OceanLED must be contacted prior to any light cartridge being removed from the mounting tube. OceanLED recommends dry fitting all products. When installing, be sure that the light fits the area and secures to the hull using the appropriate hardware before applying any sealant. - Page 8 EXPLORE INSTALL & OPERATION MANUAL Installation (Once hull preparation is complete) 1. Test light(s) before fitting into the hull. 2. If using a Delrin Isolation Kit, insert the Isolation Kit front washer into the drilled hole and apply marine sealant to seal between the Front Washer and the hull.

Insert the complete light unit (mounting tube assembly + light cartridge) into the hull, pressing the light hard into the hull and twist slightly to spread the sealant around behind the light to ensure good adhesion. This process is made much easier if a second person is inside the hull to receive the light and install the locking equipment whilst supporting the light from the outside.

Lights should be cleaned with a boat brush or similar bi-weekly, or as needed to keep the lens of the light clean. -
