AV-70-RF Solar Aviation Light
with Radio Control
Installing the Light Assembly to the Frangible Stake Mount
The completed AV-70-RF mount plate assembly is to be mounted on the Stake (Fig 3) in firm soil (not
loose sand, screenings or other unbound material).
a. Fit the AV-70-RF light on the top of the mounting plate. Insert bolts through the four holes in
the mount, entering from the bottom. Install a penny washer and a Nylock nut on each bolt and
tighten.
b. Fit the boss of the mount plate into the shorter barrel of the frangible sleeve. Using a 6mm Allen
key, tighten the socket head cap screw against the stake mount boss.
c. Use a sledge hammer to drive the stake into the soil at the chosen location. Drive the stake down
until the bottom of the stake sleeve is at ground level.
During Installation every effort should be made to ensure that the light is level when installation is
complete. When installing a stake mount into the ground ensure that the stake is installed straight
into the ground and not on an angle. Ensure that the mounting plate is level using a spirit level.
d. Fit the AV-70-RF mount plate assembly on top of the stake. The longer barrel of the Frangible
Sleeve should completely cover the stake sleeve. Using a 6mm Allen key, tighten the bottom
socket head cap screw against the stake sleeve.
1. Before activating the lights, the lights must be layed out on the runway in the
location they will be installed.
2. RF lights should always be installed on mounting plates and stakes. Avlite does
not recommend installation on rubber tiles.
