Work Instructions: Light Module Assembly

Each step number includes corresponding pictures. Numbered parts are depicted on the technical drawing on page 3. Assembly instructions include a pre-populated printed circuit board (#6) as well as CREE LED light (#4) affixed with heat sink (#3). Operator should be qualified in soldering procedures and basic tools.

Steps:

1.)Assemble Cover

  1. Insert two hex screws (#9) into likesized holes on opposite sides of the top cap (#1); Fasten top cap with one hex nut (#2) on each screw; Insert two washers (#12) and one more hex nut on each screw;
  2. Insert DC Power jack (#7) into fit hole in the top cap so that wires are facing the inside of the assembly - tighten on the bottom end of the cap; Insert DPDT switch (#11) into remaining hole - tighten from top end of cap,

2.)Place LED

  1. Slide Heat Sink (#3) onto Cover Assembly using the two hex screws (#9); the attached CREE LED (#4) should face the Top Cap (#1). Make sure the heat sink fits properly with the shortened end facing the DPDT Switch (#11) – if applied incorrectly the heat sink will not be level with the top cap.

3.)Insert Patter Pack

  1. Insert 4 NMH Batteries into battery pack.
  2. Slide battery pack (#5) between hex screws – battery pack may need to be filed down where in contact with hex screws to fit properly.
  3. Make sure that connection wiring from DC Jack (#7), CREE LED (#4), and Battery Pack (#5) are exposed, they will be connected in the next step.
  4. Tighten batter pack in place using one hex nut (#2) on each hex screw.

4.)Connect PCB

  1. Slide populated PCB (#6) half way onto hex screws without fastening so that the component side is facing the top of the assembly.
  2. Solder component wires to corresponding PCB pins accordingly:

Wire / PCB pin
  1. Black CREE LED wire - LED –
  2. Red CREE LED wire -LED +
  3. Black Battery Wire - Vin –
  4. Red Battery Wire -Vin +
  5. Black Switch Wire -SW3
  6. Green Switch Wire -SW2
  7. Red Switch Wire -SW1
  8. Black DC Jack Wire -J –
  9. Red DC Jack Wire -J +
  1. When all wires are correctly connected, carefully slide the PCB on to the assembly completely; apply a hex nut onto each hex screw to fasten PCB in place – be sure not to damage the PCB when tightening hex nuts.

5.)Fasten Can Housing

  1. Place component assembly inside can housing (#10), inserting the hex screws into the holes in the bottom of the can; be careful not pull out any wire connections in this process.
  2. Insert Lamp Hanger (#8) onto the length of hex screw at the bottom of the can housing; screw on a hex nut on each hex screw – securely tighten.
  3. Apply silicone waterproofing sealant to the edge of the Top Cap where it meets the Can Housing.
