Extreme care should be taken when handling and operating the Halogen Floodlight

HL5. Please observe the following do’s and don’ts to ensure safe and trouble free use:

DO ensure combustible material is kept away from Floodlight.

DO keep the floodlight out of reach of children when in use.

DO switch off and allow to cool for a minimum of 10 minutes before adjusting the floodlight head.

DO use the Floodlights in horizontal position (+4°). If not used in horizontal position the tube life

will be greatly reduced.

DON’T touch tube with bare hands. This could cause tube to shatter when Floodlight is switched

on.

DON’T stand Floodlight in pools of water.

DON’T handle with wet hands or operate when standing on wet surface.

DON’T position the Floodlight closer than one metre from surface to be illuminated.

DON’T allow power cable to come into contact with front of Floodlight or housing.

DON’T touch the housing or glass while hot.

DON’T allow overhanging shrubs or foliage to come into contact with Floodlight.

DON’T place or operate the Floodlight closer than 5 metres to a swimming pool or spa.

DON’T operate the Floodlight with the front of housing opened.

The tungsten halogen tube is supplied and packed separately inside the housing to avoid damage.

Open the Floodlight housing by loosening the top screw. The glass front of the housing will hinge

forward and down. Ensure that Floodlight is unplugged from wall socket. Insert the tube in the

holder, ensuring that you do not touch the glass envelope of the tube with barehands. Use the

tube wrapper to handle tube. Check that the tube is seated correctly on the holder contacts.

(Oils from the hands can cause the tube to fail or shatter).

If necessary the tube should be carefully cleaned with methylated spirit and dried before

installation. Do not attempt to adjust or force the tube holder with tools, but carefully push the

tube into the holder contacts. Reassemble the Floodlight housing.

INSTALLATION

INSTALLATION OF THIS FITTING MUST BE CARRIED OUT BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.

WARNING

While installing ensure there is minimum 0.5 metres between the luminaire and any wall or

ceiling.

Before attempting any installation or maintenance, ensure that the electrical supply is switched

off and the fuse removed or the circuit breaker is in the“off” position.

Do not mount the HL5 near flammable surfaces, as the lamp body gets extremely hot.

Do not position the HL5 closer than one metre from surface to be illuminated.

Do not touch the fitting whilst it is in operation - the fitting will become very hot.

The maximum rating of this floodlight is 500 Watts.

Step 1:

Fix the mounting bracket to the wall using 2 x screws with flat washers underneath supplied with

the unit.

Feed the supply cable through the rubber seal and the cable gland and into the terminal housing.

Double check wiring connections.

Step 4:

Secure the supply cable by fixing the plastic saddle with two screws inside the terminal housing

and tighten the cable gland to ensure a waterproof seal.

Step 5:

Fit the terminal housing cover with 4 screws supplied with the unit. Ensure the screws are tight.

Form a drip loop in the cable to prevent moisture into the cable gland.
