Safety Precautions Cont. The F8-200 is equipped with a temperature sensor and fan control. In the unlikely event that the fan malfunctions or the fixture operates at too high a temperature, the fixture will put itself into a safe mode and limit the light output. At first, the fixture will drop its maximum power to 80% of full output. The display will flash a warning for “TEMPERATURE” to let the operator know it is running at reduced power.
First Set Up – Assembly Instructions To optimize the correct performance of your fixture, please follow these simple assembly instructions, and refer to this manual if you ever need to reattach the yoke assembly to your fixture. In some instances, the yoke assembly will be shipped separated from your fixture. There are several nylon washers that are be used to correctly space the metal parts from one another.

There are two positions for the barn door ears – open (the packed position) and locked (or the forward position). Please refer to figures 1 and 2 to understand the different positions of the barn door ears.
