A.
To locate, hold channel (5) up to ceiling with power supply knockout (4) located over entryway for power supply wires.
Mark the locations of the mounting holes on the ceiling. Take the channel down and punch a small hole into the ceiling at
each location using a nail or an awl to see if there is a wood joist. If there is a joist use a suitable wood screw (not included)
to mount the channel. Where there is no joist to screw into use a ¼” toggle bolt (not included) of suitable length to mount
channel (5) securely to the ceiling. Proceed to step 2.B. before final mounting.
B.
Feed the black and white supply wires, and the green ground wire into the fixture through open knockout hole. At this time
you can finish mounting the fixture to the ceiling.
3. Wiring.
Caution: Make sure power is off at fuse or circuit breaker box. Check power wires for damage or scrapes. If power supply wires
are within three inches of ballast use wire suitable for at least 90C (194F). Note: Most dwellings built before 1985 have supply
wire rated to 60C. Consult a qualified electrician before installing.
A.
This unit will not operate properly unless connected to a “grounded” electrical circuit. Electrical shock, over heating, low or
no light output, and shortened lamp life can result if proper grounding is not done. Securely attach green (or green and
yellow) wire to provided green ground screw.
B.
Using wire connectors (not provided), connect white supply wire to white ballast lead. Connect black hot supply wire to
black ballast lead. Do not mix wires. Pull on each wire lead to make sure connections are secure. Make certain no bare wires
are exposed outside of wire connectors. All splice connections are to be inside the junction box.
C.
Replace ballast cover (1) by placing one edge of ballast cover into dimples (2), swing upward, press cover allowing second
edge to catch second set of dimples and lock in place. Make sure no wires become crimped between cover (1) and channel
(5).
4.
Lamps - Install appropriate lamps (not included) by inserting lamp pins into lamp holder. Rotate into place to seat lamp for proper
connection. Verify all lamp holders remain properly installed into the channel (5).
5.
Install diffuser (9) by hooking one edge onto channel (5) and swinging the other up and over the channel lip. Shift diffuser over
until it fits flush and appears straight.
6.
Restore power at fuse or circuit breaker box.
