2. Mounting the Rotalux Softbox on the Elinchrom flash-unit:

A) Turn the locking ring of the flash unit (mounted on the tripod), anti

clockwise to unlock the bayonet. Remove the protective cap from

the flash unit anti clockwise.

B) Ensure that the locking knob on the speed ring is tightened (see

2.C). Insert the Rotalux speed ring and turn clock wise. It clicks into

place. Turn the locking ring clockwise to lock the bayonet with the

Rotalux speed ring attached.

C) The angle of the Rotalux softbox can be adjusted with the revolving

system. Unlock the locking knob of the speed ring and turn the

softbox into the desired position. Make sure that the speed ring is

locked in the bayonet of the flash unit whilst turning the softbox.

NOTE: The speed ring and the locking knob may become

hot when the Rotalux is in use. Protect your hands with heat

resistant gloves and switch off the unit and disconnect it from

the mains, when you need to adjust the softbox angle.

D) Attach the diffusing cloths of the softbox.
E) Fix the cloths with the Velcro-fastening tapes along the softbox sides

and edges.
