Page 6: Safety Procedures
SAFETY PROCEDURES READ CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLING XENON BULB THE XENON BULB is highly pressurized. When ignited, the normal operating temperature of the bulb increases the pressure to a level at which the bulb may explode if not handled in strict accordance to the manufacturer’s operating instructions. - Page 7 Dispose of expired bulbs that are beyond warranty in the following manner: Wrap the bulb tightly in several layers of canvas or heavy cloth. Place it on a hard surface and shatter the envelope with a sharp hammer blow. DO NOT place an unshattered bulb in an ordinary refuse container. DO NOT PERMIT UNAUTHORIZED PERSONNEL TO PERFORM OR ATTEMPT ANY PHASE OF XENON BULB HANDLING OR SERVICE.
- Page 8 700 WATT XENON BULB INSTALLATION Type 48057 Trouper CAUTION: OBSERVE ALL SAFETY PROCEDURES. Put on the protective face mask. Wear clean cotton gloves to prevent marking the quartz envelope of the bulb with fingerprints. REMOVE THE TOP COVER of the lamphouse by removing the four Holt head (tamperproof) screws with the special screwdriver provided.
- Page 9 REMOVE THE PLASTIC COVER from the xenon bulb. Store the protective cover and the original bulb packing in a secure location. The spare anode adapter (65199) is for use with an OSRAM 700 watt bulb (XBO700W/HS OFR) should such a bulb be used as a replacement. SECURE THE LAMPHOUSE COVER with the (4) tamperproof screws using the special screwdriver provided.

Page 10: Operation
OPERATION PLACE THE MODE SWITCH (on units so equipped) in the “MAN.” position and energize the xenon power supply. The lamphouse blower will start and actuate the blower interlock switch to permit bulb ignition. This lamp blower will operate continuously until the xenon power supply is de-energized. PLACE THE LAMP SWITCH in the ON position and the xenon bulb will ignite. - Page 11 MOVE THE SPOT SIZE CONTROL HANDLE on the large lens carriage to the forwardmost position to project the smallest spot possible with the iris, choppers, and dimming controls in their full open positions. Project the spot to a wall or similar flat perpendicular surface opposite the spotlight. TURN THE CENTER FOCUS CONTROL counterclockwise until a small black spot is pro- jected on the wall.
- Page 12 HANDLING THE SPOTLIGHT GENERALLY THE BEST POSITION for the operator to stand is near the center of the spot- light, on the right hand side, although the angle of tilt and the size of the porthole may alter the position for the most convenient operation.

Page 13: Exhaust System Installation
EXHAUST SYSTEM INSTALLATION IF THE SPOTLIGHT is installed in a closed booth, it is recommended to vent the lamphouse exhaust to outside atmosphere to remove the heat from the booth. THE EXHAUST STACK of the lamphouse is designed to fit a six inch diameter duct. The exhaust system must be designed and installed is a way to eliminate any possibility of a down draft or of rain dripping into the lamphouse. - Page 14 OPERATION OF OPTICAL SYSTEM THE IRIS CONTROL is the front lever which projects through the top of the optical system housing. When this lever is to the left (as viewed from the rear of the unit), the largest aperture is provided. Smaller apertures are obtained as the lever is moved to the right.
- Page 15 OPERATION OF COLOR BOOMERANG THE COLOR BOOMERANG is equipped with six color holders and an ultraviolet filter. Additional filter holders can be supplied by an authorized Strong International Dealer. TO OPERATE INDIVIDUAL COLOR FILTERS, lower the desired filter selector lever. A rocker catch located in the color disc housing holds the filter in position.
