10. Caring for your product

Cleaning
The buildup of dust, dirt and other airborne particles will reduce the fixture's light
output. It will also prevent the fixture from cooling correctly, and this will reduce the
fixture's lifetime. The rate of dirt buildup will vary depending on environmental factors
such as airborne dust, use of smoke machines, airflow from ventilation systems, etc. The
fixture's cooling fans will accelerate buildup, and any smoke particles that are present
in the atmosphere will increase the tendency for dirt to clog.
To get the best performance and lifetime from the fixture, inspect it regularly and clean
it as soon as you see signs of dirt buildup. Assess the operating environment each time
you begin to use the fixture. In dusty or smoky conditions, inspect the fixture after a few
hours and check it frequently – the fixture may attract dirt faster than you expect.
Draw up a cleaning schedule that will make sure that dirt is removed before it can
build up.
Use the following guidelines:
• Disconnect the fixture from power and allow it to cool completely before cleaning.
• Do not use solvents, abrasives or any other aggressive product to clean the fixture.
• Vacuum or use low-pressure compressed air to remove dust and loose particles from
surfaces and air vents. Prevent the blades of cooling fans from turning before you aim
a vacuum or air jet at the fan, or you may spin the fan too fast and damage it.
• Clean glass components by wiping gently with a soft, clean, lint-free cloth moistened
with a weak detergent solution. Put the solution on the cloth, not on the surface to be
cleaned. Avoid rubbing glass surfaces. If particles are stuck to the glass, try to lift them
off by dabbing them repeatedly with a cotton swab or moistened lint-free cloth.
• Dry the fixture with a soft, clean, lint-free cloth or low-pressure compressed air before
reapplying power.
Lubrication
The fixture does not normally need lubrication. If any moving parts show signs of rough
movement, consult a GLP service partner.
