IMPORTANT
The following instructions are provided to assure safe
installation and operation of LED Mini Step Lights. Please
read carefully before connecting or installing this
product.
1. The LED Mini Step Lights are a safe low voltage lighting
system that are suitable for indoor and outdoor locations.
2. Do not mount or support the LED Mini Step Lights in a
manner that can cut the outer jacket or damage wire
insulation.
3. Always make sure power is disconnected from the LED
fixtures before cutting, mounting, attaching terminal
block, attaching end cap or modifying in any way.
4. Do not exceed the maximum capacity of the 350mA
DC power supply used for any series configuration.

BEFORE YOU START
• Always make sure the LED Mini Step Light is
disconnected from the power source before wiring.
• Determine the number of LED lights your application will
require. There are multiple power connection configurations
and accessories that allow many installation options. See
reverse side prior to installation to determine the best
configuration for each installation. Remember, in any case,
do not exceed the capacity of the power supply used for
any single run.
****FOR HARDWIRE INSTALLATIONS, SEE OTHER SIDE ****
CONNECTING TO POWER SUPPLY
Use a 350mA power supply as recommended by the factory.
Use of any other power supply will void the warranty. Make
sure the power source is disconnected before making any
connections.
FOR PLUG IN INSTALLATIONS (using LED-DR10-350PI)
1. Utilizing a good pair of shears, cut the Molex connector off
the power connector (LED-CON2-350, LED-CON3-350 or
LED-CON6-350). Do NOT cut the molex connector off of the
Mini Step Lights! Do NOT cut the molex connector off of any
power connectors for hardwire power supplies! See reverse
side for hardwire installation instructions.
2. Strip the insulation back 3/16” on lead wires.
3. Place the stripped leads of the power connector into one side
of the TL-CONBLK2 connector (see Figure 1) and tighten screws.
4. Place stripped leads of plug-in driver LED-DR10-350PI into
the other side of TL-CONBLK2 connector, being sure to match
polarity and tighten screws. Connect solid red power connector
lead to power supply connector marked with red. Black/red
striped power connector lead goes to black power supply lead.
See Figures 2 and 3.
5. Check that the male Molex connector of each light is in
operable condition. If in operable condition, insert male Molex
connector into an open female port of the power connector.
6. When powering only one Mini Step Light, it is necessary to
insert an end cap, LED-END-350, into the other open port to
complete the series wiring.
7. When powering any number of LED Mini Step Lights, every
port of each power connector must be connected to an end
cap, another power connector or a light. See Figure 3.
ATTACHING JUNCTION BOX
1. Each TL-CONBLK2 (shown in Figures 1 and 2) can be placed in
a junction box (FSL-BOX) if desired.
2. Disconnect power from transformer.
3. Place TL-CONBLK2 assembly into top of FSL-BOX.
4. Make sure TL-CONBLK2 assembly fits into junction box and
enclose with FSL-BOX bottom. Tighten four screws through
bottom cover plate into FSL-BOX housing.

MOUNTING LED MINI STEP LIGHT
1. Always make sure power is disconnected
before modifying, mounting or installing a
series of LED Mini Step Lights.
2. Drill a 1-1/2” hole in mounting surface.
3. Open steel spring clips. Feed wire through
hole.
4. Make sure that the fixture’s lead wire is not
in contact with sharp objects.
5. Push light into hole and slowly release
spring clips.
6. Maximum wattage per series is dependent
upon the capacity of the power supply. Add
the number of lights and respective wattage
to assure you do not exceed the maximum
wattage.
