8. Dress properly. Protective, electrically nonconductive clothes and nonskid footwear are
recommended when setting up the Solar Light Set. Wear restrictive hair covering to contain
long hair.
9. Use eye protection. Always wear ANSI approved impact safety goggles when setting up this
product.
10. Maintain products with care. Keep the Solar Light Set clean for better and safer performance.
Inspect the Solar Light Set periodically. If damaged, have it repaired by an authorized
technician.
11. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
12. Use the right Solar Light for the job. Do not attempt to force a small Solar Light to do the
work of a larger Solar Light. There are certain applications for which this Solar Light Set was
designed. Do not modify these products and do not use this Solar Light for a purpose for which
it was not intended.
13. Do not set up the Solar Light Set if under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Read warning
labels on prescriptions to determine if your judgement or reflexes are impaired while taking
drugs. If there is any doubt, do not set up the Solar Light.
14. Keep the Solar Panel free of dirt, dust and grime. Dust covering the Solar Panel will
block out sunlight causing a decrease or stoppage of efficiency in recharging the
batteries.
WARNING: NiCad batteries must be disposed of properly. Do not incinerate. Batteries may
burst, causing personal injury and/or property damage. Contact your local
hazardous waste disposal authority for proper disposal.
WARNING: The warnings, cautions, and instructions discussed in this instruction manual cannot
cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood by
the operator that common sense and caution are factors which cannot be built into
this product, but must be supplied by the operator.

Assembly/ Operation
Your Solar Light Set will require complete assembly. The Solar Light Set requires special conditions
for set up and operation. It is important that you read the entire manual to become familiar with the
product BEFORE you use the Solar Light Set. Before operating the Solar Light Set be sure that you
have all parts described in the Parts List and Assembly Diagram located on page 5 of this manual.
1.
Decide where you want to place the Solar Light Set. Choose a location that receives full,
direct sunlight a minimum of six hours a day. The location should not be near nighttime light
sources such as porch lights or streetlights as this may trigger the lights to turn off or flicker.
2.
The Solar Light Set will need to charge for at least 6 hours before using it for the
first time.

4.
Each light is powered by a battery. Each Battery (6) has a pull tab that keeps the battery
disconnected until you are ready to use the Solar Light Set. To access the battery, see
steps 4, 5 and 6. Refer to the section, “Replacing the Battery” and see Figure 1.
Remove the Solar Assembly (3) by unscrewing it from the Cover (1) and gently pulling it off.
Unscrew the three screws from the Solar Assembly (3)-see Figure 1.
5.
6.
Carefully separate the top portion of the Solar Assembly (3) from the bottom piece as seen
in Figure 1. Be careful to not bump or pull on any wires while doing this. If any wires are
pulled, they may disconnect and disable the Solar Light.
Remove the pull tab from the Battery (6) so that the battery in each light is connected and
providing power to the Solar Light. The pull tab can be grasped with long nosed pliers
through the hole in the Solar Assembly. Note: Keep the pull tab and attach it to the battery
when the Light Set is being stored and not being used.
Note: During the day, the Solar Panel converts sunlight into electricity, recharging the battery. The
amount of light the Solar Panel receives depends on placement of the Solar Light Set,
geographic location and weather. If the weather is cloudy and the panel did not receive a full
charge, the Solar Light Set may not achieve the full hours of operating time. It will catch up
on its own after two to three days of full sun.
7.
Slide the top Tube (4) into the Cover (1). Set another Tube (4) into the top Tube (4).
Slide the Stake (6) onto the lower Tube (4)-see Fig. 2.
Warning: Before inserting the Solar Lights into the ground, make certain to choose an area
where there are no underground pipes, cables or other obstructions.
Make certain that the ground is soft enough to accept the Stakes (6). Gently insert them into
the ground making certain that it is in solid. Make certain that the Stake (6) is completely
inserted into the ground to assure full stability for the Solar Light.

2.
Remove the Cover (1). Unscrew the three screws from the Solar Assembly (3)-see
Figure 1.
Carefully separate the top portion of the Solar Assembly from the bottom piece as seen in
Figure 1. Be careful to not bump or pull on any wires while doing this. If any wires are
pulled, they may disconnect and break the Solar Light.
3.
Remove the old Battery (6). Make certain that the new battery is Ni-Cd (600 mAh/1.2V)
rechargeable. Install the new battery into the battery compartment. Make certain that the
battery is placed according to the correct polarity.
Maintenance
Clean regularly with a damp towel. Do not use any type of solvent for cleaning. Do not put
