GLOBUG LIGHTING SYSTEM — PRE-SETUP/OPERATION

DANGER - HIGH VOLTAGE POWER LINES

When raising mast, ALWAYS be on the lookout for overhead obstructions such as high voltage power lines.The possibility exists of electrocution, even death! if the GloBug comes in contact with high voltage power lines.

Applying Power

1.Make sure the power ON/OFF switch (Figure 14) located near the bottom of the mast is in the OFF position.

Figure 14. Power OFF/ON Switch (OFF Position)

CAUTION - READ GENERATOR MANUAL

Before attempting to operate the generator, READ the entire operation section of the manual. Failure to read manual could cause severe damage to the equipment and bodily harm to the operator.

2.The GloBug has a power requirement of 120 VAC, 60 Hz @ 9.5 amps. Connect the GloBug's AC power cord to the 120 VAC twist-lock receptacle (Figure 15) on the the supplied generator.

3.Start the generator as referenced in the "Start-up Section" of the supplied generator manual.

4.Notice that the balloon envelope will begin to deploy as soon as power is applied by an active generator. This function is not controlled by the power ON/OFF switch.

5.Wait until the balloon is fully deployed before attempting to turn on the lamp. The possibility exists of the balloon getting burned (touching the lamp).

6.If the balloon is fully deployed, place the GloBug's ON/ OFF switch in the ON position.
