Fuse & Lamp Replacement

 

 

This fixture is fitted with halogen lamps which are highly susceptible to damage if improperly handled. Never touch the lamps with your bare fingers as the oil from your hands will shorten lamp life. Also, never move the fixture until the lamps have had ample time to cool. Remember, lamps are not cov- ered under warranty conditions.

Caution: Always replace with the exact same type lamp and fuse, unless otherwise specified by an authorized American DJ® technician. Replace with anything other than the specified part can damage your unit and will void your manufactures warranty.

Warning: If after you have replaced the lamp or fuse and you continue to blow either one, STOP using the unit. Contact customer support for further instructions, you may have to return the unit for servicing. Continuing to use the unit may cause serious damage.

Turn the screwdriver in counter-clockwise direction to unlock the fuse holder. Remove the fuse holder to expose the fuse. 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 it in clockwise direction to lock the holder back in to place.

Cleaning

 

 

Fixture Cleaning:

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

1.Use normal glass cleaner and a soft cloth to wipe down the outside casing every 20 days.

2.Use a small brush and normal glass cleaner with a soft cloth to wipe down the inside casing every 30-60 days.

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

4.Frequent cleaning will extend lamp life and ensure fixture reliability.

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.
