Installation Procedures

Hanging the Luminaire

The VLX™ Wash Luminaire can be hung horizontally or vertically from any structure designed to
work with the type of load created by this moving luminaire. Two mounting bracket assemblies
(provided) are used to attach truss hooks or other mounting hardware as required. Many compatible
truss hooks are available from different manufacturers for your particular needs.
A minimum of one hook per truss hook bracket is required. If mounting method does not use truss
hooks, two attachment points per truss hook bracket are required. When attaching more than one point
on a single bracket, the attach points must be spaced as far apart as possible using the supplied
mounting holes.
Install mounting hardware and brackets:
Step 1. Install truss hooks on two provided truss hook brackets as required.
Note: Various types of truss hooks can be used. The Mega Claw truss hook (as shown in the example
above) as well as many other standard hooks, can be ordered separately.
