Lowel Omni-light Instructions
The Lowel Omni-lights are professional
lighting fixtures. Read these instructions
and lamp manufacturer’s warnings fully
before operating.
n Not for household use, use only for
film, video or imaging purposes.
n Do not leave lit fixture unattended.
n Unplug lights when unattended
or when relamping.
n Make certain that lamp voltage
matches power source voltage.
The unit uses lamps of different voltages
(example: never connect a 120 volt lamp
to a 220/240 volt source).
n Lights such as these emit
considerable light and heat and, if not
properly used, could be dangerous.
n The Protective Screen must be used
to protect people
and property
in the unlikely
event of a
defective lamp
exploding.
n Open faced
lights should
not be posi-
tioned extremely
close to people. Ultraviolet light ray emissions
can cause damage to the eyes and reddening
of the skin. The likelihood of either occurring
is increased with length of exposure, focus
intensity and proximity. Therefore, lights
should be kept away from people or a
dichroic, frosted glass, or clear glass should
be used. Bounce illumination also reduces
this problem.
n Avoid aiming the light at,
or placing close to, people, delicate objects
or flammable materials.
n Do not interfere with ventilation
by covering the lights in any way.
n Never touch hot parts.
n Do not use near standing water.
n Lights should be operated with
lamp filament horizontal.
n Avoid mounting lights directly
over people unless secured with a safety
cord or cable.
n Do not focus Omni to spot when using
with umbrella accessory.

Omni Lamps Replacement
Always unplug unit before relamping.
Lamps must be operated at their rated voltage.
Avoid touching “glass” with bare fingers. Insert
lamp carefully, to avoid breaking. Due to incon-
sistencies in lamp (bulb) production, an indi-
vidual lamp may function for more or less than
its average rated life. Some lamp manufactures
are of better quality than others and may pro-
vide longer life and better performance. Lamps
may be changed with reflectors installed or
removed.
A Remove safety screen
B Hold focus knob in spot position
C Rock lamp gently from
side to side while lifting from socket.
The electrical contacts of the Omni lamp
socket are very “stiff” and require consider-
able lamp insertion pressure to properly seat
the lamp. If the lamp is not fully inserted,
it can cause arcing and pitting of
both the socket and lamp pins reducing
both lamp and socket life. Replace
safety screen. Never operate light without
Protective Screen, metal scrim or safety glass
accessory. We suggest that you do not
remove the lamp from the fixture when trans-
porting the light, locally.
