Martin can supply installation hardware such as rigging clamps and safety cables that are suitable for use
with the fixture (see the product specifications on the MAC One product page on the Martin website at
www.martin.com).
Installation location
Fasten the fixture to a secure structure or surface or stand it on a surface where it cannot be moved or fall
over. If you install the fixture in a location where it may cause injury or damage if it falls, secure it as
directed in this manual using a securely anchored safety cable that will hold the fixture if the primary
fastening method fails.
Avoiding damage from other light sources
Do not point the light output from other lighting fixtures at the MAC One, as powerful light can damage the
display.
Standing the fixture on a flat surface
The fixture can be placed on a hard, flat, secure horizontal surface provided that there is no risk that it
may cause an obstruction or be knocked over. Ensure that the surface can support at least six (6) times
the weight of all items that it will support.
If you install the fixture in a location where it may cause injury or damage if it falls, secure it as directed in
this chapter with a securely anchored safety cable.
Mounting on a truss in free-hanging mode
The fixture can be clamped to a truss or similar rigging structure using the supplied omega bracket and a
rigging clamp that is approved for the weight that it will support, on condition that the fixture is installed
hanging freely downwards only.
To clamp the fixture to a truss:
1. Check that the rigging structure can support at least six times (or more if required by local regulations)
the weight of all fixtures and equipment to be installed on it.
2. Block access under the work area.
3. The fixture is supplied with a Martin omega bracket. Bolt a rigging clamp that is in perfect condition
and approved for the weight that it will support securely to the omega bracket. Use an M12 grade 8.8
steel minimum bolt with a self-locking nut.
4. Fasten the omega bracket to the base of the fixture by locking the bracket’s quarter-
turn fasteners into the receptacles (A in illustration on next page) in the base of the
fixture. Turn quarter-turn fasteners a full 90° to lock them as shown on right.
5. Note the position of the arrow marked FRONT (see illustration on next page). Working
from a stable platform, hang the fixture on the truss and fasten the rigging clamp
onto the truss with FRONT pointing towards the main area to be illuminated.
6. Secure the fixture with a safety cable as directed on next page.
7. Check that the head will not collide with other fixtures or objects.
