Model ‘ULED’ Spring Balanced Examination Light - Installation & Maintenance Instructions
1.0 INTRODUCTION
This installation and instruction manual describes how to install, maintain and operate the Planet Model
‘ULED’ examination light. Prior to installation carefully read through all the instructions enclosed in this
manual. This information is subject to change and applies to Standard ULED only. Variations may apply
to custom made ttings.
If there are any concerns or you do not understand, please contact customer service at Planet Lighting.
WARNINGS
Only qualied electricians can install the Planet model ‘ULED’ light. It is to be direct wired only.
Installation performed by unauthorised personnel could result in personal injury and or equipment
damage. Under no circumstances should any modications or adjustments, other than those detailed
under section 9.0 Maintenance, be made to the Planet Model ULED.

technology combined with the proven Planet Model U spring arm and bracket system. Designed and
manufactured in Australia by Planet Lighting (established 1911) an R&D driven, exporting designer and
manufacturer with over 6 years experience in the design, manufacture and supply of Solid State Lighting
devices worldwide. The Planet ULED provides an improved working environment, signicantly reducing
on-going maintenance, with low operational costs and oers a“greener” alternative to similar products.
The Planet model ULED allows the accurate positioning of the lamp head above any work surface. It is
designed to be mounted on a wall or ceiling and be pulled down from above when required, remaining
there until re - positioned.

2.1.0 Environmental Considerations
2.1.1 Standard Packaging
I box containing a complete ULED lamp with Installation and users manual.
2.1.2 Transport
transport to be carried out by road, while maintaining the following environmental
conditions.
Temperature: -15/+60 degrees Celsius
Humidity : 10/75%
Atmospheric pressure(h/Pa) 500/1060
2.1.3 Storage
The devices packaged must be stored (warehoused) in a dry place and as per the same
environmental conditions mentioned above.
2.2.0 Disposal and Recycling Information
The ULED light has been designed, taking into account what the manufacturing
components are made out of. This is to ensure when it reaches its end of life, the
disposal method with the lowest/ least negative impact, on human health and the
environment is selected. Unlike the sources of traditional light, LED’s do not contain
mercury, toxic gases, laments or fragile parts. Due to the xture being over 95%
recyclable and there being no Bulbs/Globe changing during the ULED life of 50,000+
hours your environmental footprint will be signicantly reduced.
When your ULED light reaches its end of life, contact Planet lighting or our local
agents to learn about recycling options.The ULED light must be disposed of properly
according to local laws and, regulations.
3.0 PLANNING
Prior to installing the Planet Model‘ULED’Ceiling and Wall mounts the following items should be checked
and conrmed.
3.1.0 Architectural considerations
3.1.1 Ensure appropriate mounting structure behind the wall/ceiling
3.1.2 For structural loadings and appox product weights (refer Fig12)
3.1.3 To conrm ceiling/wall height measurements at the appropriate nominal
recommended height from the oor refer Fig 1 (back page)
3.2.0 Electrical considerations
3.2.1 The Planet Model ‘ULED’ wall and ceiling mount are designed to be direct wired only
3.2.2 240V AC supply is available at the connection points

4.0 INSTALLATION:
The Planet Model ULED arm is designed to be mounted above the immediate work area. Standard mounting xtures for
Planet Model ULED are: Ceiling Mount & Wall Mount (specialised mountings are available on application). In all cases the
suggested mounting height (measured at swivel head) is two metres from oor level. (refer Fig 1)
To ensure correct balance of the Model ULED movement the lamp must be mounted with the stem, around which it
rotates, vertical at all times.
(refer Fig 1)
WARNING The qualied electrician who is responsible for the installation of the ULED must include an isolation switch
(all -pole disconnection) in the xed wiring of the ULED and a cable tie near the terminal block of the primary (240V)
wiring (Phase and Neutral) to secure the cables.

WARNING
Only appropriately qualied personnel should carry out maintenance on Planet light xtures
9.0 MAINTENANCE:
Planet Lighting recommend that if there is a technical fault with one of our ULED lights, the product is returned to
our factory to be repaired. If a qualied technician is available to repair the xture, circuit diagrams, parts lists, and
descriptions will be made available to assist in this process.
The following maintenance procedures performed as required should ensure your Planet Model ULED provides
many years of eective service
9.1 Cleaning
Carefully remove any loose deposits with a damp sponge. Use a soft brush (non abrasive) or cloth, and/or a mild
household detergent solution to remove dust and other deposits. Do not use steel wool, scrapers, scouring liquids or
powders to remove deposits as these permanently scratch the coating surface. Wipe with clean damp sponge to
remove detergent.
9.2 Head Removal (refer Fig 10)
In the unlikely event that one or more of the LED’s should fail, the light head has been designed to be removed
without tools for return to Planet lighting for prompt service. Our LED light head does not contain user seviceable parts.
9.3 Lubrication (refer Fig 9)
To prevent undue stiness or joint seizure the springs of the Planet Model U have been pre-packed with high
quality grease. The pivoting mechanisms at the main elbow joint and the link pin at the swivel head should receive
regular light oiling.
9.4 Lock Nut Adjustment (refer Fig 9)
Fine adjustment of the frictional inertia of the lamp movement is provided by tensioning the small lock nut on the link
pin at the base of the swivel head. This nut should be tensioned so that the lamp rmly retains its position when
adjusted but can be freely re-positioned under the pressure of one nger at the elbow joint. Do not attempt to correct
an unbalanced movement by over-tightening this nut. (refer Fig 9)
WARNING UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD THE SPRING TENSION NUTS (TWO) BE COMPLETELY UNDONE .
(refer Fig 11)
9.5 Spring Tensioning (refer Fig 11)
After extended use the main balance springs of the Model ULED arm may require tension adjustment (generally the
spring on your left hand side when facing the lamp). This may be done by carefully prising the plastic cap o the end
of the spring tube to permit access to tensioning nuts. Nuts should be tightened in small increments using a 15mm
hexagon tube spanner until the lamp assumes correct balance.
Do not over tighten tension springs.
