Night Hawk Variable Series Driving Lights Night Hawk Variable Series Driving Lights 0403
The Night Hawk Variable Series LED Driving Lights by Bushranger 4X4 have been
developed from the ground up by our team of engineers to offer a truly unique design
that takes performance, aesthetics and usability to a whole new level. They lead the
way with simple, plug and play installation and an advanced control system that offers
greater control and reliability over traditional on/off relay-based lighting systems.
The three variations offered in the Variable Series line-up unlock more options to suit
the driver’s individual needs when tackling their next adventure. We have put user-
controlled lighting at the forefront of our development, and the ability to choose the
optimum settings to suit an individual’s visual preference or the environment, plus
changeonthey,setstheselightsapartfromtherest.Thisishighperformancelighting
that is adaptable to suit you and your needs.
Control the night.

• Werecommendthelights/wiringtobettedbyaqualiedautomotiveelectrician.
• A forward facing light system may be used only as an auxiliary to high beam. Check
compliance and regulations with local authorities.
• Vehicle accessories mounted on the outside of the vehicle may need to comply with
regulations governed by your local state authority. Please check before installation.
• When mounting lights, position them appropriately so they do not obstruct existing
automotivefunction.Ifttingtofrontofvehicle,checkforbonnetclearances.
• Considerationshouldbegivenforairowrequirementsofthevehicleandits
mechanical components when mounting lights.
• All stainless steel hardware must have anti-seize lubricant applied to the threads
before tightening to avoid binding or galling of components.
• Ensure all recyclable parts/packaging are discarded in accordance to local
regulations.
Themountingbracketissuppliedlooselyttedtothelight.ThestainlesssteelM6x25mm
or M8 x 30mm button head bolts that secure the mounting bracket to the light must be
removedandhaveanti-seizelubricantappliedtothethreadsbeforenalinstallation.
The use of anti-seize greatly reduces the risk of thread galling or binding commonly seen
between stainless steel nuts and bolts during tightening. Anti-seize must also be applied
to all the mounting fasteners used to secure the light to the vehicle.
Ensurethemountinglocationfortmentofthelight/stothevehicleisat,stable,
sufcientlystrongandhasenoughclearancearoundthelighttoavoiddamagetothe
vehicle from any movement during installation and use. If drilling is required for mounting,
ensure raw edges are coated with corrosion resistant paint or inhibitor.
The light can be adjusted horizontally and vertically. All adjustments are to be made
beforenaltighteningoffasteners.Horizontaladjustmentisgainedbyrotatingthe
light body to the desired position and tightening the centre M10 or M12 bolt. Vertical
adjustment is gained by tilting the light body up or down and tightening the 4 x side bolts.

thevehicle.Forinitialsetupandadjustment,thefastenersshouldbengertightened.
Once all adjustments have been made, all fasteners should be tightened and torqued

To t a protective cover, align the 5 x clips on the cover with the openings in the front of
the light, thenpushcoverrmlyuntilalloftheclips‘click’intotheopenings.To remove the
cover, pull out on the 2 x lower tabs until the clips release from the light.
• The light is not serviceable – DO NOT disassemble.
• Clean lights using pH neutral soapy water and a soft nonabrasive brush or sponge. Rinse
thoroughly after cleaning.
• DO NOT use solvents, Alkaline based cleaners or abrasive materials to clean the light.
• If lights are exposed to a high salt environment or any other corrosive substance,
remove the light and mounting bracket from the vehicle and thoroughly clean and
rinse the components as outlined above.
• Remove the clear cover and plastic cover on the rear of the light periodically to clean
any dirt and grime build up.
• Regularly check all fasteners to ensure they are secured and properly torqued.
