PREPARE FIXTURE FOR INSTALLATION

Open latches (4) by pressing outward to disengage from diffuser (2). Remove Diffuser (2).
Open wireway cover (3) by removing the four screws (6) w/ a phillips head screw driver.
Remove fixture components and parts pack(s). Check that all parts are included. See Fig 1.
Disassemble conduit fitting (5) installed on end of Fixture Housing (1).
FLUSH MOUNT (CEILING/WALL)
If mounting to a metal surface- additional hardware will need to be purchased.
Locate the two screw boss locations on inside of fixture housing (see fig 2). Drill 3/16” holes through the center of each boss.
Mark location for two mounting holes 20″ apart on mount- ing surface and drill 3/32″ pilot holes.
If drill encounters ceiling joist, drill 3/32″ pilot holes in joist for mounting with 1½” wood screws.
First place a metal flat washer (10) onto 1½” screw (8). Then place a rubber washer (11) onto wood screw (8). Insert 1½” wood screw (8) through hole in plastic housing (1). The rubber washer (11) should be against the inside for plastic housing (1) when installed correctly. See Fig. 3. Tighten screws to secure fixture. (Do not over tighten screws- could damage housing)
If drill does not encounter ceiling joist, drill a 1/2″ hole in mounting surface for mounting with toggle nut and 3″ screw. First, place a metal flat washer (10) onto 3″ screw (9). Then, place a rubber washer (11) onto the 3″ screw. Insert screw through hole in plastic housing (1). The rubber washer (11)
should be against the inside of plastic housing (1) when installed correctly. See Fig. 4 Screw toggle nut onto 3″ screw approx. 1/4″. Push toggle nut into pre-drilled hole. Push screw into hole until toggle expands. See Fig. 4. Tighten screw to secure fixture. (Do not over tighten screwscould damage housing)

If drill does not encounter ceiling joist, drill a 1/2″ hole in mounting surface for mounting with toggle nut and 3″ screw.

Screw toggle nut onto 3″ screw approx. 1/4″. Push toggle nut into pre-drilled hole. Push screw into hole until toggle expands. See Fig. 4. Tighten screw to secure fixture. (Do not over tighten screwscould damage housing

WIRING AND FIXTURE OPERATION
CAUTION: Connect fixture to supply wires rated for at least 90°C (194°F). Do not use fixture on dimming circuits.
NOTE: 3/8” Waterproof conduit required for use with supplied watertight fitting
Locate components removed from fitting (5).
Insert the locknut onto the watertight conduit.- See Fig 5
Insert the sealing ring onto the conduit with the tapered end toward the end of the conduit. Insert the metal cone into the end of the conduit. See Fig 5
Feed incoming power cord though conduit into fixture. Make sure enough wire is fed into fixture to reach center of fixture. See Fig. 6
Insert conduit assembly into fitting installed on end of fixture. Securely tighten locknut onto fitting. See Fig 7
With chain and hook assemblies (11) supplied, suspend wire way cover (3) from housing (1) to support cover during wire connections.- See Fig 8
Make wire connections by connecting bare copper or green supply wire to both green fixture wires with wirenut (7). Connect black supply wire to black fixture wire and white supply wire to white fixture wire with wirenut.
For proper connection- place wirenut over wires, twist clockwise until tight.
Bundle wires together and position inside wire way.
Remove chain and hook assembly (11) and position wireway cover onto fixture opening making sure wires are not pinched between housing and cover. Secure with four screws.
To install lens (2)- position lens onto fixture housing (1). Edge of lens should be positioned in gasket area on the perimeter of housing. Slide latches (4) over edge of lens. When latch is fully engaged it will produce a “snap” sound. Repeat for all remaining latches.
Installation is complete. Turn on electricity at fuse or circuit breaker box. Before cleaning- turn off power. For best results, plastic panels should be washed with soap or mild detergent. Rinse with clear water and allow to air dry.
