MAINTENANCE GUIDELINES

DISCONNECT POWER BEFORE PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE!

CLEANING
Frequent cleaning is recommended to ensure proper function, optimized light output, and an extended life. The frequency of cleaning depends on the environment which the device operates in: damp, smoky or particularly dirty environments can cause greater accumulation of dirt on the fixture housing and/or light fixture optics. Clean the external surface and the front lens of the light at least every 20 days with a soft cloth to avoid dirt/debris accumulation
NEVER use alcohol, solvents, or ammonia-based cleaners.

MAINTENANCE
Regular inspections are recommended to ensure proper function and extended life. There are no user serviceable parts inside these devices, please refer all other service issues to Eliminator Lighting. Should you need any spare parts, please order genuine parts from Eliminator Lighting.

Please refer to the following points during routine inspections:

  • A detailed review by an approved electrical engineer every three months, to make sure the circuit contacts are in good condition and prevent overheating.
  • Be sure all screws and fasteners are securely tightened at all times. Loose screws may fall out during normal operation resulting in damage or injury as larger parts could fall.
  • Check for any deformations on the light housing, lens, rigging hardware and rigging points (ceiling, suspension, trussing. etc.). Deformations could allow for dust to enter into the devices. Damaged rigging points or unsecured rigging could cause the devices to fall and seriously injure a person(s).
  • Electric power supply cables must not show any damage, material fatigue or sediments.
