Installation Steps

1. Carefully pull house wires out of junction box so they are easily accessible during installation.

2. Position mounting bracket (A) so threaded ends of attached fixture mounting screws (E) are facing down towards floor.

3. Carefully pull house wires through hole in center of mounting bracket (A).

4. Align holes in mounting bracket (A) with holes in junction box.

5. Thread each junction box screw (B) into holes in mounting bracket (A) and into hole in junction box. Tighten junction box screws (B) to secure mounting bracket (A) to junction box. CAUTION: Make sure house wires are pulled completely through hole in mounting bracket. DO NOT pinch wires between mounting bracket and ceiling.
