BRACKET

The projector should be mounted via its brackets using 2 M12 bolts. The brackets attach to the
underside of the projector with 4 M8x25 bolts provided. Always ensure that the projector is firmly
anchored to avoid vibration and slipping whilst functioning. Always ensure that the structure to which
you are attaching the projector is secure and is able to support a weight of 18Kg for each PILOT 300.
For safety the projector should have a secondary fixing with a safety chain through the holes on the
underside of the unit.

WARNING: The projector should NEVER be lifted or carried by the yoke.

LAMP TYPE: HTI 300W/DX

Loosen the 3 access screws at the rear of the projector and pull the lamp access hatch straight out
from the rear of the projector. Insert an HTI 300W/DX lamp in the lamp holder.
Close the lamp access hatch, then tighten the 3 access screws.

NOTE: When fitting the lamp position it with the little bubble vertically (either upwards or downwards)
as shown in the diagram above. Do not position it horizontally. Close the access hatch carefully and
re-tighten the 3 screws. To optimize light output it will be necessary to adjust the lamp alignment to
obtain an even distribution of light within the beam. The three screws (marked A, B, and C) may be
gently turned to center the lamp within the reflector. The projector should be switched on with the
shutter open and the beam focused to do this, it is also advisable to allow the lamp 5 minutes to come
up to full brightness before starting to align it. Note: the three screws will only need a small adjustment
to centre the lamp, do not try to unscrew them completely. Read the rest of this manual and then come
back to this section to align the lamp.

The HTI series are high pressure lamps with external igniters (

). Care should always be taken when

handling these lamps. Always read the manufacturers "Instructions for use" enclosed with the lamp.
