GENERAL
1. To ensure the success of the fixture installation, the following instructions and diagram(s)
should be read and understood.
2. All electrical connections must be made in accordance with the National Electric code and
local codes and ordinances. If you are uncertain of the methods of installing electrical wiring
and lighting fixtures secure the services of a qualified licensed electrician.
TOOLS NEEDED
Blade screwdriver, phillips screwdriver, slip joint pliers or small adjustable wrench, wire
cutter/stripper, electrical current tester, stepladder and electrical tape.
INSTALLATION PREPARATION
1. TURN OFF THE ENTIRE ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT TO WHICH THE
LIGHTING FIXTURE IS TO BE ATTACHED. Turn circuit breaker to the “off” position
or completely remove the fuse controlling the circuit.
2. If an existing fixture is being replaced, remove it and note to which of the wires in the
outlet box the fixture was attached. DO NOT SEPARATE MULTIPLE TWISTED
WIRES THAT MAY BE IN THE BOX. DO NOT DAMAGE THE INSULATION
OF OLDER WIRING. In regular circumstances the BLACK wire will be the “Hot” lead and
the WHITE wire will be the “Neutral” or “Common” lead. A GREEN or BARE COPPER wire
is the “Ground”. In older buildings it is always good practice to reconfirm the polarity of the
wiring.
3. This fixture is designed to be mounted on an octagon box. The box must be securely
mounted to the structure of the building.
