1. Loosen the spot lamp bracket clamp bolt.
2. Grasp the spot lamp.
Slowly rotate the spot lamp inboard until the shaft contacts the parkstop position.
3. Rotate the spot lamp slowly outboard to 5 degrees past the vertical position in order for the backstop to be in motion and the outer tube shaft to rotate.
4. Tighten the bracket clamp bolt sufficiently, in order to prevent the outer shaft tube from rotating while the spotlamp is moving between the stop positions.
5. Rotate the spot lamp head inboard to the parkstop position in order to prevent the spot lamp from coming in contact with the body components.
6. Position the parkstop of the shaft in order to rotate the spot lamp on its axis, clearing the nearest body components by 13-0.5 mm (0.50-0.02 in).
Notice: Refer to Fastener Notice in Cautions and Notices.
7. Tighten the bracket clamp screw when the parkstop has been set, in order to prevent rotation of the spot lamp shaft.
Tighten the spot lamp bracket clamp bolt to 6 N.m (53 lb in).
8. Adjust the spot lamp head clamping bolt, in order to easily rotate the spot lamp (120 degrees) in any adjustable position between the parkstop and the backstop positions.
The total motion of the spot lamp is approximately 90 degrees.
Tighten the spot lamp head clamping bolt to 2.5 N.m (22 lb in).
