SECTION I. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS When installing and using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following. 1. This light can be installed on storable above ground or permanent above ground pools. 2. A storable pool has a maximum water depth of 42 inches and is so constructed that it may be readily disassembled for storage and re-assembled to its original integrity. 3. A permanent pool has a maximum water depth over 42 inches. Do not

NOTE Retain the gaskets supplied and keep them accessible. P U 3. Use the Teflon™ tape provided. Snugly wrap the threaded wall S H flange in a clockwise direction (as viewed from the back) starting at the edge of the threads; see Figure 2. Work towards the flange lip (overlapping 1/2 of the tape width with each wrap) then back towards the starting point. Bulb Retainer • If you have a new pool, move on to step 10. Figure 1.

16. Now, from inside the pool, push the bulb assembly and flow director with the red cap/plug in place into the fitting body until the bulb assembly/flow director are nearly flush against the inside pool wall. 17. Thread the bulb assembly nut until it just touches the fitting body, then finger tighten. CAUTION Do not over tighten as adjustability of the flow director may be impaired and/or damage to parts causing leakage may occur. If the flow director does not rotate by hand, the nut is too tig

¿¿¿WHAT IS A GFCI??? A ‘Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter’ is an electrical safety device designed to measure electrical leakage in a circuit. It is far more sensitive than a standard circuit breaker. GFCI equipped breakers and outlet combinations react to unsafe leakage and shut the power off before electrical shock injury can occur. Any electrical device used within 10 feet of a pool must be protected by a GFCI equipped outlet or a GFCI equipped circuit breaker and be intended for such use. SEC

11. Place the junction box cover on the junction box bottom so that the junction box can more easily snap into the transformer box; see Figure 15. Snap the pieces together, then remove junction box cover. 12. Mount the transformer box on a pool support approximately 18 inches above the ground, in a position accessible to electrical connection; see Figure 16. To mount the transformer junction box, insert one of the screws provided, to a pool support. NOTE Do not install the transformer directly o

SECTION V. RELAMPING INSTRUCTIONS WARNING Risk of electric shock. Disconnect power before servicing this unit. Failure to disconnect power can result in death or severe personal injury. 1. It is desirable to reduce the water level to the lower edge of the flow director. This makes bulb assembly replacement easier, but it is not mandatory. 2. Remove power from the unit by taking the power cord’s 3-prong plug and disconnecting it from its electrical outlet, or in the case of a hard-wired applicati

8. Thread the bulb assembly nut until it just touches the fitting body, then finger tighten. CAUTION Do not over tighten as adjustability of flow director may be impaired and/or damage to parts causing leakage may occur. If low director does not rotate by hand, nut is too tight. 9. Take the red cap/plug off and gently bring the wire connectors through the back side of the bulb assembly. Save red cap/plug for storage and winterizing. 10. Connect the wire connectors from the bulb assembly to the w

7. Remove the bulb assembly by pulling on the flow director while pushing the bulb assembly from the outside of the pool. NOTE The fitting body, threaded wall flange and gaskets may remain attached to the pool wall when winterizing, but should be removed if pool is to be stored. 8. For storable pools: remove the transformer from its mounting by lifting up and out. For permanent pools: cover the cord cap on the end of the flexible cord with a plastic bag and seal with a twist tie or rubber band.
