4. Setup & Installation

Follow these steps for proper installation of your landscape lighting kit. Ensure power is disconnected before handling any electrical components.

4.1 Plan Your Layout

4.2 Mount the Transformer

Mount the 60W transformer in a suitable outdoor location, ensuring it is protected from direct heavy rain and easily accessible. Use the provided metal brackets to securely hang the transformer on a wall or post.

4.3 Lay the Landscape Wire

Unroll the 65ft UL-listed landscape wire and lay it along your planned path. The wire can be buried directly in the ground (SPT-2 insulation protects from corrosion) or concealed under mulch or rocks.

4.4 Connect the Spotlights

At each desired spotlight location, use the provided Fastlock2 wire connectors to tap into the main landscape wire. Ensure a secure connection to prevent power issues.

  1. Insert the main landscape wire into the connector's designated slot.
  2. Insert the spotlight's wire into the other slot.
  3. Tighten the caps on the connector firmly until the internal spikes pierce the wire insulation and establish contact.

After connecting, push the spotlight's ground stake into the soil at the desired angle. The spotlight head is 270° adjustable for precise lighting direction.
