INCLUDED IN THIS KIT

Included in this kit:

1 x Pre-Assembled Quick-Connect Plug Assembly

1 x Female Screw Plug Terminal, with screws

1 x Evo2 LED Pool Light

1 x Screw Kit (to mount Evo2 Light onto

Dress Ring)

1 x Spare Seal (RED)

The tools you will need:

Phillips Head Screwdriver (small #1)

Pliers or Sidecutters

Wire-Stripping tool

Multi-Grips or Shifting Spanner

Read the entire Instruction Sheet before starting the installation process.

Before Starting:

The Quick-Connect Plug Kit is supplied pre-assembled with a WHITE Seal. The WHITE seal is used only when connecting to original Aqua-Star Grey Coloured Cable (1.5mm

2 ). This cable has an outside diameter of approx

7.5mm.

If you are attaching the Quick-Connect Plug Kit to Evo2 Black Coloured Cable (1mm²), then a RED seal is required instead of the WHITE seal. This RED seal is supplied loose in the kit. Loosen the #128 Cable Nut, remove the

WHITE Seal and fit the RED Seal.

Step 1. Strip the end of the existing Grey Cable or Black Cable as follows –

FOR GREY CABLE ONLY:

Expose 7mm of Copper Wire.

Step 2. Slide cable into rear of preassembled

Quick-Connect Plug Assembly so that the cable end sits approx 100mm from end of plug.

You may have to loosen #128 Nut to enable cable to slide through.

Step 4. Slide #119 Female Plug into #120

Connector Housing, be sure to align the keyway on

#119 Female Plug with keyway on the inside of the

#120 Connector Housing.

Step 5. Push #119 Female Plug all the way into #120

Connector Housing. Please ensure it pushes all the way into the “tongue and groove” keyway, so that the end of

#119 Female Plug finishes flush with end of #120

Connector Housing.

Step 6. Tighten #128 Cable Nut on the cable. This must be done tight enough to ensure the Quick-Connect Plug will not leak. You will need to hold the hexagonal area on the #120

Connector Housing with multi-grips or shifting spanner in order to tighten the 128 Cable Nut tightly.

Ensure that the #125 Washer remains “clipped in” the #128

Cable Nut when tightening. This will ensure the #126 Seal is compressed effectively.

Keyway aligned, then push
