Heavy duty motorized remote controlled light rotates with use of wired remote control. Remote
controlled search light contains a 35 watt HID lamp that projects a beam more than 5000 feet. Using
current formulas for adjusted retail candlepower, this light generates 15 million candlepower. Using
more traditional, industrial formula for calculating candlepower, this remote controlled searchlight
generates 600,000 candlepower.

LIGHT MOUNTING


Light should be mounted forward for the operator's position on the boat.

Use the mounting gasket as a template to drill mounting holes. A 7/8" (20 mm) hole is required
to pass the cable plug.

The short base has a line on the mounting flange to indicate the forward positioning of the light.

The cable plug can be pushed below the mounting into the hole or pushed into the base of the
tall base model lights.

The cable is routed through the boat to the control location.

CONTROL MOUNTING

1. Select a location near the helm position to mount the control. Check under the mounting area
to assure there is adequate clearance for the control.
2. Cut 2-3/4" (70 mm) diameter hole for the control and drill two holes for the mounting screws.
3. Power to control must be controlled by the boat running light switch. The searchlight control
has LED illumination that will power on with the boat running lights. The searchlight can only be
used with the running lights on. The running light circuit must be capable of carrying the
following amperage load in addition to the running lights and have a fuse or circuit breaker of
appropriate size.
4. Connect the RED control power lead to the switched side of the running light circuit.
