GLOBUG LIGHTING SYSTEM — COMPONENTS
Figure 6 shows the location of the controls and components for the GloBug Lighting System.The functions of each control is described below:
1.Steering Handle – The GloBug can be moved in either a forward or reverse direction by pulling back or pushing forward on the
2.Mast Winch – Use this mechanical winch to raise and lower the mast. Always be on the lookout for overhead obstructions. Keep immediate area free of bystanders and debris when raising the mast.
3.Lamp Power Cable (Generator) – Connect this quick- disconnect cable plug
4.Mast – This mast is comprised of four separate stages. The mast can be raised in excess of 16.5 ft. (5 meters). Again when raising the mast, always be on the lookout for overhead obstructions.
5.Lift Hanger – When lifting of the GloBug is required always use a suitable lifting device of adequate lifting capability. NEVER stand underneath the GloBug while it is being lifted.
6.Generator – MQ
7.Tires – The GloBug uses 4 pneumatic type tires. Replace with only recommended type tire . NEVERallow the rear tires to go flat. This could adversely affect the braking system. Inflate tires to 35.5 psi (245kPa).
8.Locking Clamps – To secure the generator to the GloBug cart platform, place clamps (4) around the pipe frame of the generator. Tighten securely to prevent movement.
9.Brake Pad – When the brake pedal is pressed, this pad will strike and hold the rear tires in place. Make sure rear tires are inflated to the correct air pressure.
10.Outriggers – ALWAYS deploy the outriggers when raising the mast.
11.Brake Pedal – Step on this pedal to apply the brakes.To release the brakes, press down on brake pedal again.
12.ON/OFF Switch – Place this switch in the ON position to turn on the lamp.To turn off the lamp place in the down position (OFF). Please wait for approximately 10 minutes before attempting to turn the lamp back on.
13.Power Cable – Connect this cable to a 120 VAC, 60 Hz power source.
14.Balloon Storage Bag – Store the balloon in this storage bag when the GloBug is not in use. Allow a sufficient amount of time for the lamp to cool down before placing balloon inside storage bag. Possibility exists of balloon getting burned.
15.Balloon – This balloon is made of heat resistant nylon, with a diameter of 3.9 ft.(1,150 mm).The balloon shall be inflated to a pressure of 31.26 psi (215.6 kPA).
16.Lamp Power Cable (Balloon) – Connect this quick- disconnect cable plug
17.Fan Motor (Blower) – This electric motor is responsible for inflating the balloon. It will supply a pressure of 31.26 psi (215.6 kPA).Please note that the balloon will begin to inflate as soon as power is applied to the GloBug. The OFF/ON switch does not control the electric fan motor.
18.Lamp Guard – This guard (cage) protects the lamp from being hit by objects.
19.Lamp – 1000 watt
20.Lamp Holder – Screw lamp into this holder. If lamp becomes difficult to screw into holder or holder is damaged, replace holder.
21.Balloon Alarm Buzzer – Will sound during normal operation if the balloon attempts to make contact with the lamp's hot! surface. If this condition occurs, immediately place the GloBug's ON/OFF switch in the OFF position.
22.Adjust Lever – This lever allows the lamp to be posi- tioned up or down.Turn counterclockwise to release lamp and position. Turn clockwise to tighten.
23.Ballast Compartment – Provides the necessary elec- tronics to light the lamp. To gain access to the ballast compartment the generator must be removed from the cart platform.
