4. Setup and Assembly
Follow these steps to assemble your Barrina T1S Standing Grow Light:
- Attach the Disc Base: Securely screw the disc base onto the bottom of the main light pole. Ensure it is tightened to provide stability.
- Connect Extension Rods: The light comes with two extension rods. These rods can be used individually to adjust the height of the light. They are designed to be inserted into the main light pole to achieve the desired height between 5FT and 5.6FT.
- Positioning: Place the assembled grow light in your desired location, ensuring the base is on a flat, stable surface.

5. Operating Instructions
Mechanical Timer
The included mechanical timer allows you to automate the light's on/off cycles. It retains settings even after a power outage, eliminating the need for frequent resets.
- Clear Previous Settings: Lift all pins on the timer dial to clear any prior settings.
- Set ON/OFF Times: Push down the pins corresponding to the time range you want the light to be ON. For example, to turn on at 7:00 AM and off at 6:00 PM, push down all pins between 7 and 18 (6 PM on a 24-hour clock).
- Set Current Time: Rotate the dial clockwise until the arrow points to the current time.
- Activate Timer Mode: Use the switch on the side of the timer to toggle it to the 'Clock' mode.
- Plug In: Plug the timer into a 3-prong socket, then plug the grow light into the timer. The timer will now operate according to your settings.
