Installing your Sollos PDO083 Style Dome Path Light 12V Series correctly ensures both safety and optimal performance. Here's a step-by-step guide:
-
Safety First: This fixture is designed for low-voltage landscape power systems and T3 G4 BiPin lamps (max 20 watts). Always follow the National Electric Code and local codes. Ignoring these guidelines can void your warranty and pose safety risks.
-
Lamp Installation and Replacement:
- Disconnect the transformer from your main power supply.
- Remove the fixture's shade/glass lens assembly. You'll do this by rotating it counterclockwise from the stem.
- Insert a T3 G4 bi-pin lamp (maximum 20 watts) into the lamp socket at the top of the stem.
- Reattach the shade/glass lens assembly by screwing it clockwise onto the stem.
-
Mounting the Fixture:
- Again, disconnect the transformer from the main power supply.
- Feed the pigtail wires from the bottom of the fixture through the hole and slot on the mounting stake.
- Secure the fixture into the mounting stake hole.
- Place the fixture and stake in your desired location and push the stake into the ground until it sits flush with the surface.
- Strip the two pigtail wires from the fixture and connect them to your main supply cable leads using waterproof connectors.
- Ensure the fixture wiring is buried no deeper than six inches.
- Reconnect the transformer and verify the fixture is working as expected.

If using Halco JC Series ProLED lamps, make sure they operate within the voltage range of 10-18 volts AC. This protects the LED's internal components and maintains your warranty. By carefully following these steps, you'll successfully install your Sollos PDO083 Style Dome Path Light 12V Series, enjoying its beauty and performance for years to come.
