MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
Light Unit/Permanent Mount
Determine the location for the light on your vehicle or
boat. Remove the mounting plate from the light.
Center the mounting plate. Mark the hole locations
for the four mounting screws and drill a pilot hole for
each with 1/8 inch bit. Fasten the stainless steel
mounting plate with the 3 #10 – 16x3/4 type AB
cross recessed pan head tapping screws. Drill a 1
1/4” hole in the center of the mounting plate opening
to accommodate the wiring harness and connector.
Attach the connector that is affixed to the underside
of the light to the corresponding connector on the
wiring harness. Position the connection point
beneath the mounting surface, and apply silicone
sealant around wire to seal the drilled opening. Place
the light over the mounting plate. Install the set
screws (provided) and tighten.
Light Unit/Magnetic Mount
Select the best location on your vehicle for the
magnetic mount Stryker. Make sure the metal area
under the magnetic base is flat and clean to ensure a
strong bond. Route the power cord into the vehicle
through a door frame and connect to power outlet.
The magnetic mount GL-4600-M should be removed
from vehicle’s exterior while traveling at excessive
speeds and in strong wind conditions.
Dash Control/Permanent Mount
Determine the appropriate location for the dash
mount control and create an opening to
accommodate the board on the rear of the remote.
Affix the control to the dash with four screws. The
words should be facing upright and should be
situated accordingly. All wiring should be undertaken
with power removed from the system. First, attach
the connector that is affixed to the control to the
corresponding connector on the wiring harness.
Next, join the leads at the remote to 23-32V DC
power with appropriate automotive wire attachments;
the wire with (+) is the positive lead and the opposite
black wire is the negative lead--the unit is polarity
sensitive and care must be taken to observe this. As
a safety feature, the power switch is backlit to
indicate bulb illumination. Each spotlight needs to be
wired on a single dedicated circuit and the power
fused at 5 amps. With the power connected, your
light is ready for operation.
OPERATION OF GL-4600
1.Using the remote control, turn on the light by
moving the on/off switch.
2.With the joystick on the dash control, rotate your
