This luminaire is designed for outdoor lighting service, and should not be used in areas of limited ventilation, or in high ambient temperature enclosures; 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.
INSTALLATION
CAUTION
Unit will fall if not installed properly

optical. To mount trunnion from overhead struc-
tures swing trunnion above unit as shown above.
GEH-5758C
INSTRUCTIONS
For aimed-up applications, remove two screws from rear bottom corners of back housing, and re­install in front housing bottom corners.
This floodlight is provided with either trunnion mount-
ing, pipe mounting, or wall mounting means.
1. Trunnion Mounted Units: Trunnion bracket mounts directly on flat surface. Mounting adapters available for installa­tion on poles, crossarms, pipes, etc. The trunnion bracket has a clearance hole of a 3/4-inch bolt used for attachment to such mountings. Tighten side trunnion bolts to 50 - 55 foot pounds.
2. Pipe Mounted Units: Slipfitter to fit 2-3/8 through 3 inch OD pipe is available. Three (3) set screws are used to clamp the floodlight securely to the pipe. Nuts tighten against the cast slipfitter. Tighten set screws to 18 - 22 foot pounds.
3. Wall Mounted Units: Wall mounting plate is provided with four (4) 0.438-inch clearance holes spaced
4.375(H)x2.875(V) inches for mounting.
B. WIRING:
Make all electrical connections in accordance with the National Electrical Code and any applicable local code requirements.
Verify that supply voltage is correct by comparing it to nameplate.
Do not remove insulated connectors from wires not needed for required voltage connection.
Connect ground lead to the green lead, green ground screw on housing or terminal block pro­vided.
Replace power fuses only with fuses of the same type and ratings.
These instructions do not purport to cover all details or variations in equipment nor to provide for every possible contingency to be met in connection with installation, operation or maintenance. Should further information be desired or should particular problems arise which are not covered sufficiently for the purchaser’s purposes, the matter should be referred to GE Lighting Solutions.

WIRING
IF SINGLE VOLTAGE:
All single voltage ballasts are pre-wired such that user need only connect the supply conductors.
IF MULTIVOLT: (120/208/240/277 volts)
Connect the ballast lead with the insulated terminal to the desired voltage terminal as indicated on the ballast terminal nameplate.
IF MULTIWATT:
Multiwatt ballasts are available in various combina­tions of wattage. See wiring instructions on wiring tag inside the luminaire.
Reposition protective insulation shield, if present. Close and secure door, taking care not to pinch any
leads.
TRUNNION MOUNTED UNITS:
NOTE: Cable strain relief and sealing are provided by the compression plate and rubber bushing supplied for 9/16-inch O.D. cable. Three conductor, AWG No. 14, 105°C minimum cable is required.
(See Figure 1)
1. Open door by loosening two door screws or latches.
2. Remove protective insulation shields, if present.
3. Insert cable through compression plate and rubber bushing and secure by tightening screw.
4. Make electrical connections.
5. Re-install protective shields, if present.
PIPE AND WALL MOUNTED UNITS:
Open wiring compartment cover located on the
mounting bracket. Make electrical connections and close wiring compartment cover.
NOTE: For multivolt units refer to "Ballast Connections on Multivolt Units".
NOTE: Pipe and wall mounted multivolt units require the luminaire housing to be opened to make the correct voltage connections.
UNITS WITH EXTERNAL SUPPLY CORD:
Make electrical connections to supply cable.
NOTE: Multivolt units with the external supply cord require the luminaire housing to be opened to make the correct voltage connections.
Internal Louver Option Figure 3
which permits setting floodlight to any predetermined vertical angle.
Install cut-off internal louver as shown in figure 3. Press-fit louver into reflector and secure flanges with clips provided. Louver is designed for usage with HPS lamps only (maximum E-25 bulb diameter). Remove louver for relamping.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
Risk of burn
Allow lamp/fixture to cool before
handling
A. CLEANING:
It will occasionally be necessary to clean outside of door glass to maintain light level. Frequency of cleaning will depend on ambient dirt level and minimum light level which is acceptable. Door glass should be washed in a solution of warm water and any mild, nonabrasive household detergent, rinsed with clean water and wiped dry. Should optical assembly become dirty, wipe reflector and clean door glass in above manner.
NOTE: Door removed by removing hinge pins.
B: LAMP REPLACEMENT:
The light output of a luminaire is also dependent on age of lamp. In applications where light level is critical it may be desirable to replace lamps before they burn out. Lamp manufacturer can provide data showing how lamp light output decreases with use.
Use only lamps specified on nameplate. Observe
lamp manufacturer’s recommendations and restric-
tions on lamp operation, particularly ballast type,
burning position, etc.
C. PHOTOELECTRIC CONTROL:
Photoelectric control receptacle (if present) should be oriented before control is installed. Loosen the two holding screws and rotate receptacle until 'North' is directed as near as possible to true North. Tighten holding screws and install control.
D. AIMING:
Center target in sighting hole located on top of fixture. (See figure 2). Mounting includes a degree scale

LAMP TIGHTNESS: The lamp should be securely inserted to NEMA-EEI specified torque of 35 inch­pounds, which is best achieved by very firmly tighten­ing to insure application of sufficient torque. Tightening must be sufficient to fully depress and load center contact of socket.
After tightening lamp, lamp end support should be latched with a twisting motion.
