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.
3. TOOLS NEEDED: Blade screwdriver, phillips screwdriver, slip joint
pliers or small adjustable wrench, wire cutter/stripper, electrical current
tester, stepladder and electrical tape. NOTE: The important safeguards
and instructions outlined on this sheet are not meant to cover all possible
conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood that
common sense, caution and care are factors that cannot be built into any
product. Caution and care must be supplied by the person(s) installing,
operating and maintaining this lighting fixture.
INSTALLATION PREPARATION
1. TURN OFF THE ENTIRE ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT TO WHICH THE
LIGHTING FIXTURE IS TO BE ATTACHED.
Move the appropriate 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
ANY OTHER 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 a standard round or octagon
box. The box must be securely mounted to the structure of the building.
FIXTURE INSTALLATION
1. Remove the fixture, shades and parts bag(s) from the carton. Before
discarding the carton, double check packing to make certain that all parts
are found.
2. Determine the overall desired length of the fixture. For general
convenience the fixture is shipped with the leads threaded through the
stems. If the stems are rearranged or additional stems are added, tape
the ends to a stiff wire (coat hanger) to aid in pulling them through the
stems.
3. (Starting at the back), thread the 2 longest screws into the crossbar.
(The green ground screw is the front). Attach the crossbar to the outlet
box. (The green screw should face the floor)
4. Thread the small hex nuts onto the screws. Adjust the screws so they
extend 3/16” beyond the canopy of the fixture. Lock the hex nuts against
the crossbar.
5. Fasten the ground wire to the green or bare copper wire in the outlet
box or to the green screw on the crossbar.
NEVER FASTEN THE
GROUND WIRE TO THE BLACK OR “HOT” WIRE! FAILURE TO
FOLLOW THIS INSTRUCTION COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY
OR DEATH!
