Rigging

Please follow the European and national guidelines concerning rigging, trussing and all

other safety issues.

Improper installation can cause serious injuries and/or damage of property!

The Festoonlight Q4 String can be installed in various ways, however always make sure that the bulbs

hang at 90° angle to the ground. This will prevent rain or moisture from collecting in the lamp holders.

Before installing the string, make sure that there is adequate distance between the string and the

controller. If necessary, use the extension cord supplied with the Festoonlight Q4 Controller. Do not use

more than 1 extension cord per controller.

Make sure that the structure onto which you are mounting the Festoonlight Q4 String(s) can support the

weight of the string(s).

If using a guide wire, attach the mounting eyelets on top of each bulb with the help of S-hooks, cable

ties, or similar adequate fasteners.

If not using a guide wire, connect each string securely to structure at least at 4 points (at both ends and

at 2 points in the middle).

Do not hang using screws, nails, staples, or any other sharp fasteners that may pierce, abrade, or

otherwise damage the cable.

Do not use the cable to mount the string!
