Installation

Remove all packing materials from the Stage Blinder 4. Check that all foam and plastic padding is

removed. Connect all cables.

Do not supply power before the whole system is set up and connected properly.

Always disconnect from electric mains power supply before cleaning or servicing.

Damages caused by non-observance are not subject to warranty.

Installing the Lamp

The Showtec Phantom uses the GE Par 36 G53 Screw MFL 120V 650W (ordercode 80117) bulb as

manufactured by all popular manufacturers. Use only the appropriate lamp for your unit.

Note that, product versions that use other lamps, may be offered in the future. Check your product

specification label for information.

Always disconnect from electric mains power supply before changing lamps.

The lamp has to be replaced when it is damaged or deformed due to the heat.

Do not install lamps with a higher wattage! Lamps with a higher wattage generate temperatures the

device was not designed for.

Damages caused by non-observance are not subject to warranty.

Procedure

1. Loosen the 2 screws on the front of the lamp housing.

2. Gently remove the metal lamp housing.

3. Read lamp instructions. Do not touch the lamp bulb glass. Gently remove the lamp from its socket.

4. Unscrew the 2 wires on the backside of the lamp and remove the lamp. Oil on hands shortens the

lamp life. (If you touch the bulb glass, wipe off the glass with a clean, lint-free towel and rubbing

alcohol.).

5. Take the new lamp out of the carton box.

6. Take the 2 cables and tighten the screws on the back of the lamp. Place the lamp in the socket.

7. Put the metal lamp housing back and fasten the 2 screws snugly.
