voltage. In an installation it is always best to check the voltage before connecting. And remember never try to
connect your Elektric Eye live.
Make sure that the power cable is not damaged and never break off the ground pin.
Always disconnect the power, when the device is not in use or before cleaning it. If you don’t then you are
wasting the lamp life. Merely closing the shutter just stops the light output, it does NOT TURN OFF THE LAMP.
Never try to disconnect your Elektric Eye by pulling out the plug by tugging the cord.
Never touch the Elektric Eye when powered up. The lamp produces a considerable amount of heat and as a
result the housing does get hot. You can be burnt if you touch it.
Never look directly into the lamp source. Sensitive person could suffer an epileptic shock.
Never open the Elektric Eye and look at the lamp when the lamp is still on or when it is turned off but still hot or
even warm. The Elektric Eye uses a discharge lamp, which is volatile. The lamp can explode at anytime. Use
extreme caution and do not expose yourself to it. When replacing the lamp do not touch any glass part of the
lamp. Only handle by the silver terminal ends. Do not over tighten when installing a new lamp. Hand tight is
more than enough. PLEASE make sure that power to the fixture is disconnected and allow the fixture to cool
down to room temperature before installing a new lamp.
Please keep out of reach of the general public, children and animals.
GENERAL GUIDELINES
The Elektric Eye is a lighting fixture for professional use on stages, in clubs, theatres, and so on.
This fixture should only be operated at the voltage, which is stated in the technical specifications in the last
page of this manual.
The Elektric Eye is designed for indoor use only.
The Elektric Eye is not designed for permanent operation. Consistent operation breaks may ensure that the
device will serve you for a long time without defects.
Do not shake the Elektric Eye.
Do not use physical force when installing or operating the Elektralite Eye.
While choosing the installation position, please make sure that the Elektralite Eye is not exposed to extreme
heat, moisture or dust.
The minimum distance from the Elektric Eye front lens to any illuminated surface must be more than 3 feet.
Please be careful what surface you shine the light onto; light also has heat and this can affect the illuminated
surface. Elektralite will not be responsible for fading, color distortion or heat distortion caused by the light
beam.
When you hang the Elektric Eye please use an appropriate safety cable. Please make sure that any hanging
equipment, like threaded rod or C clamp is appropriate for the job. Remember, with a moving yoke fixture, that
the momentum of moving this large mass will cause extra “stress” on any mounting materials.
Only operate the Elektric Eye after you know its functions. Do not permit operation by persons not qualified.
Please use the original packaging if the device is to be transported. [Beware the majority of shipping
companies will not accept any liability for damage if the fixture is not shipped in the manufacturer’s original box
and insert packaging material].
If this fixture is operated in any other way different to that described in this manual, the fixture could be
damaged and any warranty would be void.
