not only protect from UV but also color-correct to more easily view your plants under our lights.

CORRECT!
Hanging Your Light:
We recommend tying a stopper knot at the loose end of the rope to prevent
over-extension of each of the ratcheng rope hangers. See gure A
DO NOT aempt to hang a PhytoMAX-2 light alone! At least 2 people are recommended.
See this URL for more informaon:
Ensure that the structure you'll be hanging the light from can support its weight plus some
extra for cords, etc. - The PhytoMAX-2 800 and 1000 hanging points need to support over
25 kilograms (50 pounds)!
1. Insert a metal hanger clip into the hanging bracket on either side of the back of the light.
Ensure that both ends of the clip are secure.
2. Clip one end of each of the ratcheng rope hangers to the ceiling, and the other end to
the metal hanger clips aached to the light. The ropes should be hanging straight, not
pulling the hanging brackets toward or away from the center of the light. See gures B & C
3. Adjust the ratchet to hang the light at the recommended height as outlined in the table on
the next page.
4. Ensure there is always a minimum 6"/15cm of clearance on both sides of the light that
have vents. Failure to provide adequate clearance can cause the light to overheat. The
sides without vents and the top of the light do not require any clearance. See Figure D

Recommendations for Proper Use
Imperial
Metric
* Average PPFD measurements are over the enre footprint, edge-to-edge and corner-to-corner, based on reflective
surroundings or adjacent lights.
** When growing in an area smaller than the medium recommended ower footprint, CO2 supplementation is generally
required to make full use of the addional light.
The above footprint calculaons were created for photoperiod-sensive plants in a square area
PhytoMAX-2 Growing Tips:
We recommend keeping your growing area 9-10 °F / 5 °C (85 °F / 29 °C) warmer than you would
with other lights to maximize yield.
If not growing hydroponically, we recommend using fabric pots with our lights; they allow soil to
dry out more quickly since our lights aren't heating it as much. This allows faster nutrient cycling
and encourages a better root system.

Issues And Questions:
Black Dog LED wants you to be satisfied with your PhytoMAX-2 light!
Please note that our lights contain infrared and ultraviolet diodes that are outside of humans'
visual range, so it is normal for some of the LEDs to appear dim or unlit.
If you have any issues with your light's function, please contact Black Dog LED, not the store
it was purchased from. Contact us at: [e-mail]
Cleaning and Maintenance:
If your light requires cleaning:
1. Spray water or a mild glass cleaner onto a soft lint-free towel!
2. Gently blot the LEDs with the moist towel until clean. DO NOT RUB THE LEDs!
3. Allow to air-dry, then plug your light back in and turn it on!
4. NEVER spray any liquids directly on or around the LEDs!
