ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION
1. Thread both hex nuts (5) several turns onto each end of the nipple (4). Screw the end of the nipple
(4) several turns into the threaded hole of the mounting bracket (2) but do not tighten the hex nuts
(5). Pull the supply wires (9 & 11) and the supply ground wire (8) out from the outlet box (1). Attach
the mounting bracket (2) assembly to the outlet box (1) using the slotted holes of the mounting
bracket (2) and the mounting screws (3).
2. Thread the screw collar loop (6) onto the bottom end of the nipple (4). Place the canopy (15) over
the outlet box (1) and adjust the screw collar loop (6) and nipple (4) until the midpoint of the outside
threads on the screw collar loop (6) is center-aligned with the canopy (15). Remove the canopy (15)
and tighten both hex nuts (5) down on the mounting bracket (2) and the screw collar loop (6).
3. Open up the end links of the chain (17) and attach one end of the chain (17) onto the fixture loop
(18). Slide the threaded ring (16) and the canopy (15) onto the chain (17) (in that order) and attach
the other end of the chain (17) to the screw collar loop (6). Close the ends of the chain links.
4. Unravel the fixture wires (10 & 12) and fixture ground wire (7) and thread them through every other
link of the chain (17) starting with the chain link attached to the fixture loop (18). Feed the fixture
wires (10 & 12) and fixture ground wire (7) through the screw collar loop (6) and nipple (4). Pull the
fixture wires (10 & 12) and the fixture ground wire (7) upward to remove any excess slack.
5. Connect the black supply wire (9) to the smooth fixture wire (10) using a wire nut (13). Connect the
white supply wire (11) to the ribbed fixture wire (12) using a wire nut (13). Loop the fixture ground
wire (7) around the ground screw (14) of the mounting bracket (2) [Be sure to provide an extra 3
length of fixture ground wire (7) to the ground screw (14)]. Connect the fixture ground wire (7) to
the supply ground wire (8) using a wire nut (13). Tuck all wire connections inside the outlet box (1).
6. Slide the canopy (15) and the threaded ring (16) up the chain (17). Place the canopy (15) over the
outlet box (1) and secure it in place by screwing the threaded ring (16) onto the screw collar loop
(6).
7. Slide the shade (20) over the socket assembly (21). Screw the socket rod (19) onto the socket
assembly (21).
8. Screw each light bulb into each socket and make sure the bulbs do not exceed the maximum wattage
