Warnings: 

 

Do not attempt to install the lights whilst the boat is in the water. 

 

Ensure that the correct voltage is used for the light. 

 

Ensure that an in line fuse is installed with the correct fuse rating per the light installed.

Tools required for installation: 

 

101mm(4”) hole saw  

 

Drill 

 

Marine sealant 3M 4200 or equivalent 

Installation: 

For optimum affect effect the light should be positioned between 8-12” (200-300mm) below the 
water line and at a 90 deg angle. Recommended spacing from 3-3”(1mtr) to 5-11” (1.8mtrs) between 
the lights. 
Drill a 101mm (4”) hole for the light access through the hull, ensuring that there are no obstructions 
internally in the hull. 
Key the area to where the light is to be mounted with abrasive sand paper to ensure there is a clean 
area for the marine sealant to bond too. 
Apply marine sealant to the rear of the light on the circumference of the light and around the base of 
the tube to ensure a complete continuous bead of sealant is applied in both areas. (See fig 2) 
Feed the light through the hole and clamp internally in the hull using the clamping ring and washer 
supplied ensuring a tight fit using nuts and bolts supplied. (See fig 3 and 4)
