Wiring and Connection

Always use a waterproof junction box or inline connector to connect the fitting to the mains power supply.

1. Decide on the positioning of the spike light.
2. Locate the mains electrical supply (pre-installed armoured cable).
3. Connect the fitting to the mains supply via a waterproof junction box or inline connector.
4. Ensure all terminals of the connector block are secure with no stray wires and that the connection is watertight.
5. The cable supplied is not armoured; it must be laid inside armoured conduit or piping if buried to protect from water-logging and damage. If buried, it should be at least 0.5m below ground.

Adjusting the Spotlight Head

The head can be adjusted and set at various angles via the U-bracket.

1. Support the head and loosen the 2 socket screws on each side of the U-bracket using the provided socket wrench (turn anti-clockwise, 1/2 turn is sufficient).
2. Angle the head to the desired position.
3. Tighten the screws to secure the head in place.

Spike Mounting

1. Tilt the spotlight head to create room between the head and bracket.
2. Remove the socket screw and washer from the ground spike using the socket wrench.
3. Place the spike underneath the U-bracket, lining up with the predrilled holes.
4. Secure the spike to the bracket with the socket screw and washer.
5. Dampen the ground in the installation area.
6. Carefully push the spike into the ground via the U-bracket base. Do not put pressure on the spotlight head.
7. Compact the earth around the spike to ensure it is firm.

Surface Mounting

1. Tilt or remove the spotlight head to create room.
2. Hold the bracket in position and mark the mounting location.
3. Attach the bracket to the surface using appropriate screws/washers for the material (not supplied).
4. Reattach the head if it was removed and adjust to the desired angle.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Occasional cleaning is recommended. If condensation occurs due to temperature differences, turn off the power supply on a dry day, remove the head, and wipe dry with a soft cloth. Always allow the unit to cool before maintenance.
