Photocontrol
Lens/Reflector
Assembly
To test operation during daylight, cover the photocontrol with a small box. Turn on the power. Not all photocontrols are alike. Some may
have a time delay of a few minutes, others will turn on as soon as power is applied. The light will take up to ten minutes to reach full
brightness. Uncover the photocontrol and your unit will operate automatically—on at dusk, off at dawn.

Installation Instructions
Ground Screw
Cover Plate
Fixture Wires
Thru This Hole
ONE YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY
CAUTION: Make sure the power is off before starting the
installation.
1. Select a location on a flat wall with structurally sound wood
and from 10 to 25 feet (3 to 7.6 m) from the ground. The wood
should be at least one inch thick to safely secure the fixture.
2. Using the mounting template as a guide, mark the 3 mounting holes.
We suggest drilling 3/16" (4.8 mm) pilot holes for the lag screws.
3. Install the two bottom lag screws first. Screw in the lag screws
so that there is about 3/8" (9.5 mm) of space under the head.
4. Place the fixture on these two screws and install the top lag
screw. Tighten the top lag screw first, then tighten the remain-
ing lag screws.
5. Secure your outdoor cable or flexible conduit to the cover plate
with a fitting in accordance with the National Electrical Code.
6. Thread the black and white fixture wires through the hole in
the cover plate as shown.
7. Connect the fixture wires to the service wires (black to black
and white to white).
8. This fixture must be connected to ground. Secure the service
ground wire under the head of the green ground screw.
9. Install the cover plate. Secure with the two screws and nuts
provided.
10. Install the reflector/lens assembly. Secure with the two screws
and washers provided.
11. Screw in the 175 watt mercury vapor type H39 lamp provided.
12. Loosen the screw in the center of the photocontrol socket two
turns. Twist the socket so that the arrow points north. Note:
There is a stop to prevent the socket from turning all the way
around. If you have trouble turning the socket, try turning it the
other direction. Retighten the screw in the center of the socket.
13. Align the photocontrol with the socket (it will only plug-in
one way). Plug it in and twist clockwise until it stops. If
photocontrol is already installed, turn clockwise to ensure that
it is locked in place.
