FLASHTUBE ASSEMBLY REPLACEMENT
|
| WARNING HIGH VOLTAGE | |||
| AFTER USE DO NOT TOUCH THE FLASHTUBE ASSEMBLY FOR THIRTY MINUTES DUE TO EXTREME HEAT | ||||
STEP 1.) | Ensure that the Ringflash Pro is switched off and disconnected from the mains supply and wait for thirty minutes to allow to cool | ||||
| down before touching / removing the flashtube. | ||||
STEP 2.) | Before removing the flashtube assembly from the Ringflash Pro first remove the front protective glass cover (before removing | ||||
| check the glass has cooled sufficiently to touch). Once the glass cover has been removed take out the two modelling lamps | ||||
| next to the trigger wire tab and then unwind the trigger wire from the tab as shown in fig. 7. It is recommended to remove the two | ||||
| modelling lamps next to the trigger wire tab to allow more room to when unwinding the trigger wire and so not to damage the | ||||
| lamps. | ||||
STEP 3.) | To remove the flashtube assembly hold gently on both sides and pull away evenly from the Ringflash Pro as shown in fig. 8. To | ||||
| replace the flashtube assembly, simply place all four support legs into the correct fittings and gently push back in ensuring all four | ||||
| legs are placed back in evenly and secured by fully inserting into the flashtube leg connections. | ||||
| N.B. Always replace with the correct flashtube assembly. | ||||

MODELLING LAMP REPLACEMENT
| WARNING HIGH VOLTAGE |
| AFTER USE DO NOT TOUCH THE MODELLING LAMPS FOR THIRTY MINUTES DUE TO EXTREME HEAT |
STEP 1.) | Ensure that the Ringflash Pro is switched off and disconnected from the mains supply and wait for thirty minutes to allow to cool |
| down before touching / removing the modelling lamps. |
STEP 2.) | Before removing any modelling lamps from the Ringflash Pro first remove the front protective glass (before removing check the |
| glass has cooled sufficiently to touch). To remove the modelling lamps grip gently between fingers (always ensure that you do not |
| touch the modelling bulbs directly with your fingers, use a cloth or a tissue (as shown in fig.9.), this is because the residue from |
| your fingers can shorten the life span of the bulb) and pull away slowly from the Ringflash Pro. To replace the modelling lamps |
| simply align the two legs of the lamp with the correct fittings and gently push in ensuring that the lamp legs are fully inserted. |
