NFORMATION
Read all instructions before proceeding.
1).
These instructions show the orientation of the lights after the proper mounting location has
been determined. For proper light selection, positioning and configuration, refer to A.Y.B.C.
Standard A-16*, the ‘72 COLREGS*, and the U.S. Inland Navigation Rules*. These lights are
supplied complete with 12 volt bulbs (Special 0071DP8CLR 12V, 8W), however 24 volt bulbs
(Cat. No. 0072DP8CLR) are available for 24 volt systems. Note: PERKO Series 0254 & 0264
side lights used with a 24V bulb are not certified in accordance with 33 CFR 183.810 as these lights
are intended for replacement use only on appropriate vessels constructed prior to 11/1/03. All pre-
vious certifications apply.
2).
These lights are designed to be mounted on vertical surfaces that are parallel to the centerline of
the boat.
3).
Draw a 6 inch long horizontal reference line through the center of the selected mounting loca-
tion and parallel to the centerline of the boat.
4).
Cut out the mounting template. Tape it on the mounting surface such that the reference line
(drawn above) is directly underneath the reference line marked on the template, and the arrow
on the template points ahead (not astern).
5).
Drill 2 holes for #8 round head screws.
6).
Drill a 1/4 inch diameter hole as indicated to provide the necessary clearance for the supply con-
nections.
7).
Attach supply connections to the light, making sure to wire in accordance with both A.B.Y.C.
Standard E-9* and U.S. Coast Guard Safety Standards for Boat Electrical Systems (33 CFR
183)*
8).
Mount the light on the correct side of the boat in accordance to Diagram #1. Note that there
are thin reference marks around the outside of the black base that must be aligned with the
reference line (drawn in step #3) for final accuracy of mounting orientation.
9).
Recheck that the red shows port and green shows starboard.
