Procedure

The Q-Spot™ 160-LED features a gobo wheel that holds seven interchangeable, slot-n- lock gobos. These gobos can rotate at various speeds and in both directions.

Follow the procedure below to change any of the gobos on the gobo wheel

Always disconnect the fixture from the AC power before opening it.

1)Remove the gobo cover.

2)Remove the slot-n-lock gobo from the gobo wheel.

3)Using a small tool, pry the tension ring from the gobo holder.

4)Remove the old gobo.

5)Insert the new gobo, and replace in the reverse steps of removal.

If using coated glass gobos, make sure that the more reflective side of the gobo (glass base) faces the light source. This way, the glass base of the gobo will provide extra isolation to its coating from the heat of the light source, thus minimizing the risk of damaging the gobo’s coating.
