Installation Instructions
B745236T Strobe Lights
(Magnetic Mount)
WARNING
Because vehicle roof construction and driving
conditions vary, driving a vehicle with a mag­
netically mounted warning light installed is not
recommended. The light could fly off the vehicle
causing injury or damage. Repair of damage
incurred because of ignoring this warning shall
be the sole responsibility of the user.
Holding power of magnetic mounting systems
is dependent upon surface finish, surface flat­
ness, and thickness of the steel mounting surface.
Therefore, to promote proper magnetic mounting:
• Mounting surface and magnets must be kept
clean, dry, and free of foreign particles that pre­
vent good surface contact.
In order to protect your truck painting from scratch-
ing apply protective sticker to strobe magnet.
• Ensure that mounting surface is flat.
• Magnet mounting system should not be used
on vehicles with vinyl tops.
• To prevent sliding of light assembly on mount­
ing surface, quick acceleration and hard stops
should be avoided.
• If the light is to be held directly to the roof by
the magnet, ensure that the power cable is not
under the magnet.
Insert plug into auxiliary outlet. Red indicator light
will turn ON. If indicator light in not ON and strobe
light is not working inspect and replace fuse
located inside plug with equal style 3 AMP fuse.
Do not pull cord to unplug strobe light, always
pull plug.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING
High voltage generated by the light’s power sup­
ply may cause property damage, serious injury
or death to you or others. Ensure that power to
light is disconnected and wait at least 5 minutes
before working on the light.
Flash Tube Replacement
As strobe lights are used, the flash tubes begin to
darken, causing the light output to decrease. This
darkening is characteristic of flash tubes. Also, as
flash tubes age, they may have a tendency to mis-
fire (not fire periodically).
After extended operation, occasionally check for
flash tube degradation. Should the flash tube mis-
fire, have a noticeable decrease in light output or
glow continuously—it should be replaced.
To replace the flash tube, proceed as follows:
A. Disconnect power.
B. Remove the lens from the base. CAUTION.
Service life of strobe tube will be shortened if glass
portion is touched. If glass has been handled, clean
carefully with a grease solvent.
C. Grasp the flash tube by its printed circuit board
and pull it off of the pins, using a gentle “rocking”
motion. Install a new flash tube. Reassemble the
light.
D. Reconnect power and test the light for proper
operation.
