3. General Guidelines.
UFO 8 is a lighting fixture for professional use on stages, in clubs, etc.
UFO 8 should only be operated at between 120 to 240 volts and only indoors.
UFO 8 should not be operated 24/7 (24 hours a day; 7 days a week). UFO 8 needs operation breaks to
ensure that it will work for a long time without problems. Please do not shake UFO 8 and avoid using
brute force when installing or operating it.
When choosing the location to install UFO 8, please make sure that it is not exposed to extreme heat,
moisture or dust. The minimum distance between UFO 8 and the illuminated surface must be more
than 3 feet.
Always mount UFO 8 with an appropriate safety cable.
Operate UFO 8 only when you are familiar with the features on the fixture. Do not permit operation by
persons not qualified for operating it.
All modifications to UFO 8 will invalidate the warranty. There are absolutely no exceptions.
If UFO 8 is operated in any way different to the one described in this manual, UFO 8 maybe damaged
and the guarantee will be void.
4. Installation
Please ensure that the UFO 8 is hung using the appropriate "C" clamp or half cheeseboro attached to
the U bracket supplied with the fixture. A safety chain or cable should also be used as a secondary
point of holding the fixture in case the clamp comes loose. Never hang the fixture without a safety
chain or cable.
If you are not qualified or have any doubts about hanging the UFO 8 then do NOT hang it.
Do not clamp the cable to the U bracket or clamp. That is not a secondary safety point.
A secondary safety point is any point that will adequately hold the UFO 8 if the "C" clamp or half
cheesboro fails. Then the safety cable would be the backup and stop the fixture from falling to the
ground. So do NOT fix the safety to the same place that the "C"clamp is attached.
