- Identify your installation type (Flush or Pendant) and follow the corresponding steps.
Flush Mount Installation

- Review the flush mount diagram. Attach the round mounting strap (B) to the junction box using mounting screws (D).
- Ensure mounting screws (A) are vertical and aligned with the canopy (F) holes.
- Assemble the socket cluster (R) by passing wires through rod (N) and twisting it into the post (V). Attach side rods (M) to the hooks (O) on the fixture body.
- Have an assistant hold the canopy while you attach the side rods (N) to the canopy hooks (F).
- Connect wires as described in the wiring section.
- Raise the canopy (F) to the ceiling and secure it with decorative nuts (G).
Pendant Installation
- Review the pendant diagram. Attach the rectangular mounting strap (A) to the junction box using mounting screws (B).
- Adjust the nipple (F) and canopy loop (H) to the desired height.
- Assemble the socket cluster (R) and attach side rods (M) as described in the flush mount steps.
- Measure and determine the correct number of chain links (J) needed. Use chain connectors (K) to attach the chain to the top loop (L) and canopy loop (H).
- Feed wires through the chain and top loop (L).
- Connect wires as described in the wiring section.
- Raise the canopy (G) to the ceiling and secure it by tightening the canopy loop collar (I).
