5 Maintenance and cleaning

Danger to life !

Disconnect from mains before starting maintenance operation !

It is absolutely essential that the projector is kept clean and that dust, dirt and smoke fluid residues must not build

up on or within the projector. If this happens, the light output from the projector will be significantly reduced.

Regular cleaning will not only ensure the maximum light output, but will also allow the projector to function reliably

throughout its life. A soft lint-free cloth moistened with any good glass cleaning fluid is recommended, under no

circumstances should alcohol or solvents be used!

The front mirror and objective lens will require monthly cleaning as smoke fluid tends to building up residues,

reducing the light output very quickly. The cooling fan should also be cleaned monthly.

The gobos may be cleaned with a soft brush.

The dichroic colour filters, the gobo-wheel and the internal lenses should be cleaned every three months.

The interior of the projector should be cleaned at least annually using a vacuum cleaner or air jet.

To ensure a proper function of the rotating gobos, we recommend lubrication in six month intervals. The

quantity of oil must not be excessive in order to avoid that oil run out when the gobo wheel rotates.
