Important Safeguards
When using this flash equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed, included the following:
1. Read and understand ALL instructions and specifications before using your Dyna-Lite equipment.
2. Care must be taken when handling the flash heads as injury could occur from touching the modeling
lamp(s) or flash tube(s).
3. DO NOT operate a power pack or flash head with a damaged cord or if the unit has been dropped.
4. If an extension power cord is necessary, a cord with a suitable current rating should be used. Cords
rated for less than 15 amps may overheat. Care should be taken to arrange the cord so that it will not be
tripped over or pulled from the electric source outlet.
5. Unplug the power pack from the electrical outlet when not in use. NEVER yank the cord to pull the plug
from the outlet.
6. Let flash heads cool completely before putting them away. Loop flash cables in an 8” to 10” diameter
when storing.
7. DO NOT allow power cord(s) or flash head cable(s) to hang on or touch hot surfaces.
8. To avoid electrical shock hazard, DO NOT attempt to disassemble the power pack. Incorrect reassembly
could cause an electrical shock hazard when a power pack is subsequently used. Take it to a qualified
Dyna-Lite service technician when repair is required.
9. When the power pack is not in use for one month or more, it is wise to periodically plug the power pack
in and turn it ON for a couple of hours. It is not necessary to operate a flash head during this “idling”
time.
10. Use the flash head extension cable locking rings with the flash head pigtail not at power pack.
11. The use of properly GROUNDED AC outlet is recommended.
12. Remove plastic or metal flash head cover before shooting.
13. Please set the sync mode switch to the “SYNC” position before turning the power and model lamp
switches “ON” and “OFF”. This procedure will ensure the longevity of the power and modeling lamp
switches.
