Tiffen Lowel Scandles - Manual (Page 4)

Mounting
on stand
n Holding the fixture
with lamps & shield
installed, carefully position the
stand fitting end of the yoke arm
on the 5/8" stud of the stand.
n Tighten the locking arm to
prevent the light from falling
forward. Make sure to align one
of the stand legs directly underneath
the lamps for best stability. Add
weights to the stand base for safety if
needed.
n Recommended Lowel Stands:
KS or larger for best stability,
however Uni Sr., and KS Jr. can
be used for more portability.
Mounting on boom
n Rotate the yoke counter-clockwise
to position it for attachment to a 5/8"
stud on the end of a boom using either
of the stand fitting holes. Experiment to
find the position that best suits your
purpose.

Attaching
Accessories
The LowelScandles light has a number
of front attachment accessories which
can be used to help vary the output
and quality of the light. They attach to
the installed Universal Rotating Speed
Ring, either by using the 4 retaining
screws on the front of the ring, or the 6
softbox mounting holes on the side of
the ring. In addition, there are 2 screw
threaded holes on the side of the ring
(1/4-20, and 3/8 -16) for additional
options).

Mounting Yoke
The yoke of the LowelScandles
light is designed to allow maxi-
mum versatility when mounting
the fixture.
n The yoke can rotate approximately
300 degrees, and has 2 additional 5/8"
stud mounting holes, allowing it to
attach from different angles.
n The yoke arm also has a hole for
attaching safety cables which must be
used whenever hanging the fixture
from boom or rail.
n The locking handle can be loos-
ened to allow the fixture to slide back
& forth. This is useful to reposition the
light’s center of gravity, making it more
stable on the stand, especially when
attaching front accessories which can
cause the balance to shift.
n Whenever mounting fixture over-
head, always attach safety cables
between the fixture and the rail using
the hole in the yoke.
