his device falls under protection-class I. The power plug must only be plugged into a protection class I outlet. The voltage and frequency must exactly be the same as stated on the device. Wrong voltages or power outlets can lead to the destruction of the device and to mortal electrical shock. Always plug in the power plug last. The power plug must always be inserted without force. Make sure that the plug is tightly connected with the outlet. Never let the power-cord come into contact with other cables! Handle the power-cord and all connections with the mains with particular caution! Never touch them with wet hands, as this could lead to mortal electrical shock. Never modify, bend, strain mechanically, put pressure on, pull or heat up the power cord. Never operate next to sources of heat or cold. Disregard can lead to power cord damages, fire or mortal electrical shock. The cable insert or the female part in the device must never be strained. There must always be sufficient cable to the device. Otherwise, the cable may be damaged which may lead to mortal damage. Make sure that the power-cord is never crimped or damaged by sharp edges. Check the device and the power-cord from time to time. If extension cords are used, make sure that the core diameter is sufficient for the required power consumption of the device. All warnings concerning the power cords are also valid for possible extension cords. Always disconnect from the mains, when the device is not in use or before cleaning it. Only handle the power-cord by the plug. Never pull out the plug by tugging the power-cord. Otherwise, the cable or plug can be damaged leading to mortal electrical shock. If the power plug or the power switch is not accessible, the device must be disconnected via the mains. If the power plug or the device is dusty, the device must be taken out of operation, disconnected and then be cleaned with a dry cloth. Dust can reduce the insulation which may lead to mortal electrical shock. More severe dirt in and at the device should only be removed by a specialist. There must never enter any liquid into power outlets, extension cords or any holes in the housing of the device. If you suppose that also a minimal amount of liquid may have entered the device, it must immediately be disconnected. This is also valid, if the device was exposed to high humidity. Also if the device is still running, the device must be checked by a specialist if the liquid has reduced any insulation. Reduced insulation can cause mortal electrical shock. There must never be any objects entering into the device. This is especially valid for metal parts. If any metal parts like staples or coarse metal chips enter into the device, the device must be taken out of operation and disconnected immediately. Malfunction or short-circuits caused by metal parts may cause mortal injuries. During the initial start-up some smoke or smell may arise. This is a normal process and does not necessarily mean that the device is defective. Caution: During the operation, the housing becomes very hot. Do not switch the device on and off in short intervals as this would reduce the lamp’s life. HEALTHHAZARD!

The installation must only be carried out by an authorized dealer! The installation of the projector has to be built and constructed in a way that it can hold 10 times the weight for 1 hour without any harming deformation. The installation must always be secured with a secondary safety attachment, e.g. an appropriate catch net. This secondary safety attachment must be constructed in a way that no part of the installation can fall down if the main attachment fails. When rigging, derigging or servicing the fixture staying in the area below the installation place, on bridges, under high working places and other endangered areas is forbidden. The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by an expert before taking into operation for the first time and after changes before taking into operation another time. The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by an expert after every four year in the course of an acceptance test. The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by a skilled person once a year. Procedure: The projector should be installed outside areas where persons may walk by or be seated. IMPORTANT! OVERHEAD RIGGING REQUIRES EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE, including (but not limited to) calculating working load limits, installation material being used, and periodic safety inspection of all installation material and the projector. If you lack these qualifications, do not attempt the installation yourself, but instead use a professional structural rigger. Improper installation can result in bodily injury and.or damage to property. The projector has to be installed out of the reach of people. If the projector shall be lowered from the ceiling or high joists, professional trussing systems have to be used. The projector must never be fixed swinging freely in the room.00042936.DOC, Version 2.1 18/37 Caution: Projectors may cause severe injuries when crashing down! If you have doubts concerning the

afety of a possible installation, do NOT install the projector! Before rigging make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point load of 10 times the projector's weight. DANGEROFFIRE! Wheninstallingthedevice,makesurethereisnohighly-inflammable material(decorationarticles,etc.)withinadistanceofmin.0.5m. Mount the projector with the mounting-bracket to your trussing system using an appropriate clamp. For overhead use, always install an appropriate safety bond. You must only use safety bonds complying with DIN 56927, quick links complying with DIN 56926, shackles complying with DIN EN 1677-1 and BGV C1 carbines. The safety bonds, quick links, shackles and the carbines must be sufficiently dimensioned and used correctly in accordance with the latest industrial safety regulations (e. g. BGV C1, BGI 810-3). Please note: for overhead rigging in public or industrial areas, a series of safety instructions have to be followed that this manual can only give in part. The operator must therefore inform himself on the current safety instructions and consider them. The manufacturer cannot be made liable for damages caused by incorrect installations or insufficient safety precautions! Pull the safety bond through the hole in the mounting-bracket and over the trussing system or a safe fixation spot. Insert the end in the quick link and tighten the safety screw. The maximum drop distance must never exceed 20 cm. A safety bond which already held the strain of a crash or which is defective must not be used again. The spot may only be operated when in accordance with the allowable position for use. Please ensure, that the angle of inclination is set within the following parameters: Adjust the desired inclination-angle via the mounting-bracket and tighten the fixation screws. DANGERTOLIFE!
