EQUIPMENT LIMITATIONS:

An approved lighting system consists of three lights, one
located on the tail and one located on each wingtip. The
baseplate must be mounted parallel to the vertical and
horizontal centerlines of the aircraft to project the patterns
properly. The light assembly must be connected to flasher
assembly, model 7123403.

The ground recognition light is a non-TSO function.

Certain types of installations may require additional testing.

CONTINUED AIRWORTHINESS:

The tail position light is designed with 4 LEDs. The anti-collision
light is designed with 28 LEDs. The ground recognition light is
designed with 4 LEDs. If any one LED fails, the unit must be
repaired or replaced. Note: To reduce eye strain, use an optical
filter (such as dark glasses or blue covering dome) during LED
inspection.

Inspect the lens. Replace if there is excessive scratching,
pitting, discoloration or cracking.

Note: The anti-collision light will automatically shut-off after 9­10 flashes if a failure is detected.

INSTALLATION PROCEDURES:

1. Using the mounting detail information on page 2, prepare
the aircraft for means to secure the LED light assembly.
Remove any existing mounting adapters.

2. Connect the light inputs according to the chart shown.
Connections to be in accordance with FAA approved
methods.

3. Remove 4 (2-56) screws to remove retainers. Carefully
remove lens. Remove 3 (4-40) screws to remove mounting
plate. CAUTION! Do not touch the LED lens surface with
either fingers or sharp objects. This could soil and/or

oriented as shown on Page 2.

5. Reinstall lens, confirm proper gasket fit and secure
using retainers and screws.

6. When necessary, waterproof the lightbase to aircraft.
Apply single-part Silicone (RTV) or equivalent around
any open area where water could get in. Do not cover
the drain holes.

7. Check all avionics systems for interference from this
installation.

8. A flight check should be performed by a properly
certified pilot.
