Mounting the Fixture
2-9
(3) Mount the fixtures and controllers in a 
location that is away from direct heat and 
protected from moisture.  Do not mount on a 
flammable surface.
(4)
 Maintain minimum distance of 1.0 meter 
(3.28 feet) from combustible materials.  
(5) Observe minimum distance to lighted 
objects of 1.0 meter (3.28 feet).  This means 
the fixture must be positioned at least 1 
meter away from the object it is 
illuminating.
(6) Use a secondary safety cable when 
mounting this fixture.
Standing the Fixture on its End Handles
The fixture’s end handles are designed to support its weight; however, 
make sure you observe the following guidelines:
1.
The fixture must be located away from moving objects that could 
strike it and cause it to become unbalanced.
2.
The fixture must be mounted on a sturdy, stable surface.
3.
If the surface is above floor height, make sure you use safety cables as 
described in the next section.
Mounting the Fixture on a Truss or Other 
Support System
If you are mounting the fixture on a truss or another type of support, 
do all of the following:
1.
Verify the truss or support will handle the weight of all the devices you 
are mounting.  Technobeam fixture weights are listed in the section 
titled “Weight (including yoke)” on page 1-2.
2.
The use of user-supplied safety cable is strongly recommended.  You 
must supply your own safety cable and you must verify the cable is 
capable of supporting the weight of the fixture as listed in the section 
titled “Weight (including yoke)” on page 1-2.  You can order galvanized 
safety cables from your High End Systems dealer/distributor (see 
“Optional Accessories” on page 1-5).
3.
You must supply your own clamps to attach the fixture to the support.  
Verify that the clamp(s) you use are capable of supporting the weight 
of the fixture as listed in the section titled “Weight (including yoke)” on
