5. See Figure 15. Rotate the goboholder until its magnet

(arrowed) lines up with a reference point that you choose on

the module chassis. Remove and insert any gobos you

replace one by one, with the goboholder magnets lined up

with your reference point, and avoid rotating the gobo wheel

while a gobo is removed. This will keep gobos in the

orientation they were designed for and avoid the need to

reprogram the controller because a gobo orientation has

changed during service.

6. See Figure 16. Grasp the goboholder A by its

edge and pull it out of its clip B, ensuring that

it clears the surrounding plate C in the gobo

wheel to remove it from the wheel. You may

need to press gently down on the plate C

while you pull the gobo free.

7. Note that fused glass gobos such as

Limbo/Crystal are glued into the goboholder

and cannot be removed from it. If you need to

replace a fused glass gobo, you must replace

the entire goboholder. Other types of glass

gobo are held in their holders by springs and

can be removed from the holders as

described below.

8. See Figure 17, With a small screwdriver or similar, unhook the

end of the gobo spring furthest from the gobo and pull out the

spring. Drop the gobo out of the holder onto a clean, soft

surface.

9. Insert the new gobo in the holder with that must face towards

the lamp – the more reflective side – facing upwards towards the

spring (see Figure 17 and Figure 13).
