The GL-4600 is a 1-Speed Searchlight with
Directional Flexibility which gives the operator a full
360° horizontal rotation and a 180° vertical tilt with
fingertip control. The GL-4600 provides superior light
penetration with the new LED/PVEX lens technology.

MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
Light Unit/Permanent Mount
Determine the location for the light on your vehicle or
boat. Remove the mounting plate from the light.
Center the mounting plate. Mark the hole locations
for the four mounting screws and drill a pilot hole for
each with 1/8 inch bit. Fasten the stainless steel
mounting plate with the 3 #10
– 16x3/4 type AB
cross recessed pan head tapping screws. Drill a 1
1/
4” hole in the center of the mounting plate opening
to accommodate the wiring harness and connector.
Attach the connector that is affixed to the underside
of the light to the corresponding connector on the
wiring harness. Position the connection point
beneath the mounting surface, and apply silicone
sealant around wire to seal the drilled opening. Place
the light over the mounting plate. Install the set
screws (provided) and tighten.
Light Unit/Magnetic Mount
Select the best location on your vehicle for the
magnetic mount spotlight. Make sure the metal area
under the magnetic base is flat and clean to ensure a
strong bond. Route the power cord into the vehicle
through a door frame and connect to power outlet.
The magnetic mount GL-4600-M should be removed
from vehicle’s exterior while traveling at excessive
speeds and in strong wind conditions.
Dash Control/Permanent Mount
Determine the appropriate location for the dash
mount
control
and
create
an
opening
to
accommodate the board on the rear of the remote.
Affix the control to the dash with four screws. The
words should be facing upright and should be
situated accordingly. All wiring should be undertaken
with power removed from the system. First, attach
the connector that is affixed to the control to the
corresponding connector on the wiring harness.
Next, join the leads at the remote to output side of
inline transformer. Apply 12V DC power with
appropriate automotive wire attachments to the input
side of inline transformer;
NOTE:
The included inline
transformer takes 12V DC from your power source
and steps it up to 24V DC in order to power the
searchlight.
The wire with (+) is the positive lead and
the opposite black wire is the negative lead--the unit
is polarity sensitive and care must be taken to
observe this. As a safety feature, the power switch is
backlit to indicate bulb illumination.
Each spotlight
needs to be wired on a single dedicated circuit and
the power fused at 5 amps. With the power
connected, your light is
ready for operation.
