Setup and Installation

Professional installation is recommended if you are not familiar with electrical wiring.

3. Attach Mounting Strap: Secure the mounting strap to the junction box using the provided screws.
4. Adjust Hanging Height: Determine the desired hanging height. The fixture includes a 5-foot chain, allowing for an adjustable hanging length up to 83 inches. Adjust the chain length by removing links as needed. Feed the electrical wires through the chain and canopy.
5. Wire Connections:
   • Connect the fixture's bare copper ground wire to the house ground wire (usually bare copper or green) using a wire nut.

   • Ensure all wire connections are secure and tucked neatly into the junction box.
6. Secure Canopy: Carefully push the canopy up to the ceiling, covering the junction box, and secure it with the provided screws or nuts.
7. Install Bulbs: Screw six candelabra base (E12) bulbs (max 60W each, not included) into the sockets. Do not overtighten.

Operating Instructions

Once installed and powered, the Weyburn chandelier operates via a standard wall switch. If connected to a compatible dimmer switch, the light output can be adjusted.

• Power On/Off: Use the wall switch connected to the fixture to turn the chandelier on or off.
