Safety Information for Installation or Service

•To properly install or service this equipment, you must have a good understanding of automotive mechanical and

electrical procedures and systems, along with proficiency in the installation and service of safety warning equipment.

Always refer to the vehicle’s service manuals when performing equipment installations on a vehicle.

•To be an effective warning device, this product produces bright light that can be hazardous to your eyesight when

viewed at a close range. Do not stare directly into this lighting product at a close range, or permanent damage to

your eyesight may occur.

•Do not install the light system in an area that would block, impair, or blind the driver’s vision. Ensure that the light

system is mounted in a position that is outside the driver’s field of vision so the driver can safely operate the vehicle.

•A light system is a high current system. For the system to function properly, a separate negative (–) connection and

positive (+) connection must be made. All negative connections should be connected to the negative battery

terminal, and a suitable fuse should be installed on the positive battery terminal connection as close to the battery as

possible. Ensure that all wires and fuses are rated correctly to handle the device and system amperage

requirements.

•Never attempt to install aftermarket equipment that connects to the vehicle wiring without reviewing a vehicle wiring

diagram available from the vehicle manufacturer. Ensure that your installation will not affect vehicle operation or

mandated safety functions or circuits. Always check the vehicle for proper operation after installation.

•The lighting system components, especially the outer housing, get hot during operation. Be sure to disconnect power

to the system and allow the system to cool down before handling any components of the system.

•Do not mount a radio antenna within 18 inches (45.7 cm) of the lighting system. Placing the antenna too close to

the lighting system could cause the lighting system to malfunction or be damaged by strong radio fields. Mounting

the antenna too close to the lighting system may also cause the radio noise emitted from the lighting system to

interfere with the reception of the radio transmitter and reduce radio reception.

•Do not attempt to wash any unsealed electrical device while it is connected to its power source.

•DO NOT connect this system to the vehicle battery until ALL other electrical connections are made, mounting of

all components is complete, and you have verified that no shorts exist. If the wiring is shorted to the vehicle body or

frame, high current conductors can cause hazardous sparks, resulting in electrical fires or flying molten metal.

•DO NOT install equipment or route wiring (or the plug-in cord) in the deployment path of an airbag.

•Before drilling into a vehicle structure, ensure that both sides of the surface are clear of anything that could be

damaged. Remove all burrs from drilled holes. To prevent electrical shorts, grommet all drilled holes through which

wiring passes. Also, ensure that the mounting screws do not cause electrical or mechanical damage to the vehicle.

Installation

Attaching the Mounting Flange

The mounting flange shipped with the unit is removable. You can either leave it attached the search light before

installation or attach the flange to the vehicle first. If desired, permanently lock the flange to the base using the three #8

screws provided. See Figure 1.

Figure 1: Search light mounted on flange

DO NOT DRIVE WITHOUT FIRST MOUNTING THE SEARCH LIGHT TO

THE FLANGE: Because vehicle roof construction and driving

conditions vary, do not drive a vehicle if the search light is not

attached to the flange. The light could fly off the vehicle, causing

injury or damage. Repair of damage incurred because of ignoring this

warning shall be the sole responsibility of the user.

To attach the mounting flange:

1. Locate the detent on the search light and one of the two detent

notches on the flange.

2. Align the search light as shown in Figure 1.

3. Push the search light down completely and turn clockwise 1/8 turn

until the detent locks in place.

To remove the search light from the flange:

1. Use a flat-tipped screwdriver to push the detent while turning the

search light counterclockwise.

2. Pull up when the detent is free of the notch.

Figure 2: Permanently locking the flange

If desired, permanently lock the flange to the base using the

three #8 screws provided. See Figure 2.

Wiring

REVERSE POLARITY/MISWIRING: To avoid damage to

the light, ensure that the input voltage is the same as the

voltage rating of the light. Ensure that correct polarity is

observed. Also ensure that the unit is properly fused

with a 5 A fuse.

To wire the search light:

1. Determine the required length of wires needed. The

search light is supplied with 6-Inch 20 AWG wires that

can be connected to longer wires if needed. For lengths

up to 15 feet (5 m), use a minimum 18 AWG (1 mm)

wire. For lengths over 15 feet, use a minimum 16 AWG

(1.5 mm) wire.

2. Install a 5 A fuse and fuse holder to the positive (+)

terminal at the voltage source. Connect one side of the

power switch to this fuse. Connect the light’s red wire to

the switched terminal of the switch.

3. Connect the black (–) wire from the search light to a

known good vehicle ground as close to the unit as is

practical.

DRILLING PRECAUTIONS: When drilling holes, check the area you are drilling into to ensure that you do not

damage vehicle components while drilling. All drilled holes should be deburred, and all sharp edges should be

smoothed. All wire routings going through drilled holes should be protected by a grommet or convolute/split

loom tubing.

To permanently mount the search light:

1. Scribe the locations of the three mounting holes on the mounting surface using the desired mounting holes in the

flange or base as a guide. There are two sets of evenly spaced holes 120° apart on the bottom of the search light

itself. Holes for the #8 self-tapping screws are on a 2.75-inch diameter (where the lines intersect the inner circle in

Figure 3). The holes for the #10 self-tapping screws are on a 4-inch diameter (where the lines intersect the middle

circle in Figure 3). The 4-inch pattern is the preferred pattern for permanent mounting. If one of the optional

mounting flanges is to be used, three #10 screws are on a 6.00-inch circle (where the lines intersect the outer circle

in Figure 3).

2. Drill three 0.177-inch diameter holes for the #8 screws, or three 0.201-inch diameter holes for the #10 screws.

3. Scribe a hole for the wires or an installer-supplied bushing at the center of the screw pattern.

4. Drill a suitably sized hole at the scribed position for the bushing and wire routing hole. Otherwise, route the wires

through the drain notch in the optional mounting flange. Leave open space for water to drain.

5. Align the search light over the drilled holes. Route the wires through the wire routing hole. Seal the hole with a

bushing or RTV if entering a watertight compartment.

6. Secure the base to the mounting surface with the selected panhead screws.

Figure 3: Drilling (Not to scale)

Cigarette Plug models:

Some models will include a cigarette plug with integral fuse and power switch. The switch may be used to remove power

from the light. If direct connection to the power source (not using the cigar lighter plug) is desired, a user-supplied inline

fuse holder and five-amp fuse must be installed in the power cord’s ribbed (positive) lead.

For 24V models:

24V models will have a small transformer included, that must be installed inline between the light and power source, to

allow the light to be hooked up to 24V power supply. Rather than wiring the light to the power source, simply wire the

input side of the transformer to the power source instead, then wire the light to the output side of the transformer.

2. The memory is now set, and the unit can be moved to this position by short pressing the Memory button.

Magnetic Mounting

DO NOT DRIVE WITH MAGNETICALLY-MOUNTED SEARCH LIGHT INSTALLED:

Because vehicle roof construction and driving conditions vary, do not drive a

vehicle with a magnetically-mounted search light installed. The search light could

fly off the vehicle, causing injury or damage. Repair of damage incurred because

of ignoring this warning shall be the sole responsibility of the user.

The holding power of magnetic mounting systems depends on the surface finish, surface flatness, and thickness of the

steel mounting surface. Therefore, to promote proper magnetic mounting:

•Keep the mounting surface and magnets clean, dry, and free of foreign particles that prevent good surface contact.

•Ensure that the mounting surface is flat.

•Do not use a magnetic mounting system on vehicles with vinyl tops.

•To prevent the sliding of the search light on the mounting surface, avoid quick acceleration and hard stops.

Magnetic mounting provides a secure, temporary mounting method for most installations. However, it is not intended for

use on the exterior of a moving vehicle.

To temporarily mount the search light to a vehicle with magnetic mounting:

1. Place the light assembly on a level, steel surface. Ensure that the light is placed to promote maximum coverage and

range of the search light.

2. Insert the plug at the end of the cable assembly into the 12-volt power outlet socket.

3. Turn the power on and off using the power switch on the plug. To show that the power is on, a pilot light turns on.

4. Use the remote to operate the light.

NOTE: The lighter plug has an integral fuse and power switch. The switch may be used to remove power from the light. If

direct connection to the power source (not using the cigar lighter plug) is desired, a user-supplied inline fuse holder and

five-amp fuse must be installed in the power cord’s ribbed (positive) lead.

Cleaning

CRAZING/CRACKING Crazing (fine cracks) of lenses causes reduced effectiveness of the light. Do not use

cleaning agents (which causes crazing) such as strong detergents, solvents, or petroleum products. If crazing

of the lens es does occur, the reliability of light for emergency signaling purposes may be reduced until the

lenses are replaced.

CLEANING the POLYCARBONATE LENSES: To extend the life of this device, periodic cleaning is necessary.

Clean the lens with a mild, non-abrasive, neutral-pH cleaning agent and a soft, clean cloth. Rinse the device

thoroughly to ensure that no cleaning agent residue remains. To avoid water spots, dry the device with a soft

clean cloth. Failure to follow this precaution can cause crazing or cracking of the lens/dome and voids the

warranty claims for the light.
