2.1 MOUNTING

The RUBYFCX may be set up on a solid and even surface. By means of the xing facilities of the baseplate,

the unit can also be mounted upside down to a cross arm. The base plate is shown in g.3. For xing, stable

mounting clips are required. According to the gure, the bolts of the brackets are placed into the openings

provided in the base plate and turned clockwise until they lock (to the stop). Always ensure that the unit

is rmly xed to avoid vibration and slipping while operating. The mounting place must be of sucient

stability and be able to support a weight of 10 times of the unit’s weight. When carrying out any installa-

tion, always comply scrupulously with all the regulations (particularly regarding safety) currently in force

in the country in which the xture’s being used. Always additionally secure the projector with the safety

rope from falling down. For this purpose, fasten the safety rope at a suitable position so that the maximum

fall of the projector will be 20 cm.
