VDL300MF2 2 VELLEMAN
• 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 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, lamp
explosion, crash, etc. Using the device in an unauthorised way will void the warranty.
4. Installation
a) 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. Unscrew the screws on the front of the device and gently swivel the upper plate towards the back.
2. Remove the old lamp and insert the new one.
3. Carefully reposition the lid and fasten the screws.
Remark: Do not operate the device when the cover is open.
b) Fuse
• Only fit or replace a fuse when the device is unplugged from the mains.
• If the lamp burns out, chances are you will need to replace the fuse as well.
• Replace a blown fuse with a fuse of the same type and rating (see “Technical Specifications”):
1. Unscrew the fuse holder at the back with an appropriate screwdriver.
2. Remove the old fuse and install a new one.
3. Replace the fuse holder and fasten it with the screwdriver.
c) 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.
• 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.
• Install the device in a location with few passers-by that is inaccessible to unauthorised persons.
• Overhead mounting requires extensive experience: calculating work load limits, determining the installation
material to be used… Have the material and the device itself checked regularly. Do not attempt to install the
device yourself if you lack these qualifications as improper installation may result in injuries.
