The safety and suitability of lifting equipment, installation location, anchoring method, mounting hardware and electrical installation is the responsibility of the installer. All local safety regulations and legal requirements must be observed when installing and connecting the Exterior 1200 Image Projector.

  • Page 15: Location And Mounting

    Installing the lamp and removing protective packaging See Figure 2. Before the Exterior 1200 Image Projector can be used, you must open it, remove the shipping bracket (A) from the lenses and protective foam insert (B) from around the CMY flags, and then install the lamp supplied with the product. It will almost certainly be easiest if you do this now, before the luminaire is installed in its final location.
