FEATURES
This base is designed for use with the Attwood 3900 Series All-Round
Lights and Attwood Combination Sidelights.

For 12-volt D.C. only.

CAUTION
To prevent personal injury, always disconnect the power source
when installing or servicing this product. Always remove the boat

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Note:
For technical detailed positioning follow COLREG 72 or ABYC
A-16. Below is a simplified drawing of placement of navigational
lights in relationship to one another. (Figure 1)

Figure 1

1. Position the light base either on the bow for combination sidelights

or the stern or gunwale for all-round lights. Be sure that the mounting
surface is flat and that the selected area will accommodate the
base dimensions. Base angle and position must properly place
light used in base.

2. Using the template provided, locate the base center line parallel to

the boat fore-and-aft center line and carefully mark the center
installation hole and the screw holes. Drill 1-3/8'' diameter hole
being very careful not to crack or break the gelcoat finish, and sand
to remove burrs from around the edge of the hole. Drill the pilot
screw holes. (Figure 2)

3. Apply sealant between deck and light base. Fasten base in place

with stainless steel screws.

Note: On some installations you may have to connect the wires then
push them back through wire hole prior to screwing down the base.

CAUTION

Do not overtighten screws.

FINAL WIRING FOR:
91024, 91026 (2 wire base):
