Before beginning installation, ensure the power supply is turned off. If new wiring is required, consult a qualified electrician or local authorities for code requirements. Always read the provided wiring and grounding instructions (I.S. 18) thoroughly.
Mounting the Fixture
- Find a clear area in which you can work.
- Attach the mounting strap (A) to the junction box (J) using two screws (C). Ensure the holes in the strap align with the holes in the backplate (E).
- Make all necessary wiring connections as described in the wiring section.
- Mount the fixture to the ceiling by aligning it with the mounting screws (B) on the backplate (E).
- Secure the fixture in place by tightening the two ball knobs (F) onto the ends of the mounting screws (B).
Glass Installation
- Remove the four screws (S) located on the bottom of the fixture cage (P).
- Remove the bottom of the cage (P).
- Slide the four glass panels (G) into the fixture cage (Z).
- Replace the bottom of the cage (P) and secure it with the four screws (S).
- The fixture is now ready to be lamped and powered on.
Wiring and Grounding
Indoor Fixtures: Connect the positive supply wire (A) to the positive fixture lead (B) and the negative supply wire (C) to the negative fixture lead (D) using appropriately sized twist-on connectors.
Outdoor Fixtures: Follow the same wiring procedure as indoor fixtures. Additionally, cover the open end of the connectors with silicone sealant to form a watertight seal. If installing on a wall, use caulk to seal gaps between the fixture mounting plate and the wall to prevent water from entering the outlet box.
Grounding: Fasten the fixture ground wire (E) to the mounting strap (M) using the ground screw (S). For chain-hung fixtures, loop the ground wire under the head of the ground screw and connect the loose end directly to the building system ground wire.
