Installation Instructions With Two Piece Arm

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION.
NOTE: All wiring must be run in accordance with the National Electrical Code (Canadian Electrical Code in Canada) through
conduit or another acceptable means. Contact a qualified electrician if there is any question as to the suitability of
the system.
CAUTION: Make sure the power is off before starting
the installation.
1. Select a location on a flat wall with structurally sound wood
and from 10 to 25 feet from the ground. The wood should
be at least one inch thick to safely secure the fixture.
2. Slide the curved section of the mounting arm into the
mounting bracket. Tighten the bolts on the mounting
bracket evenly.
3. Using the mounting arm and bracket as a guide mark
four mounting holes. We suggest drilling 3/16" pilot holes
for the lag screws.
4. Mount the arm and bracket using four lag screws and
washers provided.
5. Place a ring of silicone caulk around mounting arm (see
illustration). Slide the straight section of the mounting arm
on to the curved section aligning the predrilled holes.
6. Secure the two sections with two bolts, nuts and four
washers provided. Place silicone caulk on top of the bolts
and washers to prevent water from entering.
7. Thread your outdoor cable or flexible conduit through the
mounting arm.
8. Loosely connect the mounting strap to the fixture using
two bolts provided.
9. Slide the fixture on to the mounting arm until the fixture
comes to a stop. Secure the fixture to the mounting arm
by tightening the two mounting strap bolts.
10.Connect the fixture wires to the service wires using the wire
nuts provided (black to black and white to white). Push
the connections as far as possible into the straight arm.
11. This fixture must be grounded. Connect the service
ground under the head of the green ground screw and
secure to the mounting strap.
12.Install the lens/reflector assembly with two screws and
washers provided.
13.Install ONLY a 175 watt mercury vapor type H39
lamp (provided).
14.Loosen the screw in the center of the photocontrol socket
two turns. Twist the socket so that the arrow points north.
Note: There is a stop to prevent the socket from turning
all the way around. If you have trouble turning the socket,
try turning it the other direction. Retighten the screw in
the center of the socket.

15.Align the photocontrol (it will only plug-in one way). Plug
it in and twist clockwise until it stops.
To test operation during daylight, cover the photocontrol with
a small box. Turn on the power. Not all photocontrols are
alike. Some may have a time delay of a few minutes, others
will turn on as soon as power is applied. The light will take up
to ten minutes to reach full brightness. Uncover the
photocontrol and your unit will operate automatically—on at
dusk, off at dawn.
