otherwise servicing these ﬁxtures.

WARNING!

To reduce ﬁre and shock hazard: Disconnect power before servicing. Install and maintain ﬁxture to meet all applicable codes. Ensure that ﬁxtures and wiring are properly grounded. Read and follow all instructions, electrical data markers, lamp carton warnings and wiring labels before installing. Installation of ﬁxture is to be preformed by a qualiﬁed, licensed electrician only. The installer of this ﬁxture is responsible for sale, secure mounting suitable for the application. Once ﬁxture is installed, give these instructions to the equipment owner.

CAUTION!

• High temperature tempered glass sometimes ruptures spontaneously. Install to minimize hazard of falling diced glass.

• This product is shipped in multiple cartons. Ballast/socket housings are shipped one per carton while reﬂector/lens assembles and protective hulls are each shipped one to ﬁve per carton.

• To identify individual NEMA beam spreads the following cross reference chart is provided. “I.D.” labels are located on the top of each reﬂector.

Mounting Instructions (See Figure 2)

This unit is supplied with a 5/8” or 3/4” x 2” bolt, nut, slit washer, and toothed washer for mounting to crossarm style (ﬂat surface) mounting brackets. The bolt is captive but may be replaced with a longer, hex head bolt if required. A 5/8” bolt, S.A.E. 5 minimum or a 3/4” bolt, S.A.E. 2 minimum is require. A tenon adapter (Cat. No. 4024SLS) is available for pole top mounting.

1. Use the aiming plate as a template and mark the center of the small hole on the crossarm (L). Note: Position the forward edge parallel to the crossarm mounting bracket.

2. Drill a .219” dia. hole through the steel crossarm at the location just marked. DO NOT drill through the aiming plate.

3. Using the supplied screw and nut, attach the aiming plate to the large galvanized nail to attach the aiming plate.

4. Remove the nut (AC), slit washer (AB), and toothed washer (AF) from the main ﬁxture mounting bolt (M).

5. Secure the ﬁxture to the crossarm by placing the main ﬁxture mounting bolt through the toothed washer (AF), the horizontal aiming plate (K), and the hole in the crossarm.

6. Replace the slit washer (AB) and nut (AC) on the main ﬁxture mounting bolt and tighten to 150 ft. lbs. IMPORTANT: Parts must be assembled as shown in Figure 2.

Mounting Notes:

• Ensure that the crossarm has adequate strength to support your desire number of ﬁxture.

• SLS5010 mounting brackets are available when obstructions will not allow center ﬁxture mounting on three-ﬁxture brackets.

• DO NOT mount ﬁxtures directly to concrete.

Prior to assembly, use a marker to mark the optical assembly I.D. number on the ballast housing (or cover) for later reference.

1. PROTECTIVE HULL INSTALLATION (If no hull is included in your installation, go to step #3) Place keyhole slots in hull (A) over the mounting screws (B) and rotate the hull in a counter-close wise direction unit it stops.

2. Place the gasket (D) (supplied with the hull) over the mounting screws inside the hull.

3. Place keyhole slots in reﬂector (B) over the mounting screws (E) and rotate the reﬂector in a counter-clockwise direction until it stops.

4. 1000 WATT HIGH PRESSURE SODIUM UNIT ONLY (If ﬁxture is not

retain the bafﬂe.

6. Place lamp support bracket (G) (provided in ballast housing hardware bag) directly under (2) screw heads inside the reﬂector (or bafﬂe if 1000W HPS).

7. Tighten the (6) mounting screws (E). Minimum of 20 Inch lbs.

8. Install lamp.

9. Remove the lens assembly retaining screw (AD) & nut (AE) from the lens ring hinge.

10. Attach the lens assembly to the reﬂector by installing the screw through the clearance holes in the reﬂector bracket and lens ring bracket. Drive

INSTALLATION AND SERVICING INSTRUCTIONS

Wiring Instructions: (See Figures 2 & 3)

WARNING!

Units having two or more voltage taps: Remove the wirenut from the desired voltage lead and connect lead to supply conductor. Replace wirenut on unused voltage lead. Failure to replace wirenut on unused voltage lead will result in high voltage shock hazard.

NOTE: All wiring is to be done in the wiring compartment (H) at the rear of the ballast

housing. Use minimum 90 C. SOWA. cord. (14/3 cord is required for ﬁxture using 1500 watt lamps when ﬁxtures are wired for 120V).

1. Loosen (6) cover screws (I) and set cover aside. Removal of green wire tether is not recommended.

2. Feed supply cord (N) into ballast housing through the wireway hole (O) in the bottom of the wiring compartment (H), through the properly sized rubber seal (P) and the center hole in the retaining plate (Q).

3. The end of the cord’s outer jacket should not extend beyond 1” into the wiring compartment.

4. Tighten the (2) screws (R) to retain the supply cord.

5. Connect supply power leads to ballast primary leads in accordance with local and NEC Codes.

6. Attach ground lead to green ground screw inside wiring compartment and replace cover (J), ensuring that no wires are pinched inside housing.

Up-Aiming Instructions: (See Figure 4A)

For aiming above horizontal, a drain hole knockout is provided on the back of the socket housing. The use of safety glasses is recommended. To open the drain hole, place a ﬂat blade screwdriver directly between the two indicator marks (AA) on the back of the socket housing and strike the handle of the screwdriver sharply with a hammer. Remove any debris from the socket housing (C).

Relamping Instructions:

1. Ensure repositioning stop (X) is set and loosen the socket housing retaining bolt (U).

2. Rotate socket/reﬂector assembly back to gain access to lamp compartment.

3. Release latches and swing lens door assembly open.

2. Loosen main ﬁxture mounting bolt (M) add socket housing retaining bolt (U).

3. Look through the hole at the outermost end of the aiming sight bracket.

4. Align center of hole with the top left edge of lens door retaining latch (V) as shown in Figure 4b.

5. Aim the ﬁxture by aligning the hole and the left edge of the latch with the desired aiming location. See Figure 4c.

6. Tighten the main mounting bolt (M) to 150 ft. lbs. and the socket housing retaining bolt (U) to 35-40 ft. lbs.

7. Rotate the aiming/repositioning stop bracket (X) BACKWARDS until the stop rest ﬁrmly against the tab on the socket housing and tighten the retaining screw (W). (See Figure 1c).

Fast Aim Aiming Instructions:

NOTE: Target aiming is the IES preferred aiming method. Some minor adjustments may be required as with any preset aiming system.

To position the ﬁxture horizontally: (See Figure 2)

1. Loosen main ﬁxture mounting bolt (M).

2. Rotate the ﬁxture to desired position using the horizontal aiming indicator (Y) and the degree markings on the horizontal aiming plate (K).

3. Tighten the main mounting bolt (M) to 150 ft. lbs.

To position the ﬁxture vertically: (See Figure 1c)

4. Loosen the screw (W) holding the vertical aiming/repositioning stop bracket (X).

5. Rotate the bracket to the desired position using arrow indicator (Z) on the ballast housing and degree markings on the bracket.

6. Tighten the bracket retaining screw (W).
