Introduction Thank you for choosing the Impact Hexi 24 Speedlight Softbox. This lighting accessory works with hot shoe speedlight flashes of any size. Sporting a highly reflective silver interior surface, the Hexi 24 includes a front diffuser and inner baffle, providing the user with two layers of light diffusing material. These layers soften and spread your speedlight’s output over a larger surface area for a more even and flattering portrait light.

Assembly Instructions 6 1. Remove the softbox and the flash bracket from the carrying case. 2. Open the softbox by securing the flex rods in place. Simply push back each flex rod into it's individual slot. You will hear a clicking sound as you push each flex rod into place. Continue by securing opposite rods rather than adjacent ones until all six flex rods are secured. 3. Insert the flash bracket rods into the flash bracket mounts on the rear of the softbox.
5. Remove the inner baffle and front diffuser from the bag. 6. Install the inner baffle to the softbox by securing the baffle clips to the baffle loops on the inner (silver) face of the softbox. Do this by laying each baffle clip's entry point against a loop and tugging on the clip with sufficient tension to pull it into the loop. 7. Unfold the front diffuser and attach it to the touch fastener fabric inside the front rim of the softbox.
Assembly Instructions 8. 8 To adjust the tilt of the flash bracket handle, turn the handle adjustment knob counterclockwise until the tilt can be adjusted. Once the desired tilt has been established, secure the knob by turning the handle adjustment knob clockwise. 9. To mount the softbox to a 5/8” light stand mount, place the 5/8” mount on the bottom of the flash bracket handle onto the light stand stud. Turn the light stand tightening knob clockwise to secure.
10. To mount your flash to the Flash bracket, insert your flash or remote triggering unit’s hot shoe foot into the bracket’s cold shoe mount. Adjust the distance of the flash from the softbox flash mouth by turning the cold shoe mount tightening knob counterclockwise until loose. Adjust the mount by sliding it up or down the bracket until your flash is inside the softbox flash mouth (You may also have to readjust the height of the flash bracket rods. See page 6).
Takedown Instructions 1. After removing your flash, turn the flash bracket tightening knobs counterclockwise until loose and remove the softbox from the flash bracket handle. 2. If desired, remove the front diffuser and inner baffle from the softbox and place them in the carrying case. NOTE: The Hexi 24 can be collapsed and stored without removing the inner baffle and front diffuser for quick setup next use. 10 3.
