Use

Mounting / Leveling:
Determine the size of the mast arm. This luminaire is designed to accommodate a mast arm from 1-1/4” to 2” diameter. The luminaire is factory set to mount to the 11/4” arm. To mount to a 2” arm, the  following modificationis required.
The V-shaped bracket must be flipped. Remove the fitter bolts and flip the bracket to mount to a 2” arm.

Standard Mounting:

Loosen (DO NOT REMOVE) the fitter bolts. Lift the luminaire into position in front of the mast arm such that the mast arm enters through the opening at the rear of the luminaire housing. The luminaire should be mounted with the glass facing down. The luminaire should never be mounted with the glass facing up. The luminaire illumination tilt angle may be adjusted by the adjustment steps located in the rear of the housing. Recommended fitter bolt torque: 10-12 FT- LBS
CAUTION
OVER-TORQUING OF FITTER CLAMP BOLTS CAN CREATE CRACKS IN THE HOUSING CAUSING THE FIXTURE TO FALL TO THE GROUND.
WIRING: Feed the supply wires through the mast arm, dress them so they do not interfere with any components and so they will not be pinched in the door and connect them to the proper terminals on the terminal block or free leads. Some luminaires also include an optional terminal block cover which will need to be lifted. Verify the supply voltage is correct as noted on the nameplate label. If included, push the terminal block cover back in place to keep terminals covered.

Recommended terminal block screw torque: 15 IN-LBS

Optional Photocontrol:

Plug the photocontrol into the receptacle ensuring gasket is firmly seated. Twist clockwise until it locks into position. If Photocontrol Receptacle rotation is required, loosen the two receptacle screws, but do not remove.
