To change a lens, lens gasket, or bulb, the only tool you
will need is some type of 7/16" socket or wrench. If you are
changing a socket, you will need some wire cutters, wire
strippers and some wire nuts.
Place the 7/16" socket or wrench onto the head of the
bolt. Turn the bolt "counterclockwise" until the bolt is
completely removed from the flange.
Continue removing all of the bolts (six total)
all the way around the the light. When removing the last
bolt you may find it necessary to hold up on the opposing
side of the flange so the bolt does not bind up.
With all of the bolts removed, the bottom flange will
separate from the top flange. You will notice that four of
the bolts are slightly longer than the other two. The longer
bolts are for use with the stainless steel rock guard.
Upon closer inspection, you will notice that the
top flange does not have any threads for the bolts. The bolt
holes allow the bolts to slide freely through the holes.
In the bottom flange you will notice that all of
the holes are threaded in order to receive the bolts. The
two small tabs on the bottom flange are used to attach the
light to the base and yoke assembly or other type of
mounting hardware.
With all of the bolts removed, you can lift the
top flange off of the fountain light. This will expose the
"Red Silicone Lens Gasket" which surrounds the lens.
