Mounting the Fixture

You can mount your SHAPESHIFTER fixture suspended from a support system (such as a truss) or
freestanding on its base.
WARNING!
Equipment suitable for dry locations only. Do not expose this
equipment to rain or moisture.
CAUTION!
SHAPESHIFTER fixtures must be installed and operated by trained
personnel only.
Always use a secondary safety cable when mounting this fixture.
Do not mount within .5 meters (1.6 feet) of a flammable object.
Note: Due to the wide variety of possible lighting designs, High End Systems
cannot make specific mounting recommendations. Consider the following
procedures as suggested guidelines only.

Mounting the Fixture Upright

CAUTION!
Do not mount the fixture upright without the four rubber feet
attached.
To mount the fixture upright, place the fixture on a sturdy, stable non-flammable surface that will
support more than the 26.9 kg (59 lb) weight of the SHAPESHIFTER fixture. If the surface is
above floor height, use safety cables to secure the fixture to the surface.

Truss Mounting

When mounting the fixture on a truss or another type of support:
• Verify the truss or support will handle the combined weight of all the devices on the truss.
Each SHAPESHIFTER fixture weighs 26.9 kg (59 lb).
• Always mount a SHAPESHIFTER fixture using the mounting bracket assembly that shipped
with your fixture and a safety cable attached to the fixture's base.
WARNING!
Before mounting, disconnect power to the fixture. If it has been
operating, allow the fixture to cool for five minutes before handling.
CAUTION!
Only experienced lighting personnel should attempt to hang a lighting fixture
to an appropriate theatrical truss.
