First Time Use:
When using your fixture for the first time, there is a “burn in” period. Light smoke caused by the evaporation of
assembly lubricants will be produced. This is a temporary effect that will cease when the lubricant has fully evaporated.
Mounting your luminaire:
A Safety Chain MUST always be used when rigging luminaires on bars, ladders etc.
The
Acclaim Zoomspot
will be supplied with a safety bond accessory fitted. The safety bond is passed through
the luminaire lamp-house anchor hole located at the rear of the luminaire and around the bar. This is the only
recommended safety bond anchor point for this luminaire.
Please be careful to allow sufficient slack to allow the luminaire to be focused freely.
This luminaire uses a theatre lamp with a grid filament. To avoid premature lamp failure it
is essential that the luminaire is always mounted so the yoke is horizontal and with the
lamp base down, i.e. the lamp adjustment knob is at the bottom of the rear lamp plate.
Please note also that the maximum tilt angles of the luminaire are 90º either side of
horizontal.
Fitting a suspension clamp to theatre standard (48mm O.D.) pipe
Your luminaire is supplied with an M12 set screw, two washers and a nut.
Pass the set screw through the yoke hole from the inside, put on a washer, then the hook
clamp, another washer and then tighten the nut.
If you are not using the set screw, washers and nut, please dispose of them responsibly.
To mount on a telescopic stand
Reverse the yoke under the luminaire and bolt the stand's spigot onto the set screw.
Yoke Pivot Adjustment
The yoke on the Acclaim range can be positioned anywhere in the channel that runs the length of the luminaire. This is
useful to achieve the best balance if using a colour changer or other accessory mounted on the front of the luminaire, or to
fit the luminaire in space restricted positions.
The yoke balance point is factory set on the lamp house for normal applications. To move the yoke, loosen the M8 bolt at
the bottom pivot point of the yoke on the right side of the luminaire. Release the tilt locking clamp on the left side of the
luminaire, and slide the yoke to the required position. Check the yoke is evenly positioned on each side and tighten the M8
bolt, and the tilt locking clamp. To return the yoke to its original balance point, align the yoke to the balance point marked
on the focus reference scale.
The luminaire should be at least 1.5m / 5ft away
from the object it is lighting.
The rear of the luminaire should be no closer
than 0.6m / 2 ft away from a surface.
