Monolights should always have the
protective cover over the flash tube
whenever the lights are not in use.
Flashtubes are delicate and expensive so
please be careful when removing and
replacing the flash tube covers.
Allow lights to cool for a few minutes
before fitting protective cover
The protective covers and softboxes,
snoots etc are attached using a bayonet
mount and a slight twist is needed to fit
them to the monolight.
It should click into position.
If it hasn’t clicked, you haven’t done it
properly.
Just as with your camera there is a
button to press to release the bayonet
mount (arrow at left).
The bayonet mount has three lugs as per
the image at left that fit into the slots on
the monolight.
Remove the soft box from its bag and
place it on a clean floor as at right.
