Warning! To Ensure Proper Operation
ALWAYS TURN OFF THE BALLAST BEFORE connecting or
disconnecting lamps, harnesses or Head Extension Cables.
Ballast Operation
The Micro-Flo Ballast operates remote from the fixture. Connect the Mini-Flo
lamp harness to the Ballast. After the lamp is properly installed, the Ballast can
be turned on. Avoid operating in temperatures above 125
°F (51°C). A power
extension cable can be attached to the Ballast’s power cord. The lamp
harness cannot be extended.
In cold temperatures the Ballast may take longer to ignite the lamp. If it does
not ignite within 5 seconds, switch the ballast to OFF, and try again. If lamp
does not strike after 2 or 3 attempts, turn Ballast off, check that the lamp
harness or any extension connections are secure and restrike.
When using alligator clips correct polarity is
necessary in order to operate the ballast.
Red Clip is + ( Positive),
Black clip is – ( Negative)
