NightBright Lighting System
Operating Instructions and Parts Manual
b. Attach light/bracket assemblies to
the threaded inserts in top of float,
using bolts (3) and lockwashers (4).
(Install in alternating inserts if 6
inserts are present in float.)
c. Adjust lights to provide desired
illumination. (See Fig 1).
d. Tighten all bolts & screws until
seated.
e. Determine required cable length.
Splice additional cable up to 250
feet total cable length using
included heat shrink splice kit. Use
18 AWG SOOW or larger cable
only. DO NOT EXCEED maximum
cable length or use smaller cable
than specified, as system damage
may occur.
f. Attach light system cord to
fountain system cord with
included nylon wire tie.
Never enter the water either
wading, swimming or in a
boat with the pump power on, as this
may result in severe electrical shock.
3. Only install this system in ponds
where no swimming, wading,
boating or fishing is allowed.
Disconnect power to system before
fishing or entering the water.
4. Post appropriate warning signs per
local and state codes.
5. Place power cord so that it rests on
bottom of pond away from sharp
rocks or vegetation so it can be easily
removed without being damaged or
becoming entangled. Leave enough
slack to accommodate anticipated
water level fluctuations.
NOTE: It is suggested that the
underwater power cables be installed
in conduit from the panel to 4 -5 ft into
the water to prevent possible cable
damage.
6. Before connecting the unit to the
control center, check to insure there
is no leakage to ground. This can
be done by using an ohm meter
and setting the scale to its highest
setting (i.e. Rx100K). Connect one
ohmmeter lead to the unit power
cord ground and to one of the
power conductors. It should read
infinite or at least 2 mega ohms.
Repeat with the other conductor. If
reading is below 2 mega ohms on
either conductor contact Customer
Service Help Line at 1-800-742-5044.
"NO SWIMMING” AND OR
WARNING SIGNS SHOULD BE
POSTED PER STATE AND LOCAL CODES.
Water leaving
nozzle is at high
velocity and can cause bodily injury if
contact is made.
Always use caution when
operating electrical controls
in damp areas. If possible, avoid all
contact with electrical equipment
during thunderstorms or extreme
damp conditions.
7. Connect Nightbright lighting system
to control center. (See Fig 2).
8. All work must be done in
compliance with local and national
electrical codes by licensed,
qualified electrician. Refer to Fig. 2
in these instructions or on inside of
panel door for proper wiring.
9. Always keep control center door
closed and locked when not
servicing.
10. Have a licensed, qualified
electrician make final connections
of Nightbright lighting system to
system control center.
11. Have a licensed, qualified electrician
make connection to power source.
12. Apply power to unit and set timers
as described in the Setting Timers
section.
13. Test the ground fault interrupter
(GFI) for proper operation by
depressing the “test” button. The
fountain and lights should shut off.
Press the “reset” button to restart
the system. If pressing the “test”
button does not stop the unit,
immediately shut off power to unit
and contact Customer Service Help
Line at 1-800-742-5044.

FAILURE TO CONNECT THIS
UNIT, WITH THE GFI, TO A
PROPERLY GROUNDED POWER SUPPLY
MAY RESULT IN SEVERE ELECTRICAL
SHOCK.
Setting timer

off) stored below the dial, are
included with each timer for
setting up to 3 on-off time zones.
b) Install the red tripper at the
desired on time and the white
tripper at the desired off time.
c) Rotate the dial clockwise to verify
operation of the trippers.
d) The timer may be overridden by
turning the small on/off dial in
the upper right hand corner of
the timer. Timer will automatically
reset when next time zone occurs
unless manual override was set
within 1 hour of on or off cycle.
