MOUNTING AND WIRING INSTRUCTIONS
FIXTURE ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION: For fixtures labeled for outdoor and wet location use, provide a water-tight seal
between the fixture and the mounting surface by using silicone or similar caulking.
NOTE: Underwriters Laboratories (UL) does not require all fixtures to have ground wires. These
fixtures meet all UL specifications.
1. Turn off power at circuit box to avoid possible electric shock.
NOTE: If post does not have mounting holes, follow step 2. Otherwise, skip step 2 and proceed
with step 3.
2. Place fitter (A) over post (B). Mark post (B) using fitter holes as a guide. Remove fitter (A),
drill 1/8” hole through post (B) at each mark (see fig. 1).
3. Pull wires up from post (B) and thread through fitter (A).
4. Identify color coding of fixture wires (see fig. 2).
5. To connect wires, take black fixture wire (group A from fig. 2) and place evenly against
black post wire. Do not twist wires.
6. Fit wire connector (C from fig. 1) over wires and twist until there is a firm connection. If
wire connector (C) easily comes off, reattach and check again for a firm connection.
7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 with the white (group B from fig. 2) fixture wires and post (B) wires.
8. Place ground wire from fixture evenly against ground wire (metal or green wire) from post (B).
9. Repeat step 6 for ground wires.
1. Place fitter (A) over post (B) (see fig. 1).
2. Secure with screws (D).
3. Remove set screw(s) (E) from fixture cover (F) and separate from fixture body (G)
(if applicable).
4. Thread nipple (H) into finial (I) and place rubber washer (J) onto nipple (H), then place
finial (I) into fixture cover (F) if applicable.
5. Install lamp(s). Do not exceed recommended wattage.
6. Place fixture cover (F) on top of fixture body (G) and secure with set screws (E).
