General Guidelines

• This device is designed for professional use on stage, in discos, theatres, etc. The VDLPS36B / VDLPS36C should only be used indoors with an alternating current of max. 230VAC / 50Hz.
• Lighting effects are not designed for permanent operation: regular operation breaks will prolong their lives.

• Select a location where the device is protected against extreme heat (see “Technical Specifications”), dust and moisture. Respect a minimum distance of 0.5m between the device’s light output and any illuminated surface.
• Use an appropriate safety cable to fix the device (e.g. VDLSC7 or VDLSC8).
• Familiarise yourself with the functions of the device before actually using it. Do not allow operation by unqualified people. Any damage that may occur will most probably be due to the unprofessional use of the device.
• Use the original packaging if the device is to be transported.
• All modifications of the device are forbidden for safety reasons.
• Only use the device for its intended purpose. All other uses may lead to short circuits, burns, electroshocks, crashes, etc. Using the device in an unauthorised way will void the warranty.

Installation

Lamps

• Only fit or replace a lamp when the device is unplugged from the mains.
• Let a lamp cool down before replacing it as the temperature of a lamp can reach 700°C during operation.
• When handling a halogen lamp, do not touch it with your bare hands. Use a cloth to insert or remove it.
• Do not install lamps with a higher wattage. They get hotter than this device was designed for.
• Replace any deformed or damaged lamp with a lamp of the same type (see “Technical Specifications”):
  1. Pull the extension spring and open the housing.
  2. When replacing a lamp, unplug the lamp socket and remove the old lamp.
  3. Insert the lamp in the housing.
  4. Fix the socket and close the device.

Remark: Do not operate the device when the cover is open.

Mounting the Device

• Have the device installed by a qualified person, respecting EN 60598-2-17 and all other applicable norms.
• The construction to which the device is attached should be able to support 10 times the weight of the device for one hour without deformation.
• The installation must always be secured with a secondary attachment e.g. a safety cable (e.g. VDLSC7 or VDLSC8).
• Never stand directly below the device when it is being mounted, removed, or serviced. Have a qualified technician check the device once a year and once before you bring it into service.
