LUMINAIRE MOUNTING:
NOTE:
Your Vista 12 volt Bollard is provided with a ground
stake to facilitate an in-grade installation. However, for a
permanent and secure installation a concrete footing
support for the bollard post is recommended.
1. To prevent electrical shock, disconnect transformer from
electrical supply before installation or service.
2. Dig a hole approximately 3” diameter by 2” deep at
selected location.
3. Using the
1⁄2
” threaded nipple (provided), attach ground
stake to center hole in bollard base and run wire pigtail
down through hole. Insert stake with base into the ground
until bottom of base is even with grade.
4. Strip the two (2) leads from the luminaire pigtail. Using the
two (2) silicone filled safety connectors (provided),
connect the leads from the luminaire to the main supply
cable leads.
NOTE:
Luminaires are supplied with 36” of 18-2 cable pigtail
for secure connection to the main supply cable. The
wire is to be protected by routing in close proximity to the
luminaire. The wiring should be buried a maximum depth
of 6 inches (15.2 cm) in order to connect to the main
supply cable.
5. Provide power to the luminaire and check for proper
operation.
