1. Thread the coupling of the light into the mounting stake and run fixture power
cables to each light, one black wire, one white wire, and one green wire
(grounding) to each can.
2. Follow the wiring instructions on the next page.
3. Install the stake in a 6-inch (15 cm) diameter hole at a depth of 30 inches (76 cm).
Do not install stake by driving.
4. Make electrical connections and backfill around the stake with thoroughly
compacted earth passing a 1 inch (2.54 cm) sieve.
5. Where required due to unstable soil conditions, backfill with concrete. Install the
top of the stake even with, or not more than ½-inch (1.3 cm), above the finished
grade and maintain within 1 degree of the vertical.
6. In areas where frost may cause heaving, anchor the stake with concrete and use a
permeable backfill material such as sand around the buried electrical components
and then cover the top surface with an impervious material to reduce moisture
penetration.
