INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION
To ensure optimal performance and safety, it is important to use our fixtures
ONLY with a low voltage landscape transformer. This transformer reduces the
voltage from 120V to 12V, making it safe and suitable for outdoor use.
When installing the fixture(s), please follow these instructions carefully:
-
Before installation, please ensure that the power is turned off for your safety.
-
Hold the metal plate against the wall at the desired height and orientation. Ensure it is level and aligned according to your preferences.
Using a pencil or marker, carefully mark the screw hole locations on the wall through the holes in the metal plate.
Select an appropriately sized drill bit for the pilot holes, which should match the diameter of the screws you are using. It is recommended to use a bit slightly smaller than the screws to provide a secure grip.
Position the drill bit on each marked spot and gently drill pilot holes into the wall at the marked locations. Take care not to drill too deep, ensuring the depth matches the length of the screws.
To create the necessary hole for the back of fixture, use a drill bit or hole saw that matches the size of the provided metal plate. For concrete installation, utilize an outlet/junction box (not included) suitable for the purpose.
Gently punch the hole on the deck or use the appropriate outlet/junction box (not included) for concrete surfaces. Exercise caution to maintain a clean and neat hole.
Place the metal plate against the wall, aligning the screw holes with the pilot holes you created.
Take the screws and insert them through the holes in the metal plate, one at a time.
Using a screwdriver, tighten the screws gradually and evenly, ensuring a secure attachment of the metal plate to the wall. Be cautious not to overtighten and damage the wall surface.
• Confirm that the metal plate is firmly and evenly attached to the wall, without any wobbling or misalignment.
• Use a level to verify that the metal plate is horizontally or vertically aligned, as desired.
For deck installation, position the metal plate carefully within the hole.
If installing in concrete, secure the Step Light using the outlet/junction box (not included) you prepared earlier.
We recommend using WN12 waterproof wire nuts (sold separately) for optimal connectivity. -
Strip the insulation: Carefully strip approximately 3/4 inch (1.9 cm) of insulation from the ends of the two wires you wish to connect. Ensure that the bare metal ends are clean and free from any frayed strands.
-
Align the wires: Hold the stripped ends of the two wires together, aligning them neatly and ensuring that no stray strands are crossing over.
-
Insert the aligned ends of the wires into the wire nut, ensuring that they go all the way in.
The bare ends should be completely covered by the wire nut. Twist the wire nut: Firmly twist the wire nut clockwise onto the wires, ensuring a secure connection. Continue twisting until the wire nut is tight and snug. Test the connection:
Gently tug on each wire to ensure they are securely held by the wire nut.
Simply thread the wires through the wire nut and twist it until it is securely in place. -
