Installation
When installing the solar module, make sure it faces south and does not get
covered or shaded by objects such as trees or buildings. Select a location
with good sunlight conditions in order for the solar module to charge the
rechargeable batteries during daylight. During winter the solar module must
be kept free from snow at all times.
The installation distances between the spotlights and the solar module are
limited due to the cables. When preparing a fixed installation, make sure
your mounting arrangement is within the maximum mounting distances.
When drilling installation holes into the wall or when tightening screws,
make sure not to damage any existing cables or pipes!
a) Overview
• The spotlights and the solar module are equipped with ball joints. The ball joints
allow for the product to be aligned to any direction easily.
• The screw connection of the ball joint supports the attachment of a mounting foot
(fig. 2) or ground spike (fig. 1). Turn the screw connection counter clockwise to
loosen or clockwise to tighten. Use only little force when tightening in order not to
jam the thread.
• The solar module can be fitted with the pole mount (fig. 3) in order to attach the
module to, for example, a pole, railing, table, etc.
b) Ground spike
• Loosen the ball joint screw connection and attach the ground spike.
• Select a suitable location with a soft surface. A stony surface will damage the
ground spikes.
• Push the spotlight/solar module including the ground spike as far as it goes into the
surface (fig. 1). Make sure the installation is stable.
c) Installation on a flat surface or wall
• Loosen the ball joint connection and attach the mounting foot.
• The mounting foot can be secured using the two bore holes in the foot. Drill
respective holes into the surface/wall and insert the dowels.
• Use two screws to attach the mounting foot (fig. 2, fig. 4).
• Besides screw-type mounting there is the possibility to use the double-sided
adhesive slips for installation. The adhesive slips can be attached to the mounting
feet/mounting surface directly.
Caution! Adhesive slips leave trace or damage surfaces. It is not suggested
to use adhesive slips on sensitive surfaces.
