Small Lamb Shephard and Resting Camel Set

Installation Guidelines

Before setting up your new holiday lighting, read through these guidelines thoroughly - they'll likely save you time and money.

Security measures

• Make sure you add the value of your displays to your property insurance

Electrical connections

• Take care with your electrical connections
• Use only outdoor, heavy duty cords.
• Only connect display together if the included instructions specifically dictate it.
• Never tape connectors together.
• Ensure the connections are fully seated.

Highly recommended

• Don't hammer your displays into the ground.
• If the ground is too hard, first make pilot holes.
• Do not move your display with the lights on -- this is especially true for C7 lights and rope lighting.
• If you have a staff installing these displays, make sure they are trained in proper use of guy wires and supports.

Reduce installation time

• Be sure to check to see if the lights are working before setting up the display.
• Organize your installation hardware with each item.
• You'll need a hex driver and a power drill to install the hinge bolts.
• To prevent overloads, keep the power consumption guide on hand for reference during installation.

Maintenance Guidelines

GFCIs and Moisture

• Rain trips GFCI quite easily, protect outlets from rain
• Wood blocks underneath displays prevent trips
• Avoid lightning prone mounts
• Check your guy wires after heavy winds or a storm
• GFCIs trip most often from thunderstorm moisture ' they prevent problems with the display, but need to be reset after tripping.

Take Down and Storage

Fix lights before storing

• Replace burned out bulbs or working bulbs will fail
• Store displays in their cartons or hang them
• Keep hardware, instructions and wire harnesses with each display
• Do not leave displays under exposed sun - they are designed for interior storage and 90 day use.
