Fixture Cleaning:
Due to fog residue, smoke, and dust cleaning the fixture should be
carried out periodically to optimize light output.
1. Use normal glass cleaner and a soft cloth to wipe down the outside
casing every 20 days.
2. Use a small brush and normal glass cleaner with a soft cloth to
wipe down the inside casing every 30-60 days.
3. Always be sure to dry all parts completely before plugging the
unit back in.
4. Frequent cleaning will extend lamp life and ensure fixture reliability.
Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the fixture
operates (I.e. smoke, fog residue, dust, dew). In heavy use we recom-
mend cleaning on a monthly basis. Periodic cleaning will ensure
longevity, and crisp beam output.
