Assembly
BRASCO INTERNATIONAL, INC.
Your SolStop™ comes mostly assembled and is pre-wired for easy installation. See attached assembly drawings and follow the below steps for removing the top tray from the light housing and making the necessary
connections. The SolStop™ should operate the first night, however it may require a full day of peak sun and a week of “learning” to fully program the system for optimal performance.
Be careful to protect the assembly when you are handling it.
1. Remove six (6) #10 x ¾” SS Pan Head Torx Tamper-resistant screws.
2. Gently remove the top assembly (solar panel tray) and lay it next to the light housing. Keep in mind that the two components are attached by wires. (Figure 1.)
3. You will find two (2) 10AMP fuses in a bag taped to the top assembly –remove the fuses from the bag. (Figure 1A.)
4. Install the fuse into the holder attached to the battery. (Figure 1A.).
5. Install the fuse into the holder attached to the solar panel. (Figure 1A.) Make sure they are pressed in tightly. WARNING: If exposed to sunlight, solar panel is an active power source.
6. Press the test button on the controller and then press the Pole-Mounted push button. (Figure 1,2.)
7. The SolStop™ light will activate and remain on for 5 minutes. (Figure 1.)
8. If there is sufficient daylight, the green light on the controller will light up, indicating the panel is providing a charge to the battery. (Figure 1.)
9. Reset and attach the top assembly onto the light housing using the same screws. (Figure 2.)
10. Mount upper unit onto base pole stub –refer to drawing for attachment detail. (Figure 3.)
11. The SolStop™ should be anchored to a minimum 4” thick concrete pad and the base plate edges should be located a minimum of 6” from the edges of the concrete slab.
12. Reference Figure 4. for concrete anchoring guidelines and Figure 5. for concrete anchoring steps.
Battery
Be cautious when handling the battery as it is capable of generating hazardous short-circuit current. Remove all jewelry (bracelets, metal watches, rings) before attempting to handle or disassemble the battery from
the unit. Consult your local municipal laws for information on recycling the battery. Do not place used batteries in the garbage.
Maintenance of your SolStop
Solar panels need to be clean and free from debris. Clean on an annual basis (or more often as needed) with water and a soft cloth or sponge using a mild non-abrasive soap and rinse well.
