PHOTO YOKE
A standard safety chain may be attached to
any C-series Light either through a key ring on
the Standard Yoke tab, or through an eye bolt
with 1/4”-20 on the light’s interface
Both the Standard Yoke and Studio Yoke have
mounting tabs 180 degrees apart, at 90° and
270°, on the outer diameter of the yoke. These
tabs allow for a variety of power accessories
to be mounted directly to the C-Series fixture.
The primary accessories that can be mounted
here are the Power Supply Mounting Bracket
and the Battery Plate mount.
To mount power accessories to the yoke, use

on the base of the yoke. Hold the light securely
with one hand, and use the other to twist the
mount’s locking knob clockwise until tight.
The C-Series fixture is secured inside of the
Photo Yoke using a Profoto© style mounting

fixture. Once the desired position of the
C-Series fixture is achieved, secure the ring in
place by closing the locking clamp attached
to the rubber collar on the outside of the
mounting ring.
