GENERAL

1. To ensure the success of the fixture installation, the following instructions and

diagram(s) should be read and understood.

2. All electrical connections must be made in accordance with the National Electric

code and local codes and ordinances. If you are uncertain of the methods of

installing electrical wiring and lighting fixtures secure the services of a qualified

licensed electrician.

3. TOOLS NEEDED: Blade screwdriver, phillips screwdriver, slip joint pliers or

small adjustable wrench, wire cutter/stripper, electrical current tester, stepladder

and electrical tape. NOTE: The important safeguards and instructions outlined on

this sheet are not meant to cover all possible conditions and situations that may

occur. It must be understood that common sense, caution and care are factors that

cannot be built into any product. Caution and care must be supplied by the

person(s) installing, operating and maintaining this lighting fixture.

INSTALLATION PREPARATION

1. TURN OFF THE ENTIRE ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT TO WHICH THE LIGHTING

FIXTURE IS TO BE ATTACHED. Move the appropriate circuit breaker to the “off

position or completely remove the fuse controlling the circuit.

2. If an existing fixture is being replaced, remove it and note to which of the wires

in the outlet box the fixture was attached. DO NOT SEPARATE ANY OTHER

WIRES THAT MAY BE IN THE BOX. DO NOT DAMAGE THE INSULATION OF

OLDER WIRING. In regular circumstances the BLACK wire will be the “Hot” lead

and the WHITE wire will be the “Neutral” or “Common” lead. A GREEN or BARE

COPPER wire is the “Ground”. In older buildings it is always good practice to

reconfirm the polarity of the wiring.

3. This fixture is designed to be mounted on a standard round or octagon box. The

box must be securely mounted to the structure of the building.

FIXTURE INSTALLATION

1. Remove the fixture, shades and parts bag(s) from the carton. Before discarding

the carton, double check packing to make certain that all parts are found.

2. Assemble the center body, finial and loop to the fixture body. Attach the chain

to the loop.

3. Attach the crossbar to the outlet box. (The green screw should face the floor).

4. Remove the threaded ring from the screwcollar loop. Fully thread the loop onto

the nipple. Thread the hex nut onto the nipple and the nipple into the crossbar.

Place the canopy over the screwcollar loop and against the ceiling. Adjust the

nipple so that ¼” of threads on the screwcollar loop extend beyond the canopy.

Tighten the hex nut against the crossbar.

5. Open the end links of the chain and attach the chain to the screwcollar loop.

Close the top link of the chain. Hang the fixture on the chain at the desired height.

Remove the excess chain. Close the bottom link of the chain.

6. Unscrew the ring from the screwcollar loop. Let the ring and the canopy slide

down the chain to the top of the fixture. Thread the lead wire (first) through the ring

and then the canopy. Thread the wires up through alternating links of the chain to

the outlet box.

7. Measure 6” of lead wire beyond the end of the chain. Cur off the excess wire.

Strip the insulation off the ends of the leads exposing ½” of wire. Twist the strands

of wire together. Push the leads and ground wire up through the screwcollar loop

and nipple and into the outlet box.

8. Fasten the green fixture wire to the green or bare copper wire in the box or

fasten it to the mounting plate with green screw provided.

NEVER FASTEN THE GROUND WIRE TO THE BLACK OR “HOT” WIRE!

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS INSTRUCTION COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS

INJURY OR DEATH!

9. Fasten the white fixture wire to the white wire in the outlet box. Fasten the wires

to together with an approved fastener (wire nut).

Starting about 1” below the fastener, tightly wrap connection with electrical tape so

that the tape seals the end of the fastener.

Make sure that there is no exposed wire or strands that could cause a dangerous

short circuit !

10. Connect the smooth fixture lead to the black wire in the outlet box. Fasten the

joined wires as in step 9.

11. Slide the canopy and the screwcollar ring up the chain and secure the canopy to the ceiling.

12. Place the shade on the socket cover.

13. Install the light bulb(s).

NOTE: This fixture is rated for 60 watt type B, BA, C or CA lamp(s).

DO NOT EXCEED RECOMMENDED WATTAGE !

14. Restore power to circuit at breaker or fuse box.
