Intended use
The garden and object spots clarios ex beam and clarios II are designed for providing effect
lighting for plants and objects as well as for permanent installation. They are designed for operating
in moderate climatic zones and under water (depth 1 m). The luminary is meant for operating with
protectivelowvoltage.Incaseofdetailedlightingplanning,pleaserequestthelightdistribution
curves (LDC).
The adjustment mechanism for the light angle of the clarios ex beam is laid out for setting up.
Note on the installation to be carried by an expert
The installation may only be carried out by appropriately trained professionals.
Safety instructions
During installation, the relative safety regulations have to be followed. The spot is operated with
protectivelowvoltageof12VDCor24DC(observespotversion).Toavoiddangerandfailures,
prior or any work at the spot or installation, disconnect the power supply from the mains. The spot
can‘tbeopened.Connectthesportonlytopowersupplieswithamaximumoutputvoltageof12V

Observe the installation manual of the power supply. Do not overload the power supply! The overall
powerconsumedbyallconsumersconnectedtothepowersupplyshouldbeapprox.10%lower
than the rated power of the power supply being used.

Do not open the housing of the luminary. The tightness of the clarios is only guaranteed if also
the outer sheath of the connection cable is undamaged and if the connection cable is bonded in a
waterproof way. Otherwise, because of the capillary effect, the penetrating moisture can reach and
destroy the electronics of the spot.

Preparation
Dependingontheconguration,unpackallthepartsincludedinthescopeofdeliveryandcheck
them for completeness and intactness.
Dispose of the packaging material no longer needed in accordance with applicable regulations.
If you notice any damage from transport, immediately contact the dealer where you purchased the
luminary.
Assembly
Mechanical installation
Mark the hole for substrate mounting through a hole in base of the mounting bracket. The dowel in-
cluded in the scope of delivery is suitable for installation in concrete, stone and masonry. Drill a hole
ofØ8mmanddeeperthan50mmintothesubstrateandinsertthedowelintothehole.Incase
ofwoodensubstratesthemountingbracketcandirectlyxedusingthesuppliedscrew,withoutthe
dowel.Incaseofhardwoodtheholesmayrequirepre-drillingwithØ3mm.
Position the mounting bracket over the dowel, orientate it into the desired direction and screw it
down with the supplied screw.
Now, the clarios can be attached to the mounting bracket.
5. Thread a snap ring onto a screw, insert it through a hole at the upper end of the mounting
bracket, thread a plastic washer onto the screw and screw it laterally into the threaded holes on
the luminary housing. In order to do so, insert the spot in the mounting bracket.
6. Repeat that with the second screw, snap ring and plastic washer on the other side.

put a piece of wood or the like between the hammer and the ground spike in order to protect the
latter. Then, screw the mounting bracket with the luminary onto the ground spike using the screw
and the snap ring provided with the ground spike. The snap ring is placed between screw head and
mounting bracket. Orientate the mounting bracket before screwing it down.
