• When taking a series of flash shots at full light output and fast recycling
times as provided by NiCad battery operation, make sure to observe an
interval of at least 10 minutes after 15 flashes, otherwise the flash unit
will be overloaded.
• Never cover the ventilation slots and intake openings on the flashgun!
A built-in cooling fan is automatically switched on when the temperature
inside the flashgun exceeds 40°C.
• As a result of the high light energy of a series of flashes shot with full
light output in quick succession, the diffuser becomes intensely heated in
zoom positions of 35 mm and less. In such an event the flash recycling
time is automatically extended in order to protect the mecablitz against
overheating.
• To remove the control unit's cable, press the gray release button against
the cable's plug while pulling out the cable (Fig. 1).

2. Preparing the flash unit for use

2.1 Mounting the flash unit on the camera

Before mounting or removing the flash unit, switch off both the ca-
mera and the flash unit!
The mecablitz can only be mounted on the camera with the SCA 301 stand-
ard foot or an SCA 300/SCA 3_ _2 adapter (optional extra).
As standard, the mecablitz is fitted with the SCA 301 foot for simple flash
synchronisation. The shutter speed must be the same or slower than the X
synch speed.
Mounting the standard foot or SCA adapter:
• Hold the cover plate on the control unit (only when the SCA 3__2 adapter
is used) in the middle and withdraw.
• Push the SCA adapter or SCA 301 standard foot all the way into the con-
trol unit.
Mounting the mecablitz:
• Secure the flash bracket with the locking screw to the camera's tripod-
socket.
• Press the unlocking button of the NiCad battery and turn the battery lid
anti-clockwise until the first locking position is reached.
• Insert the holding block of the bracket in the guiding groove of the flash
unit.
• Secure the holding block with the clamping screw.
• Turn back the battery lid clockwise until it is locked in again; the rectangu-
lar catch will then cover the opening of the guiding groove.
• Insert the control unit with mounted adapter or standard foot 301 in the
camera's accessory shoe and secure with the clamping nut.
• Insert the control unit's cable plug into the handle-mount flash unit.
