INCANDESCENT

1. Using the mounting diagram below, cut the mounting holes for your light.

2. Feed the lamp assembly wires through the hole shown below. The WHITE or RED wires are for high power
operation and the BLACK wire is for low power operation. Use appropriate wire connectors.

3. Insert the lamp unit into the mounting hole. Be sure no wires are caught between mounting surface and lamp unit.

4. Attach the lamp to the roof of the vehicle using appropriate size screws.

WARNING! You can not have insulation of any kind covering the back of the lighthead. This will cause
excessive heat to build up.

WARNING!WARNING!

Larger wires and tight connections will provide longer service life for components. For high
current wires it is highly recommended that terminal blocks or soldered connections be
used with shrink tubing to protect the connections. Do not use insulation displacement
connectors (e.g. 3M® Scotchlock type connectors). Route wiring using grommets and
sealant when passing through compartment walls. Minimize the number of splices to
reduce voltage drop. High ambient temperatures (e.g. underhood) will significantly reduce
the current carrying capacity of wires, fuses, and circuit breakers. Use "SXL" type wire in
engine compartment. All wiring should conform to the minimum wire size and other
recommendations of the manufacturer and be protected from moving parts and hot sur­faces. Looms, grommets, cable ties, and similar installation hardware should be used to
anchor and protect all wiring. Fuses or circuit breakers should be located as close to the
power takeoff points as possible and properly sized to protect the wiring and devices.
Particular attention should be paid to the location and method of making electrical connec­tions and splices to protect these points from corrosion and loss of conductivity. Ground
terminations should only be made to substantial chassis components, preferably directly
to the vehicle battery. The user should install a fuse sized to approximately 125% of the
maximum Amp capacity in the supply line to protect against short circuits. For example,
a 30 Amp fuse should carry a maximum of 24 Amps. DO NOT USE 1/4" DIAMETER
GLASS FUSES AS THEY ARE NOT SUITABLE FOR CONTINUOUS DUTY IN SIZES
ABOVE 15 AMPS. Circuit breakers are very sensitive to high temperatures and will "false
trip" when mounted in hot environments or operated close to their capacity.
