INSTALLATION & MAINTENANCE GUIDE

Optional: Install Glare Guard Before Installation

If you choose, you can attach the glare guard first before mounting the fixture. Use the screws and washers to secure the glare guard onto the fixture. Tighten with a screwdriver.

Install Luminaire in Brick or Masonry Wall

Install Mounting Plate

Determine the desired location for each luminaire before construction of the wall is started. Insert the stainless steel mounting plate (sold separately), in between the layers of hardscape material. If preferred, use an adhesive or mortar (sold separately), to secure the luminaire in place.

Install Luminaire

Route the luminaire wire through the wall to the main low voltage supply cable using standard masonry procedures. A “V” shaped notch can be cut into the hardscape material to aide in wire management.Attach the glare guard and the luminaire to the stainless steel mounting plate by using mounting screws (ships with mounting plate).

 Wire Connections

Strip both leads from the luminaire pigtail. Using two UL-listed wire connectors (sold separately), connect the leads from the luminaire to the main supply cable leads. * We recommend ace heat shrink style connectors for hardscape connections.

Adjust Lamp Direction

Using an Allen wrench, loosen the set screws on the ends of the lamp and then rotate the lamp to the desired direction. Always tighten the set screws after adjustments.

Install Luminaire in Railing, Deck Over-hang or Stair

Determine the desired location for the luminaire. Place the luminaire to the mounting surface and mark two points on the mounting surface where the holes are on the ends of the luminaire. The marks will be used for self-tapping screws or wall anchors.
Note: Wall anchors are required for certain installation conditions
(brick wall, concrete wall, etc.)
A wireway hole may be drilled through the decking fascia or other surface adjacent to the mounting surface.

1. Hold the luminaire in the desired mounting location. Mark the location where the wire exits the luminaire.
2. Drill a hole through surface (suggested 1/4” [6.5mm] hole).
3. Thread the wire through the drilled hole.

Install Luminaire

Install the luminaire and glare guard using provided self-tapping screws. If the screws are difficult to install, mark holes and drill 1/8” pilot holes.
If wall anchors are required, drill proper holes from the marks on the mounting surface and then insert the wall anchors. Then install the luminaire and glare guard and secure them with the self-tapping screws.
Rubber washers are required during installation from the side.

Install Luminaire to Y Bracket

Determine Luminaire Location

Place the luminaire onto the Y bracket using the rubber washers and screws. Tighten with a screwdriver.

Install Riser

Pass the supply wire from the luminaire through the center hole on the Y bracket and the riser. Then thread the riser onto the Y bracket and hand tighten until snug.

Install Stake

Determine the desired location for mounting the stake. Hammer the stake into the ground until flange of stake is flush to grade. To avoid damage to the stake, place a board on top of the stake while hammering.
Note: If the ground is hard and the stake is difficult to install, make a crosscut in the ground using a flat shovel.

Install Riser to Stake

Clear away area in the ground at were way slot on the top of the stake. Pass the fixture supply wire through the center hole of the stake and lay it into the wireway slots. Thread the riser onto the stake. Hand tighten until snug.
