way to power the fixture on and off. Do not use an external dimming system to
supply power to the fixture, as this may cause damage to the fixture that is not
covered by the product warranty. The fixture can be hard-wired to a building
electrical installation or a power plug (not supplied with the EU model) that is
suitable for the local power outlets can be installed on the power cable.
If you install a power plug on the power cable, install a grounding type
(earthed) plug with integral cable grip that is rated minimum 250 V, 6 A. Follow
the plug manufacturer’s instructions and connect the wires in the power cable
as shown in this table:

Cleaning
Excessive dust, smoke fluid, and particle buildup degrades performance,
causes overheating and will damage the fixture. Damage caused by
inadequate cleaning or maintenance is not covered by the product warranty.
The cleaning of external optical lenses must be carried out periodically to
optimize light output. Cleaning schedules for lighting fixtures vary greatly
depending on the operating environment. It is therefore impossible to specify
precise cleaning intervals for the fixture. Environmental factors that may result
in a need for frequent cleaning include:
•
•
•
•
Use of smoke or fog machines.
High airflow rates (near air conditioning vents, for example).
Presence of cigarette smoke.
Airborne dust.
If one or more of these factors is present, inspect fixtures within their first 100
hours of operation to see whether cleaning is necessary. Check again at
frequent intervals. This procedure will allow you to assess cleaning
requirements in your particular situation. If in doubt, consult your RUSH by
Martin dealer about a suitable maintenance schedule.
Use gentle pressure only when cleaning, and work in a clean, well-lit area. Do
not use any product that contains solvents or abrasives, as these can cause
surface damage.
RUSH Gobo Projector 1TM User Manual

To clean the fixture:
1. Disconnect the fixture from power and allow it to cool for at least 15
minutes.
2. Vacuum or gently blow away dust and loose particles from the outside of
the fixture with low-pressure compressed air.
3. Clean the surfaces by wiping gently with a soft, clean lint-free cloth
moistened with a weak detergent solution. Do not rub glass surfaces hard:
lift particles off with a soft repeated press. Dry with a soft, clean, lint-free
cloth or low-pressure compressed air. Remove stuck particles with an
unscented tissue or cotton swab moistened with glass cleaner or distilled
water.
4. Check that the fixture is dry before reapplying power.
