit´s
cone-shaped bolt until the ring locks in the bolt´s groove. Detach the reflector by lifting the QuickFit´s handle, moving the lower side of the
reflector away from the light unit´s housing, and then lifting the reflector´s ring out of the guide grooves of the upper studs.
The focusing option of the HEDLER DF15 allows to adjust the light beam from spot up to flood light characteristic. Simply turn the focusing knob
located at the back of the housing and the size of the light beams diameter can be adjusted precisely to your lighting needs or ideas - intuitively.
