INSTRUCTIONS FOR SETTING UP LUMINATOR FOLLOW SPOTLIGHT Packaged in 2 boxes; one contains follow spot head with yoke attached, second box; standpipe, base and three casters with fasteners. Assembling the Follow Spotlight
With the fins on base legs facing upward, install casters onto base. Screw pre-assembled threaded standpipe into hole at center of base. Remove ½ inch bolt from telescoping pole and insert through hole in bottom of yoke. Reinsert bolt into pole and tighten. When the head is attached to the pole the color boom shall be on the right. “T” handles on each side of spot tightens head to the yoke. Some prefer handles kept loosened for easier movement, adjust to your preference. Your follow spot is assembled and ready for use. There are two focus knobs, one on the underside for major focus adjustments; the other located top rear for fine-tuning. When first igniting the lamp you may see smoke. This is normal during burn-in. It will disappear after a few hours usage. If controls appear stiff, they will correct with use. The iris leaves, constructed of stainless steel, must be tempered. Igniting the lamp, closing the iris and letting it burn-in for 2 minutes will accomplish this. Reopen iris fully to allow for cool down. Repeat this procedure until iris stops smoking and leaves have turned a bluish/black color. Do not “burn-in” iris for more than 2 minutes each time, you could cause severe damage to iris leaves. Tempering should be completed after a few burn-ins. Lamping: Your follow spot is supplied with a factory installed lamp. When replacement is necessary, use a cloth towel to install new lamp. Apply slight pressure to slide lamp into position. Be sure to wipe lamp clean of any fingerprints, oil or dirt. A dirty lamp will blister and burn out prematurely. The lamp to use is the 360W FLE…..Always keep a spare lamp with follow spot. This follow spot draws 4 amps. If an extension cord is needed, the standard household variety is acceptable. If you have any questions, the Altman dealer from whom you purchased this follow spot will assist you. Be sure to ask him for an Altman follow spot brochure to learn about other models available. The parts/diagram list provided is also used for manufacturing purposes. Some illustrations shown are complete assemblies, which cannot be sold as individual parts.
