JB SYSTEMS® 1/32 KALEIDO JB SYSTEMS® 2/32 KALEIDO ENGLISH OPERATION MANUAL ENGLISH OPERATION MANUAL DESCRIPTION: OVERHEAD RIGGING Best installation distance: A projection distance of +/- 5 meters from the wall is perfect. From this distance the projection will cover an area of 3.7 m x 3.7 m. Important: The installation must be carried out by qualified service personal only. Improper installation can result in serious injuries and/or damage to property. Overhead rigging requires extensive experience! Working load limits should be respected, certified installation materials should be used, the installed device should be inspected regularly for safety. Make sure the area below the installation place is free from unwanted persons during rigging, de-rigging and servicing. Locate the fixture in a well ventilated spot, far away from any flammable materials and/or liquids. The fixture must be fixed at least 50cm from surrounding walls. The device should be installed out of reach of people and outside areas where persons may walk by or be seated. Before rigging make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point load of 10times the device's weight. Always use a certified safety cable that can hold 12times the weight of the device when installing the unit. This secondary safety attachment should be installed in a way that no part of the installation can drop more than 20cm if the main attachment fails. The device should be well fixed; a free-swinging mounting is dangerous and may not be considered! Don't cover any ventilation openings as this may result in overheating. The operator has to make sure that the safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by an expert before using them for the first time. The installations should be inspected every year by a skilled person to be sure that safety is still optimal. 1. Optical lens with manual focus adjustment 2.

Hold the lamp socket while pressing the new lamp gently in the socket. Attention! Check the label on the backside of the device or see the technical specifications in this manual to know which lamp should be used. Never install lamps with a higher wattage! Lamps with higher wattage generate temperatures the device was not designed for. If the device uses a lamp transformer, it will burn due to current overload. Don't touch the bulb inside the reflector of the lamp with bare hands! This drastically shortens the lifespan of the lamp. If you touched the lamp, clean it with a cloth and a little denatured alcohol. Wipe the lamp off before installing. Put the new lamp back inside the unit. Be sure that the wires don't touch the lamp. Close the lamp compartment. Done! OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Once connected to the mains the device starts running.
