2.4 Mounting Orientation
All Twister enclosures are designed to be mounted either base-down, base-up or horizontal, on a solid structure,
using the mounting hardware described above.
Base Up Base Down Horizontal
(see 2.5.1 below) (see 2.5.2 below) (see 2.5.3below)
Note that the air inlet and exhaust cowls are trimmed and oriented differently, depending on the mounting
orientation. See next section for detailed instructions.
2.4.1 Weep Holes
For Base up and horizontal installation, it is necessary to drill a drainage hole at the lowest point of the globe.
USE ONLY THE SPECIAL ACRYLIC TAPERED DRILL BIT SUPPLIED WITH YOUR TWISTER MANUAL. A regular
bit may crack the globe. Tempest Lighting Inc. accepts no responsibility for such damage.
NOTE:
Horizontal enclosures –
be sure to always
replace the globe with
the weep holes down.
