WARNING
THIS IS NOT A TOY. Do not hang on top rail adapter assembly or twist excessively as damage to assembly
may occur. Sharp glass or plastic pieces from damaged light adapter cup can create a hazard which could result
in serious injury to pool users, and may also cause property damage. Do not pull or hang onto perimeter cable.
Loose cable can cause a choking or entrapment hazard which could result in death or serious injury to pool users.
I. BEFORE YOU BEGIN
This product is designed for use with the AquaLuminator/
Quasar above-ground light only. Your FiberLuminator fiber
optic system may require the purchase of a FiberLuminatorready AquaLuminator/Quasar (P/N 98605200) or an upgrade
of the AquaLuminator/Quasar bulb body (P/N 69100000).
The FiberLuminator will not provide the proper light output
without the upgraded bulb body. You can identify a “Fiber
Optic ready” bulb body by examining the lens detail; see
Figure 1. The FiberLuminator RND Track Kit is also required
(P/N 840182).
II. INSTALLATION
A. Install above-ground light or bulb body upgrade per
instructions provided with above-ground light.
B. For ease of installation, drain pool until water level is just above
the bottom of the skimmer port.
C. Clean the fiber optic cable (front side) with rubbing (isopropyl)
alcohol.
The Fiber Optic Ready lens
is completely transparent.
The Standard lens
is “Dimpled”.

D. Installing the top rail adapter.
1. Select the location for the top rail adapter. Place the
top rail adapter to either side of the vertical center
line of the light, allowing the adapter lens to be easily
positioned directly in front of the center of the
above-ground light lens; see Figure 3.
2. Lay the cable out around the edge of the pool with
the adapter assembly close to the proper position.
3. Place the piece of double-sided foam tape on the
inside face of the front wall of the top rail adapter.
4. Place top rail adapter onto the top rail and lock into
place with retaining wedges, as shown in Figure 4.
The front of the adapter should be flush with the top
rail and far enough up onto the rail to be firmly
secure.
E. Installing the cable.
1. Install the FiberLuminator RND Track Kit
(P/N 840182).
Figure 3.
NOTE
When installing the FiberLuminator Track Kit, be sure the
thickness of the pool wall and overlapping liner is no more than
0.1 in. thick.
2. Starting from either side of the top rail adaptor, snap
the RND cable into the RND track. See Figure 2.
3. When approaching the ledge cover, you may reach
the end of the track. Simply continue the cable to the
next section of the track.
4. Continue this process until you are half way around
the pool, then repeat the process on the other side
until the cables mate on the opposite side of the
pool.
