Frequently Asked Questions - MINI LOGO BEGLEC

How to replace the bulb of the MINI LOGO?

Unplug the device and wait 10 minutes for it to cool down. Unscrew the bulb compartment, remove the socket, take out the old bulb without touching the reflector. Insert a new EFP 100W/12V bulb (identical), then close the compartment.

How to change the gobo?

Unplug and let it cool for 10 min. Open the bulb compartment, unscrew the gobo holder screw, remove the holder. Remove the retaining ring with small pliers, replace the gobo (diameter 26.8 mm, image 20 mm). Replace the ring ensuring it is locked in the groove. Reassemble the holder and tighten the screw.

Can I use a dimmer with this projector?

No, never connect the unit to a dimmer. This could damage the device and pose a fire risk.

What is the safety distance from illuminated objects?

The minimum distance between the projector and the illuminated surface must be at least 1 meter to avoid any risk of overheating.

What to do if the device does not turn on?

First check the fuse (250V 3.15A slow-blow). If the fuse is intact, check the bulb. If problem persists, contact a qualified technician.

How to clean the device?

Unplug and let it cool. Clean the optical lenses with a soft cloth and glass cleaner. Ventilation openings should be cleaned monthly. For interior, call a professional once a year.

LAMP (RE)PLACEMENT

In case of replacement of the lamp or maintenance, do not open the fixture within 10 minutes until the unit cools down after switching off. Always unplug the unit before servicing! Always use the same type of spare parts (bulbs, fuses, etc.) When replacing parts, please only genuine spare parts.

• Switch off the unit and unplug the mains cable.
• Wait for about 10 minutes until the unit has been cooled down.
• Unscrew the screw that closes the lamp compartment of the fixture.
• On the inside you will see the lamp socket. Tear the lamp socket gently out of the lamp compartment.
• Unplug the old lamp. Hold the lamp socket while unplugging the lamp instead of pulling the cable!
• Hold the lamp socket while pressing the new lamp gently in the socket. Attention! Check the label on the backside of the device or see the technical specifications in this manual to know which lamp should be used. Never install lamps with a higher wattage! Lamps with higher wattage generate temperatures the device was not designed for. If the device uses a lamp transformer, it will burn due to current overload.
• Don't touch the bulb inside the reflector of the lamp with bare hands! This drastically shortens the lifespan of the lamp. If you touched the lamp, clean it with a cloth and a little denatured alcohol. Wipe the lamp off before installing.
• Put the new lamp back inside the unit. Be sure that the wires don't touch the lamp.
• Close the lamp compartment with the screw.
• Done!

EXCHANGING A GOBO

The logo projector accepts metal gobos: D = 26,8 mm (image D = 20 mm )

• Switch off the main supply and unplug the unit.
• Wait for about 10 minutes until the unit has been cooled down.

Loosen the screw that closes the lamp compartment of the fixture

Remove the cover of the lamp compartment and gently loosen the screw that fixes the gobo holder

Remove the gobo holder

Remove the fixation ring of the gobo. You can do this easily with a small pincer. Take the gobo gently out of the holder.

Put the new gobo in place. Make sure you can read the text on the gobo when you look from the reverse side otherwise your text will be mirrored.

Put the fixation ring gently back in place using a small pincer.

Make sure that the end of the fixation ring locks in the groove of the gobo holder.

Put the gobo holder back in place and tighten the screw firmly to keep the gobo holder in place. Important: make sure the gear wheel is well fixed!

• Put the cover of the lamp compartment back in place and tighten the screw.
• Done!

OVERHEAD RIGGING

• Important: The installation must be carried out by qualified service personal only. Improper installation can result in serious injuries and/or damage to property. Overhead rigging requires extensive experience! Working load limits should be respected, certified installation materials should be used, the installed device should be inspected regularly for safety.
• Make sure the area below the installation place is free from unwanted persons during rigging, de-rigging and servicing.
• Locate the fixture in a well ventilated spot, far away from any flammable materials and/or liquids. The fixture must be fixed at least 50cm from surrounding walls.
• The device should be installed out of reach of people and outside areas where persons may walk by or be seated.

• Before rigging make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point load of 10 times the device's weight.

• Always use a certified safety cable that can hold 12 times the weight of the device when installing the unit. This secondary safety attachment should be installed in a way that no part of the installation can drop more than 20cm if the main attachment fails.

• The device should be well fixed; a free-swinging mounting is dangerous and may not be considered!
• Don't cover any ventilation openings as this may result in overheating.
• The operator has to make sure that the safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by an expert before using them for the first time. The installations should be inspected every year by a skilled person to be sure that safety is still optimal.
