OPERATION
After you connected the effect to the mains, the VFL-1200 Follow Spot starts running.
With the POWER-switch located on the rear panel of the device you can switch the device on and off. The
BLACKOUT-screw activates or deactivates the blackout.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are inspected by an
expert after every four years in the course of an acceptance test.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are inspected by a
skilled person once a year.
The following points have to be considered during the inspection:
1) All screws used for installing the devices or parts of the device have to be tighly connected and must not
be corroded.
2) There must not be any deformations on housings, fixations and installation spots (ceiling, suspension,
trussing).
3) The electric power supply cables must not show any damages, material fatigue (e.g. porous cables) or
sediments. Further instructions depending on the installation spot and usage have to be adhered by a
skilled installer and any safety problems have to be removed.
Disconnect from mains before starting maintenance operation!
DANGER TO LIFE!
We recommend a frequent cleaning of the device. Please use a moist, lint-free cloth. Never use alcohol or
solvents!
The lens has to be replaced when it is obviously damaged,
so that its function is impaired, e. g. due to cracks or deep scratches!
CAUTION!
The objective lens will require weekly cleaning as smoke-fluid tends to building up residues, reducing the
light-output very quickly. The cooling-fan should be cleaned monthly.
The interior of the device should be cleaned at least annually using a vacuum-cleaner or an air-jet.
There are no serviceable parts inside the device except for the lamp. Maintenance and service operations
are only to be carried out by authorized dealers.
Please refer to the instructions under "Installing/Replacing the lamps".
Should you need any spare parts, please use genuine parts.
If the power supply cable of this device becomes damaged, it has to be replaced by authorized dealers only
in order to avoid hazards.
Should you have further questions, please contact your dealer.
