Tiffen Lowel Scandles - Manual (Page 3)

Lamp Switches
There are 4 lamp switches A,
each controlling a pair of lamps.
By turning one or more pairs of lamps
off, you can vary the output of the light.
Remember that there is also a master
power switch in the supplied
AC Cable.
Fuse Replacement
To open the fuse cover B, first make
sure that power has been disconnected
to the fixture. Use a small flathead
screwdriver to remove and replace fuse
if needed.
Rear Panel
n Loosen the side yoke locking
handle so that the yoke can be easily
positioned out of the way for the
following procedure.
n Place the fixture on its 4
small support feet so that the sockets
face up, making sure that the AC Cable
is not connected.
n Gently snap the 8 fluorescent
lamps into the cluster of sockets on
the front of the fixture. Start with the
center lamps.
Note: The procedure is the same
whether installing 12" or 8" lamps.
n Position the Polycarbonite
Lamp Shield over the installed lamps
so that the holes in the metal plate end
of the shield line up with the ends of
the lamps.
n Gently slide the shield down
over the lamps until it completely
covers the lamps. Carefully tighten the
2 nylon Locking Nuts A on the front of
the shield. This tightens the threaded
ends of the shafts at the fixture body
to securely hold the shield and lamps
in place.
n The AC power cord attaches to the
socket on the rear panel and contains a
master power switch.
