Fixture Transport And Handling | Maintenance Guidelines - Elation ARISTE MONET EAM990 User Manual

FIXTURE TRANSPORT AND HANDLING
The Artiste Monet is a large format fixture that contains delicate
optics and glass filters. While this product was carefully designed to be
roadworthy, it must be handled carefully during transportation. Before
transport, ensure that the color flags inside the unit are placed in an
OPEN position. For superior impact protection, the fixture is shipped in
a custom fitted high-density Foam Inlay (FIL). This FIL must be used
inside the road-cases for transportation.
DO NOT Tip the case over, and avoid all shocks and rough handling, especially "tipping", the practice of tipping
the fixture-case over to its side and onto a hard surface. The case must ride on its wheels so that the fixture-
head remains horizontal during transportation.
MAINTENANCE GUIDELINES
DISCONNECT POWER BEFORE PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE!
CLEANING
Frequent cleaning is recommended to insure proper function, optimized light output, and an extended life. The
frequency of cleaning depends on the environment in which the fixture operates: damp, smoky or particularly
dirty environments can cause greater accumulation of dirt on the fixture's optics. Clean the external lens
surface at least every 20 days with a soft cloth to avoid dirt/debris accumulation. NEVER use alcohol, solvents,
or ammonia-based cleaners.
MAINTENANCE
Regular inspections are recommended to insure proper function and extended life. There are no user serviceable
parts inside this fixture, please refer all other service issues to an authorized Elation service technician.
Should you need any spare parts, please order genuine parts from your local Elation dealer.
Please refer to the following points during routine inspections:
A detailed electric check by an approved electrical engineer every three months, to make sure the circuit
-
contacts are in good condition and prevent overheating.
Be sure all screws and fasteners are securely tightened at all times. Lose screws may fall out during normal operation
-
resulting in damage or injury as larger parts could fall. Check for any deformations on the housing, color lenses,
rigging hardware and rigging points (ceiling, suspension, trussing). Deformations in the housing could allow
for dust to enter into the fixture. Damaged rigging points or unsecured rigging could cause the fixture to fall
and seriously injure a person(s).
-
Electric power supply cables must not show any damage, material fatigue or sediments. NEVER remove the
ground prong from the power cable.
