FOR YOUR SAFETY WARNING: BE SURE THE ELECTRICITY TO THE WIRES YOU ARE WORKING
ON IS SHUT OFF; EITHER THE FUSE IS REMOVED OR THE CIRCUIT BREAKER IS SHUT OFF.
GENERAL You don’t need special tools to install this fixture. Be sure to follow the steps in the order given.
Under no circumstances should a fixture be hung on house electrical wires, nor should a swag type fixture be
installed on a ceiling which contains a radiant type heating system. Read instructions carefully. If you are unclear
as to how to proceed, consult a qualified electrician.
NOTE: Proper wiring is essential for the safe operation of this fixture.
HANGING THE FIXTURE (Fig. 1)
1. Shut off the power at the circuit breaker and remove
the old fixture, including the mounting hardware.
2. Carefully unpack your new fixture and lay out all the
parts on a clear area. Take care not to lose any small
parts necessary for installation.
3. Thread the 2 mounting screws (B) into the mounting
plate (C) spaced the same distance apart as the holes
in the fixture back plate. (You can adjust the length of
the screws if necessary.)
4. Attach the mounting plate (C) to the outlet box (A) (not
supplied) with mounting screws (D). GND must face
out.
CONNECTING THE WIRES (Fig. 2).
5. Connect the electrical wires as shown in Fig.2.Making
sure that all wire connectors are secured. If your outlet
box has a ground wire (green or bare copper), connect
the fixture’s ground wire to it. Otherwise, connect the
fixture’s ground wire directly to the circular strap using
the green screw provided.
COMPLETING THE INSTALLATION (Fig.1)
6. Align the fixture back plate (E) to mounting plate (C)
and secure with cap nuts (F).
7. Install the bulb (E26 Medium base, not included.) in
accordance with the fixture’s specification.
8. To prevent moisture from entering the outlet box and
causing a short, use clear caulking (i.e.
Indoor/Outdoor Silicone Sealant) to outline the outside
of fixture back plate where it meets the wall leaving a
space at bottom to allow moisture a means to escape.
