Before you begin: Ensure the power is OFF at the circuit breaker. Read all instructions carefully.

  1. Prepare the Installation Area:

    Locate the desired mounting position for the track. Ensure it is a structurally sound surface capable of supporting the fixture's weight. Mark the mounting points for the track rail.

  3. Wire the Track:

    Connect the track's power feed to the junction box wiring. Follow standard electrical wiring procedures: connect live to live (black to black), neutral to neutral (white to white), and ground to ground (green or bare copper to green or bare copper). Ensure all connections are secure with wire nuts.

  4. Install Track Head:

    Align the track head adapter with the track rail. Insert the adapter into the track and twist to lock it into place. Ensure the contact points on the track head align correctly with the conductors inside the track rail. You should hear a click when it's securely seated.
