2. To remove light assembly, remove the special pilot screw at top of face ring, remove light assembly from niche, and
place assembly on deck.
WARNING
Be sure to keep the special pilot screw from this underwater light. This screw mounts and electrically grounds the
housing securely to the mounting ring and wet niche. Failure to use the screw provided could create an electrical hazard
which could result in death or serious injury to pool users, installers or others due to electrical shock.
3. Remove Junction Box cover, disconnect the light fixture wires, and pull the cord through the conduit.
4. Feed the new light fixture cord through the conduit from the niche to the Junction Box.
NOTE
Depending on the length of the conduit, special tools may be required to pull the cord through the conduit.
5. Leave at least 4 feet of cord to coil around the light fixture; see Figure 1. This 4 feet of cord coiled around the light
allows the light to be serviced after the pool is filled with water.
6. Cut the cord at the Junction Box, leaving at least 6 inches of cord to make connections.
7. Strip 6 inches of the outer cord jacket from the cord to expose the three insulated wires – be careful not to damage
the insulation on the three inner wires.

common, and green wire to ground) and secure the Junction Box cover in place.
WARNING
Never operate this underwater light for more than 10 seconds unless it is totally submerged in water. Without total
submersion, the light assembly will get extremely hot, which may result in serious burns or in breakage of the lamp or
lens. This may result in serious injury to pool users, installers, or bystanders, or in damage to property.
9. Replace light assembly into the niche and tighten the special pilot screw.
WARNING
Use only the special pilot screw provided with this underwater light. This screw mounts and electrically grounds the
housing securely to the mounting ring and wet niche. Failure to use the screw provided could create an electrical hazard
which could result in death or serious injury to pool users, installers or others due to electrical shock.
10. Fill the pool until the underwater light is completely submerged in water before operating the light for more than 10
seconds. Turn on main switch or circuit breaker, as well as the switch which operates the underwater light itself, to
check for proper operation.
