PROJECTOR POSITIONING 4
• Light beam centring
After carrying out the operations
described, loosen the knobs (7), pro-
ceed by moving the projector on the
bracket (6) to position the beam of
light on the central point of the scene,
then lock the knobs (7).
On turning the TEST microswitch (15) onto the ON position, the projector runs a self-
check routine, during which the effects are mechanically reset, with the projector on.
At the end of the operation, or whenever you want to interrupt this procedure, turn the
TEST microswitch back onto OFF.
Whereas, on setting all the channels on level 0 (blackout), after an interval of 2 sec-
onds, the effects are re-calibrated, thanks to which it is possible, from the control unit,
to take back onto the correct position any motorized effects that during operation had
accidentally "lost step".
The entire re-calibration cycle lasts approximately 35 seconds and can be stopped at
any time by simply setting a channel at a level above 0.
Before proceeding, set the channels as shown in the following table.
CHANNEL CURSOR POSITION
1 COLOUR DISC 0 % (white spot)
2 GOBO ROTATION -
3 GOBO SELECTION -
4 DIMMER / STOP / STROBE 100 % (white spot)
5 PAN 50 % (central position)
6 TILT 50 % (central position)
7 EFFECTS DISC 0 % (white spot)
• Adjusting the lens
Move the lens (16) axially to obtain
perfect focusing of the projected
image, then lock the handwheel (17).
• Adjusting the lens hood
Loosen the two handwheels (18),
move the lens hood (19) in the direc-
tions shown by the arrows and lock it
in the desired position by tightening
the two handwheels (18).
Check the positioning of the lens
hood by taking the TILT to 100% (with
microswitch 12 in the OFF position)
and moving the PAN from 0% to
100%.

MAINTENANCE 5
• Opening and closing the projector
Loosen the handwheel (20) and slight-
ly lift the top cover (21), then forcing it
sideways in the direction shown by the
arrow free the cover from the body of
the projector.
After maintenance, fit the top cover
(21) back on, repeating the previous
sequence in reverse order.

• Re-lamping
After opening the projector, loosen the
two side ring nuts (22) of the lamp to
replace and remove it from the mount-
ings (23).
Take the new lamp out of its package,
loosen the two side ring nuts (22) and
insert it in the mountings (23). Finally,
screw on the ring nuts. 22

IMPORTANT: To distribute the beam of light uniformly, the lamp needs to be posi-
tioned with the protrusion (24), visible on the bulb, outside the optical axis of the pro-
jector. For this purpose it is recommended to turn the protrusion towards towards the
top cover of the projector
• Removing the lens hood plate
Before carrying out the routine main-
tenance operations on the effects unit,
described below, it is necessary to
remove the lens hood plate (28) by
unscrewing the two handwheels (29),
take care not to drop them inside the
projector.
After the necessary maintenance, fit
the lens hood plate (28) back on,
securing it with the two handwheels
(29).

• Replacing fuses
To replace the fuses, press the tab
(25) and take out the fuse-holder box
(26). Replace blown fuses with new
ones of the type specified on the label
(27) on the fuse-holder box (26). Put it
back in so the tab (25) clicks home.
