Three Mounting Holes for Solar Panel Base
1. Mount solar panel base on a solid surface using
three tapered screws. Adjust the panel to point directly
at the noon sun. Avoid obstructions such as trees or
buildings that may block sun light. Allow for enough
wire to reach the case. Keep ball joint at bottom.
Note: You will want to re-aim the solar panel as the
seasons change to keep it pointed directly at the noon
sun.
2. Mount the battery case on a solid surface using
two round-head screws and the keyholes on the
back of the case.
3. Adjust sensor. For proper operation, the sensor
head must be rotated so that the sensor controls face
downward as shown below.
IMPORTANT: The controls must face downward to
avoid damage from rain. If controls face upward, move
sensor to the original down position, rotate 180°, then
raise to the position shown below.
