The maximum modelling lamp wattage for all Rotalux softboxes is limited to
300W. Ensure that the Rotalux is correctly assembled and locked to the flash unit.
The unit, the flash tube and accessories may become very hot during and after
use! To avoid injuries, handle with isolating cloth or wait until parts have cooled
down.
Even though we use fire retardant materials the fabric should never get in contact
with the hot flash tube or the modelling lamp.
The metal speedring and the locking knob for the revolving system may heat up
enormously when the flash unit is used at maximum power levels of flash and
modelling lamp. Please wait until the parts have cooled down, before packing
away.
Always switch the flash unit off before fitting or exchanging reflectors and soft-
boxes.
Ensure that the ventilation system of flash units is working correctly.
Double check that the internal fabric diffuser is correctly fitted and does not make
contact with the hot flash tube and the modelling lamp.
Lower the modelling lamp power and reduce the number of flashes per minute,
when small size softboxes are used. The reflective surface is very close to the
modelling lamp/ flashtube. The fabric can be damaged by excessive heat.
