REPLACING GOBOS AND COLOR FILTERS
WARNING!
Before attempting any of the following, ensure that the fixture is isolated from mains.
COLOR FILTERS
The PAL uses 52 mm square dichroic color filters, all easily interchangeable. You can also fit D-size gobos on the color wheel.
To hold these in place you will need a specially made metal frame (P/N 17320130)
1.
Access and remove the color/gobo module as described on page 19.
2.
Turn the color wheel until the color filter you wish to replace becomes accessible. The color filter is held in
place by a spring. Remove the spring by pressing the two ends together, then remove the color filter.
3.
Insert the new color filter and replace the spring. .
GOBO INSTALLATION
The PAL uses standard D-size metal gobos or glass gobos with overall diameter between 49.5 mm and 50.0 m. Both types are
easily interchangeable. Custom made glass gobos should have the same image size as a standard D-size gobo, i.e. Ø 44 mm.

Turn the gobo wheel until the gobo you wish to replace becomes accessible.

The gobo is held in place by a spring. Remove this spring by pressing the two ends together, then remove
the gobo.
