NOTE: Switch must be mounted a least 1 1/2” away from
any metal parts.
NOTE: When parallel wire (SPT II) is used, the tracer wire
is square shaped or ridged and the non-tracer wire is
round in shape or smooth (seen best when viewed from
wire end).
1. Split 120v cord as illustrated (FIGURE 3). Cut the
non-tracer (or smooth) wire. Be sure to cut only the
smooth non-tracer wire.
2. Remove the screw from the switch and take the switch
apart.
3. Place the wires in part A (without the wheel) as shown.
Tuck the cut wire down one end on each side of the
barrier.
4. Press both halves of the switch back together. Note that
the points pierce insulation to make contact with copper
inside wire.
5. Place screw back into center hole and secure in place
with nut.
1. Cut off end of 120v cord cleanly and evenly. CAUTION: Do
not separate wires. Do not remove or damage
insulation (Figure 2).
2. Press cord, with ridged side to the right (tracer wire),
down and into front of plug.
3. Press cord down onto metal prongs.
4. Slide plug cover over cord and plug until plug cover is
centered over plug.

WARNING: Be sure the electricity to the wires you are
working on is shut off; either the fuse removed or the circuit
breaker off.
For this transformer to operate the wattage load must be a
minimum of 60w, but must not exceed 150w.

TRANSFORMER INSTALLATION
Select the desired location to mount the transformer (A) (not
in contact with insulation & away from oven or any other
source of intense heat including transformer). Using the two
screws (provided), fasten the transformer and mounting tab to
the mounting surface. Remove the cover plate (C) from the
transformer body. Identify the two terminals for the line volt-
age (120V) and the low voltage (12V) side. This is identified
from both the cover plate (C) and the transformer label (D).

FOR PROPER OPERATION OF AN ELECTRONIC
TRANSFORMER, THE WATTAGE LOAD MUST FALL
WITHIN THE SPECIFIED RANGE. IF THE LOAD DOES NOT
FALL WITHIN THIS RANGE, THE TRANSFORMER MAY
MALFUNCTION OR LAMPS MIGHT FLICKER.
