• Do not operate the unit with a missing or damaged wire safety guard,
safety glass lens (lamp containment), or UV filter.

• Do not direct the light at persons or look directly at lighted fixture.

• Use only with a 300 watt or smaller bulb. Installing a bulb of a higher
wattage could create a fire hazard or risk of burns. Use of a higher
wattage bulb will void the product warranty.

• Never touch the bulb with your bare hands. Oil from your skin can
cause premature failure. Always handle the bulb with gloves or a soft
cloth.

• If lens is replaced, use only a diffused tempered safety glass of
equal thickness.

• For maximum bulb life, position light so that the halogen bulb remains
within 4° of horizontal.

• Disassembly of your fixture will void the warranty.

• Use only with three wire extension cords that have three-prong
grounding plugs and that are suitable for outdoor use, such as cords
marked SW, SW-A, SOW, SOW-A, STW, STW-A, STOW, STOW-A,
SJW, SJW-A, SJOW, SJOW-A, SJTW, SJTW-A, SJTOW, SJTOW-A
and grounding receptacles that accept a three-prong plug. When the
fixture is used in wet locations, Ground Fault Circuit Interruption
(GFCI) protection must be provided on the circuit(s) or outlet(s) to be
used. Receptacles are available having built-in GFCI protection and
are able to be used for this measure of safety.

WARNING: Deviation from the assembly instructions may result in a
risk of fire or electric shock.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Replacing the bulb

Step 1: Loosen the screw located at the top of the fixture recessed

inside the outer shell.

Step 2: Open door frame assembly for easy access to the bulb.
Step 3: Using gloves or a soft cloth, press the bulb to one side of the

socket as indicated on the metal reflector. Remove opposite
end of bulb from the other side of the socket. Reverse this
procedure to install a new replacement bulb.

How to use

The fixture is packed in a compact storage position. Remove the fixture
from the carton. Loosen the knobs on the sides of the fixture and
swing the fixture up so that the lens guard is directly above the closed
or curved portion of the tubular steel stand. Retighten the knobs.

Aiming the fixture

Loosen the knobs located on the sides of the fixture housing. Using the
top carrying handle, tilt to desired position, then retighten knobs. There
is a stop designed in the stand assembly which restricts downward aim­ing of the fixture for safety reasons. To prevent over-heating and risk of
burns or fire, do not aim the fixture down at an angle of more than 10
degrees from horizontal.
