GENERAL

Thisluminaireisdesignedforoutdoorlightingservice,andshouldnotbeusedinareasoflimitedventilation, or in high ambient temperatures. Best results will be obtained if installed and maintained according to the following recommendations.

UNPACKING

This luminaire has been properly packed so that no parts should have been damaged during transit. Inspect to confirm.

CAUTION: FLAT GLASS IS TEMPERED. DO NOT SCRATCH OR CHIP.

Bird Shields

Models: M4AR, M4AC, M4RC, M4RR

Models: MSRL, MSCL, MDRL, MDCL

The bird shield behind slip fitter clamp comes with an opening for 1 ¼ -inch (1.660 OD ) pipe.

If 2-inch pipe (2.375 OD) is used, bird shield is not necessary, and should be discarded.

Models: MDRA, MDCA, MSCA can be used only with 2 inch pipe therefore no bird shield is supplied.

INSTALLATION

INSTALLATION to Mounting Arm for Luminaire with 4 Slip fitter Bolts and two bottom doors (MDRA, MDCA, M4AR, M4AC)

Removepowermoduleballastdoorbylooseningcaptivescrew,releasingthedoorlatchandopeningdoor to a vertical position. Pull out polarized disconnect plug which connects top housing wiring with ballast door. Now grasp door securely in both hands and open door further until it comes free from hinges in top housing.Thisoccursatapproximately35degreesfromverticalonpolesideofhinge.Inthispositionhinge pins will easily slide upward out of their hinge cradles in top housing.

The pipe clamp accommodates only 2-inch pipe brackets for MDRA, MDCA and 1 ¼ inch thru 2 inch for M4AC, M4AR models. If necessary, adjust 4 pipe clamp bolts such that opening is slightly larger than pipe size being used.

The luminaire may be adjusted up or down with respect to pipe. A pad is provided on top of housing for convenient application of hand level.

To mount, Insert pipe carefully through birdshield (if required) and into back of the luminaire until it hits the leveling steps or stop that sticks down from the top of housing.

Hold luminaire approximately level and snug up bolts (4-5 foot-pounds). If more upward tilt of front of luminaireisneeded,firstloosenfronttwoboltsslightly,liftluminaireandre-snugthebacktwo.Ifdownward tilt is needed, reverse procedure by loosening back two bolts first.

Once proper level has been achieved, tighten each bolt to 10-12 foot-pounds, alternating front to back along diagonal of bracket as shown in Figure 1. If a torque wrench is not available, correct torque may be achieved by turning bolts two to three full turns (or until bottoming occurs) past “snug position’’. This should be done one turn at a time alternating in pattern according to Figure 1.

WARNING: UNDER NO CONDITIONS SHOULD BOLTS BE TORQUED TO A LEVEL GREATER THAN 12 FOOT-POUNDS.

The pipe clamp accommodates 1 1/4 inch through 2-inch pipe. If necessary, adjust the two pipe clamp bolts so that opening is slightly larger than pipe size being used. Insert pipe carefully through bird shield (if required) and into back of the luminaire until it hits the leveling steps, which stick down from the top of housing.

By selecting different steps, the luminaire may be adjusted up or down with respect to pipe. A crosshair pad is provided on top of housing for convenient application of hand level.

To mount, hold luminaire approximately level and snug up bolts (4-5 foot-pounds). If more upward tilt of front of luminaire is needed, loosen the bolts slightly, lift luminaire and insert it to the next set of leveling steps. If downward tilt is needed, reverse procedure by extracting the luminaire from the pipe to sit on a more rearward set of steps.

WIRING

NOTE: Make all electrical connections in accordance with the National Electrical Code and any applicable local code requirements including grounding.

NOTE: Verify that supply voltage is correct by comparing it to nameplate.

Terminals are readily accessible on terminal board and will accept service leads ranging in size from AWGNo.16throughNO.6.Serviceleads(Seefixturelabelingforsupplywiretemperaturerating)should extend through mounting bracket approximately 9 inches. Attach service leads to terminal board as shownonluminairenameplate.Awiringdiagramisprovidedonalabelinluminaire.Tochangevoltage of dual rated ballasts, see connection diagrams provided on ballast, in luminaire or tags.

PHOTOELECTRIC CONTROL

When used, photoelectric (PE) receptacle should be oriented so that the word “North” is directed toward truenorth.ThisisdonebyseatingaPEcontrolintoreceptacle,liftingupwardonPEcontrol(whichwillliftPE receptaclealso),androtatingthemclockwiseuntilword“North”isdirectedtowardtruenorth.ThenlowerPE control and receptacle to firmly seat them into position.

LAMP INSTALLATION

CAUTION

Risk of burn

•  Allow lamp/fixture to cool before handling

NOTE:Useonlylampsspecifiedonnameplate.Observelampmanufacturer’srecommendationsand restrictions on lamp operation; particularly ballast type, burning position, etc.

CAUTION: It is never necessary or advisable to allow door to drop free and swing.

Luminaries with two bottom doors

CAUTION: It is never necessary or advisable to allow door to drop free and swing.

If the refractor/lens requires assembly to the luminaire in door, it should be installed with its front edge under two tabs in front area of door. The latch(s) at back of the door should be turned counterclockwise to secure refractor in place.

To close door, swing it shut, hook latch bail over catch in top housing, and press backward on bottom of latch until latch engages.

To close door, swing it shut, hook latch bail over catch in top housing, and press backward on bottom of latch until latch engages.

Luminaries with one bottom door

Open lower the single door by pulling forward on bottom of latch(s) to release it. Lower door to vertical and install proper lamp.

To close door, swing it shut, hook latch bail over catch in top housing, and press backward on bottom of latch until latch engages

FINAL ASSEMBLY OF EITHER THE PWER MODULE DOOR OR SINGLE DOOR

To replace door, hold it at an angle of approximately 35 degrees from vertical and toward pole side of hinge. Carefully insert hinge pin into hinge and allow door to hang free. Note that door is mechanically interlocked with top housing in all positions except in the vicinity of removal location. All units: The doors are designed to be assembled to top housing while in upright position with gravity holding hinge pin properly in the cradle. If door is to be assembled to top housing while lying on its back, extreme care should be taken to ensure that hinge pin is properly engaged in the cradle by lifting up rear of door. Otherwise, breakage may occur.

MAINTENANCE

In order to maintain high efficiency of reflectors and refractors, a regular cleaning cycle should be establishedwithfrequencydependentonlocalconditions.Useamildsoapordetergentwhichisessentially neutral(followmanufacturer’srecommendation;pHapproximately6to8),nonabrasive,andwhichcontains nochlorinatedoraromatichydrocarbons.Washthoroughly,usingasoftcloth,orbrushifnecessary.Rinse in clean, cold water and wipe dry.

To remove door glass, rotate refractor clip 90 degrees clockwise. This allows glass to be removed. To replace, simply reverse procedure.

CAUTION: FLAT GLASS IS TEMPERED. DO NOT SCRATCH OR CHIP.

To remove a plug-in starting aid, grasp it near bottom at finger grips provided and pull it straight out. To replace, push firmly downward into position.

To remove wired starting aid, unscrew at base and gently remove wires. Take care to reinstall wires on the same terminal positions from which they were removed.

LAMP-POSITION ADJUSTMENT for models
