Assembly Instructions

Remove the white caps from the LED Tube end without the single pin.
Slide the Magnetic center LED Tube Support (BB) over the open end of one of the LED tubes (AA) beyond the locking pin.
Insert the LED Tube Inter Connect (CC) in the semi-circle channel in the same open ends of the LED Tube.
Line up the LED Inter Connect (CC) and slide into the semi-circle channel on the open end of the other LED Tube (AA). Push LED Tubes together until locking pin lines with the holes in the LED Tube (AA) and lock in place.
Push down on the locking pin and slide the Magnetic Center LED Tube Support (BB) to the center position between both LED Tubes (AA).
Face the magnet inwards so it makes contact with the ballast cover once the lamp is installed. This will prevent sag in the middle of the LED tube (AA).
