THIS PRODUCT IS SUITABLE FOR WALL
MOUNTING ONLY

CHOOSING A MOUNTING LOCATION:
• Mount the floodlight onto solid brick or woodwork, 3 - 5m above the ground [Fig.2].
• Avoid positioning the light near heat sources such as hot ventilator ducts, air conditioning units, street lighting or traffic which
may interfere with its operation.
FIXING THE CONNECTION BOX:
WARNING: Isolate the power supply before installation.
• Position the unit on the wall and mark the position for the connection box (which can be positioned in either landscape or
portrait planes [Fig. 3]).
• Ensure the wires can easily enter the connection box through either one of the knock-outs on the side of the connection box,
or through the knock-out at the rear of the box.
NOTE: It is recommended that the knock-outs on the sides of the connection box are used in conjunction with the
cable gland [Fig 4.] as using the knock-out at the rear of the connection box will reduce the weatherproof rating
of the unit to IP23.
• However, If feeding a wire(s) through the knock-out at the rear of the connection box, this will need to be removed, the sealing
grommet fitted [Fig.5] and the wire pushed through into the connection box BEFORE it is secured to the wall.
• If feeding a wire(s) through the side knock-outs, it is easiest to fit the cable gland to the connection box [Fig.4] BEFORE
securing it to the wall, and wires should enter the connection box from the sides or underneath, NOT from the top.
FIXING THE CONNECTION BOX (Cont):
• Use the connection box Fixing Holes [Fig.6] to mark the 4 drill holes required to secure the box to the wall (and mark
the cable outlet location if required). Drill the wall and screw the connection box onto the wall using the screws and wall
plugs provided.
• Once the wire(s) has been fed through the Sealing Gland, the nut on the gland should be gently tightened up against the
gland body [Fig. 8] to ensure the wire(s) is secured in place and no water can get though into the connection box.
WIRING THE FLOODLIGHT:
• Once the power cable has been fed through the cable gland (or sealing grommet if using the knock-out at the rear of the
connection box) approximately 6mm of insulation should be stripped from each of the cores of AC cable ready to attach it to
the terminal block in the front of the light fitting.
NOTE: The Hylite Mightylites MLF016 and MLF028 are Class 1 fittings and therefore need to be Earthed
CONNECTING TO POWER SUPPLY
• Connect the BROWN or RED (Live) wire to the terminal (marked “L”) holding the single BROWN wire in the floodlight unit [Fig.8].
• Connect the BLUE or BLACK (Neutral) wire to the terminal (marked “N”) holding the BLUE wire in the floodlight unit.
• Connect the YELLOW/GREEN or BARE (Earth) wire to the terminal (marked “EARTH”) holding the YELLOW/GREEN
wire in the floodlight unit
• After the connections have been secured, the floodlight front (Connection Box front) should be fastened to the Connection
Box using the 4 Connection Box Screws provided [Fig.9]
• Once screws are secure, the screw covers (provided) should be fitted should be fitted [Fig.9].
• To adjust the MightyLite simply hold the Connection Box firmly whilst moving the head of the floodlight to the required position.
