Cut the “LED Strip Light” to required length.*NB, make sure to cut the strip at the designated cut and solder points. Failure to do this correctly can cause the “LED Strip Light” to be faulty.
Manufacturing Process Mark and cut the “LED Linear Profile” including the diffuser/cover to required length using a miter block and hacksaw (sharp blade) or cutoff saw with aluminum blade. Remove the diffuser/cover and secure the end caps on either side of the profile.
Firmly clip in place the “Power Feed” accessory onto “LED Strip Light” end. *NB, always ensure that the polarity is correct: positive live (red) wire to positive solder pad and negative neutral (black) wire to negative solder pad.
