4.8 Rigging the fixture
A structure intended for installation of the fixture(s) must safely hold weight of the fixture(s) placed on it. The
structure has to be certificated to the purpose.
The fixture (fixtures) must be installed in accordance with national and local electrical and construction codes
and regulation.
For overhead installation, the fixture must be always secured with a safety wire that
can bear at least 10 times the weight of the fixture
When rigging, derigging or servicing the fixture staying in the area below the installation place, on bridges,
under high working places and other endangered areas is forbidden.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by an expert
before taking into operation for the first time and after changes before taking into operation another time.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by a skilled
person once a year.
Allow the fixture to cool for ten minutes before handling.
The projector should be installed outside areas where persons may walk by or be seated.
IMPORTANT! OVERHEAD RIGGING REQUIRES EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE, including calculating working
load limits, installation material being used, and periodic safety inspection of all installation material and the
projector. If you lack these qualifications, do not attempt the installation yourself, but use a help of professional
companies.
CAUTION: Fixtures may cause severe injuries when crashing down! If you have doubts concerning the safety
of a possible installation, do not install the fixture!
The fixture has to be installed out of the reach of public.
The fixture must never be fixed swinging freely in the room.
Danger of fire !
When installing the device, make sure there is no highly inflammable
material (decoration articles, etc.) in a distance of min. 1 m.
The minimum distance of 8 meters between light output from the moving head and the
lit objects
must be kept!
CAUTION!
Use 2 appropriate clamps to rig the fixture on the truss.
Follow the instructions mentioned at the bottom of the base.
Make sure that the device is fixed properly! Ensure that the
structure (truss) to which you are attaching the fixtures is secure.
The fixture can be placed directly on the stage floor or rigged in any orientation on a truss without altering its
operation characteristics .
For securing a fixture to the truss, install two safety wires which can hold at least 10 times the weight of the
fixture. Use only the safety wires with screw-on carabines.
