Mounting Instructions
start here
- Find a clear area in which you can work.
- Unpack fixture and glass from carton.
- Carefully review instructions prior to assembly.
*** The construction of this fixture will be accomplished by first attaching the mounting strap to the junction box, making all necessary electrical connections, mounting the fixture to the wall and then installing the glass. ***
Fixture Mounting
Diagram shows components for fixture mounting: Mounting strap (A), mounting screws (B), [junction box] (J), [back plate] (E), and [ball knobs] (F). Screw (C) is used to attach the strap to the [junction box].
- Prepare mounting strap (A) by threading the two 1 1/4" long [mounting screws] (B) into the back of the mounting strap (A) - see Drawing 1.
- Be sure the holes into which the screws are threaded match the spacing of holes (D) in the [back plate] (E).
- Attach mounting strap (A) to [junction box] (J) using two 1" screws (C) not provided.
- To mount fixture, slip the two [mounting screws] (B) through the two mounting holes (D) in the [back plate] (E) - see Drawing 1.
- While holding fixture in place, thread the two [ball knobs] (F) on to the end of the [mounting screws] (B), and tighten.
Glass Installation
Diagram shows components for glass installation: [Socket] (1), [glass shade] (2), and [socket ring] (3).
- To install glass, remove [socket ring] (3) from the [socket] (1) - see Drawing 2.
- Slip [glass shade] (2) over [socket] (1).
- Thread [socket ring] (3) onto [socket] (1) and tighten.
- Repeat steps 1-3 for remaining glass.
- Fixture can now be lamped accordingly.
⚠️ SAFETY WARNING: READ WIRING AND GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS (I.S. 18) AND ANY ADDITIONAL DIRECTIONS. TURN POWER SUPPLY OFF DURING INSTALLATION. IF NEW WIRING IS REQUIRED, CONSULT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN OR LOCAL AUTHORITIES FOR CODE REQUIREMENTS.
Make electrical connections from supply wire to fixture lead wires. Refer to instruction sheet (I.S. 18) and follow all instructions to make all necessary wiring connections. Then refer back to this sheet to continue installation of this fixture.
Wiring and Grounding Instructions (I.S. 18)
Wiring Instructions
Indoor Fixtures
- Connect positive supply wire (A) (typically black or the smooth, unmarked side of the two-conductor cord) to positive fixture lead (B) with appropriately sized [twist-on connectors] - see Drawings 1 or 2.
- Connect negative supply wire (C) (typically white or the ribbed, marked side of the two-conductor cord) to negative fixture lead (D).
- Please refer to the grounding instructions below to complete all electrical connections.
Outdoor Fixtures
- Connect positive supply wire (A) (typically black or the smooth unmarked side of the two-conductor cord) to positive fixture lead (B) with appropriately sized [twist-on connectors] -- see Drawings 2 or 3.
- Connect negative supply wire (C) (typically white or the ribbed, marked side of the two-conductor cord) to negative fixture lead (D).
- Cover open end of connectors with silicone sealant to form a watertight seal. If installing a wall mount fixture, use caulk to seal gaps between the fixture mounting plate (backplate) and the wall. This will help prevent water from entering the outlet box. If the wall surface is lap siding, use caulk and a fixture mounting platform specially.
- Please refer to the grounding instructions below to complete all electrical connections.
Grounding Instructions
Flush Mount Fixtures
For positive grounding in a 3-wire electrical system, fasten the [fixture ground wire] (E) (typically copper or green plastic coated) to the [mounting strap] (M) with the [ground screw] (S) - see Drawing 1.
Diagrams illustrate electrical wiring connections for flush mount fixtures. Key components include supply wires (A - positive, C - negative), fixture leads (B - positive, D - negative), [twist-on connectors], [mounting strap] (M), and [ground screw] (S).
Chain Hung Fixtures
Loop [fixture ground wire] (E) (typically copper or green plastic coated) under the head of the [ground screw] (S) on [mounting strap] (M) and connect to the loose end of the [fixture ground wire] directly to the ground wire of the building system with appropriately sized [twist-on connectors] - see Drawing 2.
Diagrams illustrate electrical wiring connections for chain hung fixtures. Key components include supply wires (A - positive, C - negative), fixture leads (B - positive, D - negative), [twist-on connectors], [mounting strap] (M), and [ground screw] (S).
Post-Mount Fixtures
Connect [fixture ground wire] (E) (typically copper or green plastic coated) to power supply ground with appropriately sized [twist-on connector] inside post. Cover open end of connector with silicone sealant to form a watertight seal - see Drawing 3.
Diagrams illustrate electrical wiring connections for post-mount fixtures. Key components include supply wires (A - positive, C - negative), fixture leads (B - positive, D - negative), [twist-on connectors], [mounting strap] (M), and [ground screw] (S).
