Lightforce 240 XGT - Manual

IMPORTANT
DO NOT TOUCH MIRRORED SURFACE OF THE REFLECTOR UPON BULB CHANGE.
This will result in contamination to the highly refl ective surface. It is advisable to wear safety glasses and gloves when replacing
the bulb. A clean cloth and alcohol may be used to remove any fi nger prints or external residue from the bulb surface. The
XGT housing must only be washed with soapy water, do not use solvents or solvent based cleaning agents as they may cause
damage. The light is designed to be run with the clear covers at all times to prevent damage to the front lens. XGT lights can
be mounted and used in any orientation!
INSTALLATION
It is important that the light be mounted on a fl at surface that supports the base fully and is isolated from excessive vibration. It
is equally important to ensure that there is adequate clearance once in position between the rear of the housing and any vehicle
structure to allow freedom of movement in the event of impact.
Carefully tighten the mounting bolt to 50 ft/lbs. Be particularly careful if using a spanner or wrench with greater than
normal leverage.
It is a good idea to have your existing electrical wiring relay with the terminals facing down. This helps protect the relay from
water spray damage. If the cable supplied as standard is not long enough, you must use the correct diameter cable to extend
the wiring harness. Ensure polarity by connecting RED to (+) positive and BLACK to (-) earth. If you are unsure PLEASE contact
a qualifi ed electrician.
In a safe location, ideally on a fl at long straight stretch of road loosen the adjustment on both axis and aim the lights as desired.
Lightforce Wiring Harness is available as an optional accessory.
BULB REPLACEMENT
1. Disconnect power to the light.
2. Evenly remove the four allen head screws (using a 2.5mm allen key) from the rear access plate. Note Note: This cover is
kept under tension via a large retaining spring, apply pressure to the access cover whilst removing the four screws.
Remove the rubber gasket from the housing.
3. Gently grasp the bulb holder and withdraw from the housing with the attached wires ensuring the blue seat is retained
in the refl ector.
4. Remove old bulb from the bulb holder by withdrawing straight out. DO NOT TOUCH NEW BULB WITH BARE FINGERS.
When fi tting the bulb grasp the bulb by the glass while using the protective wrapping or tissue to prevent the bulb from
being touched. Carefully push both pins into the bulb holder without twisting the bulb. Insert the new bulb until its
glass base is touching the bulb holder. Make sure the bulb fi lament is directly in line with the centre line of the bulb
holder. (If the fi lament is set to one side this will result in an uneven beam pattern.)
5. Reinsert bulb holder assembly feeding the power wires back into the housing. Ensure the holder is seated squarely into
the blue bulb seat with the power wires inserted between the “X” of the bulb holder.
6. Be careful when reseating the gasket that it is positioned correctly and the four screws evenly tensioned to ensure that
the housing remains sealed.
