Step-by-Step Instructions

In the box, you will find two identical, black mounting plates, a black foam pad with sticky tape on one side, screws, and 2 wall anchors.

Attach One of the Mounting Plates to the Back of the Strobe Light

1. Flip the strobe light over, face down on the table.
2. Take one of the black mounting plates, smooth side down, and feed the strobe wire through the hole in the mounting plate.
3. Align the small screw holes on the mounting plate to the screw holes on the back of the strobe light.
4. Using the small screws, tighten the mounting bracket to the back of the strobe light.

Attach the Foam Pad and One of the Mounting Plates to the Wall

1. Pick up the foam pad. Two small holes on each side allow the larger screws to attach the foam piece to the wall (or another mounting surface).
2. Place the foam piece on the wall where you want to mount the strobe. Make sure the cut-out notch faces down.
3. Remove the sticker backing and place the foam pad on the wall. Do not insert the screws yet.
4. Take the second mounting plate, smooth side facing up, and feed the strobe wiring through the middle opening.
5. Align the larger holes in the mounting plate with the two holes in the foam pad.
6. Insert and tighten the screws through the mounting plate into the pad and wall.
7. Pull the slack out of the wire, feeding it behind the mounting plate and through the cut-out part of the foam pad.
8. Insert and twist the two mounting plates together until they snap together.
