INSTALL & OPERATION MANUAL 

 

 
 

Preparing the Hull 

 

OceanLED recommends using a qualified installer / technician when making  modifications to your vessel. 
Please also consult the manufacturer for more detail on modifications and installation. 
 
OceanLED recommends use of provided screws: No.6 (3.5mm) x 1 inch (25mm) Pozi Self Tapping Pan Head 
Screws - Stainless Steel.  If alternative screws are used, do not use counter sunk or non-flat shoulder screws 
to secure your lights to the hull (failure to do so will invalidate your warranty). 
 

 

 

OceanLED  does  not  recommend  using  the  stainless  steel  bezel  on  conductive  hulls  (e.g.,  carbon  fibre, 
aluminium/steel).  
 
If the lights (with plastic bezel) are to be fitted to a conductive hull or any other metal surface/ outboard jet 
bracket, Isolating Mounting Kit must be used. Please contact OceanLED for additional details. 
 

Isolating Mounting Kit 

 

 
4x M3.5 x 35mm Nylon Bolt 
4x Nylon Washer 
4x M3.5 Nylon Nut 
(1x spare of each component) 

 

Part Number:  

019913 - D3 and X-Series Isolating Mounting Kit

 

 

 

Depth/Spacing 

Ideally mount your lights at similar depth levels to ensure matching colour consistency through the water. Deeper lights 
will look duller and possibly differ in colour compared to shallower mounted units.
