Fuse Replacement: Disconnect the unit’s main power supply. Insert a standard flat head screw driver in to the fuse holder housing. Turn the screwdriver in counter-clockwise direction to remove the fuse holder. Remove the old fuse and discard it, replace the fuse with the same type. Insert the fuse holder back into it’s housing and turn in clockwise direction to lock the holder in place.

Lamp Replacement: Caution! Never open the unit when in use. Always disconnect the main power and allow the fixture ample time to cool before attempting to replace the lamp.

Cleaning

 

 

Fixture Cleaning:

Due to fog residue, smoke, and dust cleaning the internal and external lenses should be carried out periodically to optimize light output.

1.Use normal glass cleaner and a soft cloth to wipe down the outside casing.

2.Clean the external optics with glass cleaner and a soft

cloth every 20 days.

4.Clean the internal optics with glass cleaner and a soft cloth every 30-60 days.

5.Always be sure to dry all parts completely before plugging the unit back in.

Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the fixture operates (I.e. smoke, fog residue, dust, dew). In heavy use we recom- mend cleaning on a monthly basis. Periodic cleaning will ensure longevity, and crisp beam output.
