MANIA EF4 OVERVIEW
AC POWER
Before operation ensure that factory setting of voltage and frequency match local power supply.
Always ground (earth) the fixture electrically.
Use only a source of AC power that complies with local building and electrical codes and has both overload and ground-fault protection.
Note: If the external power cord of this luminaire is damaged, it shall be replaced by a special cord exclusively available from your Martin dealer.
Configuring for local mains power
The Mania EF4 has a switch-selectable power supply that can operate in the following voltage ranges at 50-60 Hz:
• 115 - 120 volts (setting 115)
• 220 - 240 volts (setting 230)
Warning Do not operate the fixture on a power supply that falls outside of these ranges.
Select the operating range using the red AC supply switch at the rear of the fixture.
Installing a plug on the mains lead
Warning! For protection from dangerous electric shock, the fixture must be grounded (earthed). The AC mains supply shall have overload and ground-fault protection.
Important! Verify that the feed cables are undamaged and rated for the current requirements of all connected devices before use.
The fixture's mains lead may require a grounding-type cord cap that fits your power distribution cable or outlet. Consult a qualified electrician if you have any doubts about proper installation.
Following the cord cap manufacturer's instructions, connect the appropriate wires to ground (earth), live, and neutral. The following table below shows some common wire identification schemes.
Function Wire (EU) Wire (US)
| live | brown | black |
| neutral blue white | ||
| ground | yellow/green | green |
Applying power
1 Connect the mains power cable to the fixture at the 3-prong IEC male input socket at the rear of the fixture.
2 Turn the lamp on using the power on switch.
OVERHEAD MOUNTING
The Mania EF4 is designed to be hung overhead with a clamp (not included).
Warning! Block access below the work area before proceeding.
Always use a secure means of secondary attachment.
For indoors use only.
To hang the Mania EF4 on an overhead support:
1 Verify that the structure can support at least 10 times the weight of all installed fixtures, clamps, cables, auxiliary equipment, and other items.
2 If hanging the fixture with a rigging clamp, verify that the clamp is undamaged and is designed for the fixture's weight. Bolt the clamp securely to the mounting bracket on the fixture with a grade 8.8 (minimum) M12 bolt and lock nut, or as recommended by the clamp manufacturer, through the clamp hole in the mounting bracket.
3 If permanently installing the fixture, verify that the hardware (not included) and mounting surface can bear at least 10 times the fixture's weight.
4 Working from a stable platform, clamp or fasten the fixture to the structure.
5 Install a safety cable that can hold at least 10 times the weight of the fixture through the safety cable attachment point on the fixture.
6 Loosen the swivel locks, tilt the fixture to the desired angle, and retighten.
7 Verify that the fixture is at least 1 meters (3.3 ft.) from the surface to be illuminated and at least 0.3 meters (1 ft.) from any combustible materials. Verify that the clearance around the air vents is at least 0.1 meters (4 in.).
OPERATION
3
The lamp will light when the power-on switch at the back of the fixture is turned on.
To achieve optimal results, the use of smoke effects together with your Mania EF4 is recommended.
SETTING THE TRIG MODE
Use the switch on the back of the fixture to set it to Auto or Music trig mode.
In:
- Auto Trig mode trigger signals are generated randomly. This will result in unsynchronized operation that is not in time with music.
- Music Trig mode the built-in microphone will generate trigger signals as a result of sounds that it picks up. This will result in synchronous effects in time with any music that is being played.
The Mania EF4 contains the following gobo wheel.
natural_image
Circular black-and-white graphic with eight white geometric and symbolic icons (no text or symbols)Gobo-wheel rotation is activated and deactivated using the gobo-wheel rotation switch:
- The wheel will stop when the switch is set to O.
- In Auto trig mode the wheel will rotate when switch is in position I or II.
- In Music trig mode the wheel will react to the beat of the music in position II, or will spin continuously in position I.

This chapter describes the maintenance procedures that you can perform yourself.
Warning The exterior of the fixture can become hot. Always disconnect the fixture from AC power and allow to cool for at least 20 minutes before handling or opening.
CLEANING
Regular cleaning of the elements in the optical path, as well as the air vents, is vital to maintaining the operational quality of the Mania EF4.
Important! Excessive dust, smoke fluid, and particulate buildup degrades performance and causes overheating and damage to the fixture that is not covered by the warranty.
Cleaning the air vents
To maintain adequate cooling, dust must be cleaned from the air vents periodically. Remove dust from the air vents with a soft brush, cotton swab, vacuum, or compressed air.
Cleaning optical components
Clean the optical components regularly. The presence of smudges or dust on optical surfaces can reduce the strength of the light output and the quality of the effects.
Use care when cleaning optical components and work in a clean, well lit area. The coated surfaces are fragile and easily scratched. Do not use solvents that can damage plastic or painted surfaces.
1 Disconnect the fixture from power and allow it to cool for 20 minutes.
2 Remove the thumb screw holding the cover in place.
3 Slide the fixture cover open as far as possible (there is a physical stop point that prevents access to the power supply section).
natural_image
Technical line drawing of a mechanical device with internal components and directional arrows indicating flow or movement (no text or symbols)4 Vacuum or gently blow away dust and loose particles with compressed air.
5 Remove stuck particles with an unscented tissue or cotton swab moistened with glass cleaner or distilled water. Do not rub the surface: lift the particles off with a soft repeated press.
6 Remove smoke, and other, residues with cotton swabs or unscented tissues moistened with isopropyl alcohol. A commercial glass cleaner may be used, but residues must be removed with distilled water. Clean with a slow circular motion from center to edge. Dry with a clean, soft and lint-free cloth or compressed air.
7 Close the fixture cover and tighten the thumb screw, taking care not to trap any loose wires.
LAMP MAINTENANCE
Warning Isolate electrically before re-lamping. The lamp shall be changed if it becomes damaged or thermally deformed.
Caution Hot lamp.
Only the Philips 12V EFP/8H 100W (type No 6834) lamp is supported (Martin P/N 97000004). These lamps normally last for 800 hours of operation.
Warning Installing any other lamp may damage the fixture!
Installing a lamp in the Mania EF4
1 Disconnect the fixture from power and allow it to cool for 20 minutes.
2 Remove the thumb screw holding the cover in place.
3 Slide the fixture cover open as far as possible (there is a physical stop point that prevents access to the power supply section).

7 Clean the glass bulb and reflector with a cloth, particularly if your fingers touched the glass. A clean, lint-free cloth wetted with alcohol is best.
8 Gently push the lamp into the holder until it snaps into place.
9 Close the fixture cover and tighten the thumb screw.
MAINS FUSE
The Mania EF4 uses a time-delay fuse for protection against current overload. An indication that the fuse may have blown is that when power is applied and the lamp is switched on, no light is produced.
If the fuse blows repeatedly, there is a fault with the unit that requires service by a Martin technician.
Never bypass the fuse or replace it with one of another size or rating.
Replacing the main fuse
1 Unplug the mains cable from the input socket.
2 Pry open the fuse holder (located next to the mains power connector) with a flat-head screwdriver and remove the fuse.
3 Replace the fuse with one of the same type. The fuse rating is listed on the serial number label and in "Specifications" on page 19.
4 Replace the fuse holder.
