INSTALLATION

1.Your Bugwacker should be hung or post mounted from a pole, bracket or post mounted from a pole, bracket or post (available as accessories)at a height of 6 to 8 feet above the ground. This is the flying

altitude for many types of light-sensitive insects and will increase the unit's effectiveness.

2.Plug electrical cord into a three-wire grounded out- door extension cord. Lamp will emit a soft bluish glow.

Note: A momentary arc may occur across the high

voltage grids when first plugged in. This-is due to the surge of electricity. It will stop and resume normal operation.

The electrical rating of the extension cord must be as great as the electrical rating of your Bugwacker.

Use only three-wire extension cords which have three- prong grounding type plugs and three-pole receptacles which accept the products plug.

Appropriate extension cords and devices for retaining an extension cord connection to the Bugwacker power cord are available at your local Sears store. Replace or repair damaged cords.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

Your Bugwacker is equipped with an appropriate three- conductor cord and three-prong grounding type plug to fit the proper grounding type receptacle. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded

Your Bugwacker has a grounding plug that looks like the plug shown below and is intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet as shown below.

Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt as to whether proper grounding exists.

OPERATION

attract

light-sensitive

flying insects with black

light,

and to kill them cleanly without the use of poisons,

fogs, sprays or

chemicals.

 

 

Insects

are drawn to the fluorescent

bulb, and

killed

3.Refer to Illustration B. Placement of the unit is essential to its maximum effectiveness. Since the

Bugwacker is a luring device, it should not be located in the area in- tended for human activity. It should be placed 25 to 50 feet away, and between the source of insects (i.e. woods, lowlands, etc.) arid the areas to be protected.

moisture in their bodies is enough to

trigger the arc, so that even the tiniest of bugs are

eliminated.

mosquitoes, gnats, moths, etc., respond to the black

light rays emitted by the Bugwacker'sultra-violet

ILLUSTRATION B

If additional light is required in the area of human

activity, it should be provided by yellow light. Studies have shown that insects are less attractive

to yellow light.
