GB12BW/BS/BP LIGHTING SYSTEM — RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION

■When transporting the tripod lighting system, always place tripod in the stow position, then place tripod into its carrying case.

■ALWAYS remove the balloon/lamp assembly from the mast when transporting any of the GloBug lighting systems. This will prevent damage to the bulb due to vibration.

■NEVER leave the balloon/lamp exposed during transport. Exposure to excess wind or rain could damage the balloon's nylon cover.

■ALWAYS place the balloon inside its protective cover during transport. Be sure the cover is secured tightly around the balloon/lamp assembly.

LAMP SAFETY AND CARE

■NEVER leave any grease or oil residue on lamp surface when replacing or removing lamp. This can create hot spots, reducing the service life of the lamp.

■ALWAYS make sure the lamp surface is clean and dry.

■ALWAYS replace with MQ recommended type lamp. See parts section of this manual.

■NEVER use force when installing the lamp. Excessive force could cause the lamp to break causing bodily harm.

■ALWAYS make sure the lamp guard is installed correctly. NEVER deform the lamp guard.

■NEVER attempt to replace lamp with the power on. Always unplug the power cord from the generator or power source when changing the lamp.

■NEVER unplug the lamp's AC power cable during operation.

■ALWAYS allow a sufficient amount of time for the lamp to cool before changing. The possibility exists of severe burns.

■ALWAYS have a trained technician to install and remove lamp, or replace any damaged fixture wiring.

BALLOON SAFETY AND CARE

■To prevent serious burns, NEVER touch or unzip the balloon envelope when the lamp is on.

■To prevent the balloon from deformation, NEVER use any GloBug lighting system in strong winds.

■DO NOT place the balloon inside its protective cover until the lamp has had a sufficient amount of time to cool down. This will prevent the balloon's nylon cover from being burned (touching the lamp surface).

■ALWAYS place the balloon inside its protective cover after each use. This will prolong the life of the balloon material, keeping it protected from harsh environmental elements.

■DO NOT use a damaged balloon. Replace balloon immediately if damaged. In addition, a damaged balloon will not inflate properly, and may become more damaged by touching the hot lamp surface.

■ALWAYS keep the balloon away from sharp objects and excessive amounts of heat (fire!).

■DO NOT use excessive force when zipping and unzipping the balloon. Be gentle with the zipper mechanism. If the zipper is broken the balloon will become unusable.

DANGER - Grounding

All GloBug lighting systems are equipped with a ground pin on the power plug. For your protection. ALWAYS complete the grounding path. NEVER insert the AC power plug

into a 2-prong receptacle to operate any GloBug lighting system.

When applying power to the lighting system, always connect the AC power plug to a 3-prong receptacle that is grounded.The possibility exists of Electrical Shock, Electrocution, and even Death if the lighting system is not grounded.
