Cleaning; Maintenance - Robe iSpiider User Manual

14. Cleaning

Regular cleaning will not only ensure the maximum light output, but will also allow the fixture to function reliably
throughout its life.
The frequency of cleaning depends on the environment in which the fixture operates: damp, smoky or particu-
larly dirty environments can cause greater accumulation of dirt on the fixture housing.
The front glass cover of the head will require cleaning on a monthly basis.
A soft lint-free cloth dampened with a solution of water and a mild detergent is recommended, under no circum-
stances should alcohol, solvents or abrasives be used!
DANGER !
Always disconnect the fixture from mains before starting any cleaning or maintenance
work.
Important! Never use alcohols (ethanol, methanol, isopropyl alcohol), acetone and
another aggressive solvents for cleaning the front lens array.
Potential stains caused by hard water (water that has high mineral content) can be effectively removed by
means of non-abrasive descaler (e.g. EverStar descaler).
Note: potential foggy front lens array does not influence function of the fixture and does not subject to complaint

15. Maintenance

In order to ensure the fixture remains in good condition and does not fail prematurely, we recommend regular
maintenance.
The following points have to be considered during fixture inspection:
- All outside covers and screws should be checked for damages, scratches or corrosion.
- All connectors and its rubber caps should be checked for damages or sediments.
- All screws and fasteners has to be securely tightened. Check for any deformation on the housing and
rigging points. Damaged rigging points or unsecured rigging could cause the fixture to fall and seriously injure
people.
-Electric power supply cable must not show any damage or material fatigue.
-Fans and heatsink should be checked for sediments or dirt/debris accumulation.
User can do the folloving operations:
-main fuse replacement
-battery replacement
-silica gel desiccant replacement
Another maintenance, cleaning and service operations should be carried out by trained technicians only.
If you need any spare parts, please order genuine parts from your local Robe distributor.
IMPORTANT: in case of service intervention, the front glass cover (or base cover) should be removed as short
time as possible (about 1-2 hours depending on air humidity) otherwise silica gel in the small box (boxes) in
the fixture head (base) may become damp.
If you have removed front glass cover (or base cover) and you need to interrupt your service work for long time
(hours, days), we recommend to place the front glass cover on the head (base cover on the base) and fasten
it provisionally by means of two screws, another possibility is unscrewing small box (boxes) with silica gel from
the head (base) and put it (them) to a sealed container with limited access of air (e.g. sealed plastic bag).
Checking plastic parts of the fixture.
The plastic parts of the fixture should be checked for damages and beginning cracks at least every two months.
If hint of a crack is found on some plastic part, do not use the fixture until the damaged part will be replaced.
Cracks or another damages of the plastic parts can be caused by the fixture transportation or manipulation and
also aging process may influence plastic materials.
This checking is necessary for both fixed installations and preparing fixtures for renting. Any free moving parts
inside of the fixture head, cracked plastic or any plastic part not sitting properly in place need to be immediately
replaced.
