Assembly and Installation
Attaching and installing the light
WARNING: Never use a hammer to insert the light into the ground.
- Insert the fixture wire on the wire connector (C) into the groove located on the top of the ground stake (B).
- Screw the ground stake (B) into the lamp body (A). Ensure the fixture wire on the wire connector (C) stays in the center of the groove of the ground stake (B) to avoid damage to the fixture wire.
- Prepare a hole in the installation location. Use a tool such as a screwdriver to prepare the installation hole to ensure that the hole is not larger than the ground stake (B).
- Install the ground stake (B) in the ground by pushing on the lamp body (A).
Connecting the wires
WARNING: The wire connector (C) contacts have sharp edges for piercing
the main low voltage cable. To avoid injury, do not touch the metal contacts.
CAUTION: The wire from low voltage power unit should be 12-16 AWG type
underground low Energy Circuit Cable.
IMPORTANT:
- Protect the wiring by routing it in close proximity to the light fitting, or next to a building structure such as a house or a deck.
- The landscape wire and connector can also be hidden under stone or buried under grass at a maximum depth of 6 in. (15.24 cm).
- Do not install the fixture within 10 ft. of a pool, spa, or fountain.
- Do not submerge the fixture in water.
- Place the wire connector (C) on opposite sides of the low voltage cable (not included) from the transformer (not included) where the fixture will be located.
- Align and fit the main low voltage cable vertically to the slot of the wire connector (C).
- Press the wire connector (C) together until it is locked around the main low voltage cable. The pre-set prongs will pierce the cable insulation and establish contact with the electrical wire inside.
- Once the wire connector (C) is in place, it is recommended to wrap it with electrical tape (not included).
- After all fixtures are installed, turn on the transformer.
Care and Cleaning
- Clean the fixture with a soft dry cloth.
- Do not use any cleaners with chemicals, solvents or harsh abrasives.
Troubleshooting

breaker or GFCI circuit has not been tripped. Follow the wires from the
fixture and ensure a continuous connected path back to the transformer.
Check the settings on the transformer.
The light flickers (one fixture).| There is a loose wire
connector to the fixture.| Tighten the wire connector and ensure the metal
contacts pierce the insulation on the low voltage cable from the transformer.
The lights flicker (all fixtures).| There is a loose connection at the
transformer.| Unplug the transformer from the outlet and visually inspect the
positive and negative connecting points. Each wire should be securely screwed
in and not in contact with any other.
