11. Do not install any l amps closer than 6 inches (15.25cm) f r om any curtain or similar combustible material.
12. Turn off electrical power before modifying the light system in anyway.
13. Use minimum 20 spacing between stanchions when using 7 stanchions .
14. For use with EC series line voltage flexible track system only. Do not cut any tra ck sections.
15. CAUTION To reduce the risk of a burn during relamping, remove from the track before relamping.
16. This track system is to be supplied by a single branch 120 volt circuit.
17. Disconnect electrical power before adding to or changing the configuratio n of the track.

flexibility in creating an attractive lighting system for your
room. The 12 track can be mounted in an infinite
combination of curves and straight runs. The adjustable track
heads can be mounted anywhere along the track run.
INSTALL CEILING SUPPORTS
Method 1:
1. Remove support stems from stanchions.
2. Lay out your track design and mark the p osition for each
stanchion. Evenly space stanchions so that they form
desired pattern. (Use minimum 20 spacing between
stanchions when using 7 stanchions .)
3. Drill hole s in the ceiling at desired stanchion location by
electrical drill. (Note: Please use diameter 6mm drill bit)
4. Install enclosed screw anchors into drilled hole s.
5. Insert the stanchion screws to s ecure stanchion s to the
ceiling.
6. Screw the support stems into the stanchions , and then
install the track mounting brackets to the support stems
as shown in the figure.
Method 2: (As shown in diagram)
1. Repeat step 1,2 of method 1.
2. Drill 5/8 inches (16mm) holes in the ce iling at desired
stanchion location.
3. Push toggle bolts into the holes drilled into the ceiling
and tighten toggle bolts until the stanchion and
decorative ring secured.
4. Repeat step 6 of method1.
INSTALL TRACK
1. Remove the retaining cap on the power connector .
