This document provides installation and wiring instructions for the Hinkley Edgewater Wall Mount (Item No: 1670). Before beginning, ensure the power supply is turned off. The installation requires basic tools and, for outdoor applications, a high-quality waterproof caulk or silicone sealant (not included).
Assembly Instructions
- Find a clear area to work and unpack the fixture and glass.
- Prepare the mounting strap: Thread the two 1 1/4" mounting screws (B) into the back of the gull wing bracket (see Drawing 1). Ensure the screw spacing matches the holes (D) in the fixture backplate (E).
- Attach the strap: Secure the mounting strap (A) to the junction box (J) using the two 1" screws (C) provided.
- Mount the fixture: Slide the holes (D) in the backplate (E) over the screws (B) on the mounting strap.
- Secure: Thread the ball knobs (F) onto the screws to lock the fixture against the wall.
Wiring Instructions
Refer to the I.S. 18 wiring instructions provided in the manual for specific grounding procedures.
- 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 connection steps as indoor fixtures. Additionally, cover the open ends of the connectors with silicone sealant to create a watertight seal.
Caulking and Weatherproofing
To prevent water from entering the outlet box, proper sealing is required for outdoor installations:
- Backplate: After securing the fixture, seal the gap between the wall and the fixture backplate on the top and both sides using waterproof caulk or silicone sealant.
- Ball Knobs: It is recommended to apply a small bead of caulk or sealant under the ball knobs used to mount the fixture.
Maintenance
The side door (W) can be opened to re-lamp the fixture. When installing the fixture, slide the candle sleeves (Z) over the sockets.
