Starting up

Safety hints for operation with compact flash units
To avoid damage to the flash tube, mount reflectors and
lightformers (softboxes etc.) before use and turning on the
unit. Do not move compact flashes around while they are
operating. Turn the appliance off for each change of
reflectors or to move the unit to another location.
Caution:
Reflectors, speedrings and other accessories heat up
during longer operation. To avoid injuries, handle with
isolating cloth while changing or wait until parts have
cooled down.
A damaged flash tube is extremely dangerous
because the electrically charged electrodes are
exposed and could be touched. Turn the unit off and
disconnect it from any power supply before replacing
the flash tube. Wait at least 15 minutes before
continuing the procedure and until any remaining
condenser voltage has dissipated. The EH Pro Mini
Heads are equipped with a user-replaceable flash
tube. In case of an exchange the safety regulations
must be strictly adhered to. (Replacement see page
48, Maintenance)
Assembly
When mounting to a ceiling system or a pantograph, the
suspended compact flash unit has to be doubly secured
from falling down or dropping. This is done by tightening
the safety screw (not included in the standard delivery)
into the thread of Hensel tilting head.
Due to the existing safety regulations, it is, however,
necessary to use a safety rope (Code No. 769) for further
security.
The safety rope has to be led through the handle of the
compact flash unit and then secured by looping through
the bracket on the pantograph or the eyelet on the
carriage.
