BOTTOM GLASS INTALLATION:
After unpacking the 8" LED Decorative Stemlight, attach the
bottom glass to the fixture. Unpack the floating glass and
attach to the bottom of the frame using the (4) floating ring
attachment mechanisms: slide the spacer over the tab of
the center collar Philip head screws and attach the glass.
Lock the glass in place with the (4) knurled nuts. (Figure 1)

CANOPY INSTALLATION:
Prior to installation, ensure a 4" Round or Square (with a
Round-to-Square Junction Box Cover Plate) Junction Box is
properly mounted to the ceiling structure.
Loosen the (2) Philips screws that hold the Top Mounting
Plate to the round canopy. Attach the top mounting plate to
the junction box or junction box cover.
Connect the primary leads from the junction box to the
primary leads of the LED Driver (Black-to-Black, White-to-
White) on the LED Driver Supply side. Connect the Green to
the Ground wire within the top mounting canopy.
Carefully tuck excess wires and connectors in Junction Box
while positioning the driver in the top mounting plate,
secure by attaching the Driver Support Bracket. (Figure 2)
FLEXIBLE CORD INSTALLATION:
Determine the length of flexible cord required.
If cutting is required, loosen the coiled 18-3 cable. Leave
only 6-8" for wiring available.
Mark the cable where it needs to be cut. Carefully score the
outer jacket around the diameter of the cable about 6-8"
below the total length. Score the outer jacket lengthwise for
that 6-8" section. Use proper rotary cable slitters such as
Ideal #45-128 or Eclipse #200-009. Remove the outer
jacket. Trim off the individual wire insulations by 1/2".
Install the internal two-piece cable strain relief. Tighten the
(2) plastic straight blade screws in order to hold the cord to
the ballast housing safely. (Figure 3)
There should not be any excess flexible cord in the
driver compartment/top mounting canopy. Per UL1598
and NEC 300.14, “at least 150mm (6in.) of free conductors
and less than 8 in., measure from the point in the box where
it emerges from its raceway or cable sheath shall be left at
each outlet, junction and switch point for splices or the
connector of luminaires or devices”.
RIGID STEM INSTALLATION:
The Rigid Stem Canopy with swivel is designed for sloped
ceiling applications. Determine the length of the stem with
external couplings required.
Loosen the (2) 3.0mm steel hex head screws from the
cable connector. Remove the inner grommet. Slide the
stems over the flexible cord. Screw rigid stem into the
cable connector and tighten the (2) 3.0mm steel hex head
screws. (Figure 4) Add couplings to the stem (if required).
Determine the length of flexible cord required, and follow
the Flexible Cord Installation Instructions for the balance of
the installation.
