INSTALLATION:
1. Mounting:
• Determine the best location to mount the fixture. Optimum installation height is
between seven and nine feet above ground level.
Caution: Before cutting or drilling holes, ensure that the mounting surfaces are clear of
obstructions and that the screws will not damage internal parts of the vehicle.
• Use the supplied template to cut a suitable 9-17/32” x 5-3/4” mounting hole in the
location where the fixture is intended to be installed.
• Drill suitable mounting holes for the appropriate mounting hardware. The supplied
template may be used, or the fixture itself may be set in place and used as a template.
• Attach the mounting gasket to the flange on the fixture.
Caution: Failure to install the gasket may permit water entry into the vehicle.
• Install the fixture in the mounting hole and secure it with suitable mounting screws.
The mounting screws supplied are intended for use in sheet metal of at least 1/8”
thickness. It is recommended to wax the screws prior to installation.
Caution: Ensure that the fixture is secure and the gasket is tightly compressed to prevent water
from entering the vehicle. Havis-Shields does not warrant that the mounting hardware or gasket
supplied are suitable for all installations; suitability for an installation is the sole responsibility of the
installer.
• Connect the wires as directed below, and test for correct operation.
2. Wiring:
• All wiring must be connected per applicable codes.
• Connect wires following the appropriate diagram on next page.
• Test the light for proper operation.

3. Maintenance:
• Make sure power is off before performing any maintenance on the fixture.
• Loosen the lens frame screws and remove the lens frame.
• To replace a halogen bulb, remove the bulb by unscrewing it from the socket.
Replace the bulb with a similar type, 250W maximum.
Caution: Do not touch the bulb glass or fixture reflector. If necessary, clean with isopropyl alcohol.
• Clean the lens and gasket area before re-assembling the fixture.
• Re-assemble the fixture, ensuring the lens frame screws are tightened to 15-18 in-lb
torque.
• Test for proper operation.
4. Troubleshooting:
• In the event of improper operation, for halogen fixtures, first check the bulb and
replace it if it is burned out.
• If the halogen bulb is okay, or for an HID fixture, use a voltmeter to ensure that the
fixture is receiving adequate power. Halogen fixtures require 120vAC and HID
fixtures require 12VDC for proper operation. Correct any faults found.
• If necessary, contact Havis-Shields for additional troubleshooting procedures.
For 120 volt AC Fixtures:
• All 120 volt AC fixtures have three (3) wires. The green wire is always ground.
Attach the black wire to 120 volt HOT and the white to 120 volt NEUTRAL.
For 12 VDC Fixtures:
• All versions have a red and black wire or a white and black wire. Attach the
red/white wire to positive 12 VDC and the black wire to negative.
