Mounting the Control Panel
1. Select a convenient mounting location for the control panel. Be sure you will have access to
the area behind the location, and that you will be able to drill holes there without damaging
existing wiring or structures. Do not place the control where it could interfere with the safe
operation of the vessel or vehicle. Avoid mounting the control panel on a curved surface, or
flat on its back in a location that would be exposed to direct rain or spray.
2. Use the small foam gasket included in the box as a template to mark the location of the
holes to be drilled. Drill two 3/16” (5mm) holes for the mounting screws and one ½” (13mm)
hole in center through the mounting surface as shown in sketch below (not to scale), make
sure that the holes are horizontal to each other.

3.
Feed all of the Control Panel wires through the center hole of the small gasket, then place
the gasket underneath the control through the two threaded mounts.
Feed all the control wires through the ½” (13mm) drilled hole of mounting surface, a
small
amount of a non-silicone sealant, (such as StarBrite
Boat Caulk #83801) can be applied
where the wires penetrate the mounting surface.
Fasten the control onto mounting surface using the provided two flat fender washers and
lock nuts. Tighten the nuts enough to slightly compress the small gasket.
Electrical Connections
The Guest Model 503 spot/flood light has two types of wiring connections.
They are:
•
Power supply wires
- the larger red (

) and black (

)
wires that bring 12 volts DC power to
the spot/flood light and to the control panel.
