1.Connect one lead to the negative (-) post of the 12-volt supply. Connect the other lead to a fused and switched positive (+) 12-volt supply. Sidelights require 1-amp fusing per lamp: a 1-amp fuse for the Bicolor Combination light, a 2-amp fuse for the Sidelight Pair. Note that navigation rules require sidelights to be operated separately from anchor lights. Use either two switches or a single switch with three positions for off/anchor/running (See Figure 3).

2.Check gasket to be sure the hole lip is down. Feed wires and connectors down through the gasket (See Figure 4).

3.Be sure base is seated into the gasket ring all the way around (See Figure 4 Detail).

4.Align base so the hole lip fits down into the wire clearance hole. Insert two #10 stainless steel mounting screws and fasten them to the deck. Note: Do not fasten screws so tightly that the gasket is deformed.

5.To replace lens: Be sure O-ring is seated on the base screw mount. Seat lens so the base tabs fit in the lens grooves and base screw mount lines up with the lens screw hole. Be sure the gasket is outside the lens at the back.

MAINTENANCE

To replace lamp: Remove the cover screw, cover, and lens. You may need to pry the lens from the gasket with a small flat screwdriver, starting in the front of the light.

Remove old lamp by rotating 1/8 turn counterclockwise and pulling forward. Replace lamp with the proper bayonet bulb (Attwood Part Number 912717). Check position of O-ring on the base screw mount. Carefully replace lens and cover on gasket to maintain the waterproof seal. Reinstall cover screw.
