- Electrical Connection:
- The fixture comes with a 3-foot watertight STW 16 gauge cord exiting the housing via an IP66 liquid-tight connector.
- Connect the fixture's power cord to your main power supply wiring. This connection must be made by a qualified electrician and comply with all local and national electrical codes.
- Ensure all wire connections are properly insulated and protected from moisture.
- Aiming Adjustment: Loosen the bolt on the yoke mount, adjust the flood light to the desired aiming angle, and then securely tighten the bolt to lock the position.
- Restore Power: Once installation is complete and all connections are secure, restore power at the circuit breaker.
