PREPARING FOR INSTALLATION

Carefully remove the new fixture from the carton as well as the yellow bag that holds all of the parts. See the important notes above. Shut off power at the circuit breaker and remove old fixture from wall, including the old mounting strap. THIS FIXTURE CAN BE INSTALLED AS A CHANDELIER OR AS A SEMI- FLUSH. FOR CHANDELIER INSTALLATION REFER TO THE DIAGRAM LABELED (1): 1. From the parts bag remove the mounting strap assembly (A). One end of nipple (F) should be attached to mounting strap (A) with hex nut (D) in place. The other end should have canopy loop (H) attached. Attach mounting strap (A) to the junction box using mounting screws (B) and a screwdriver. Tighten securely. 2. Unscrew canopy loop collar (I) from canopy loop (H). Pass canopy (G) over the mounted canopy loop to test the height. Approximately half of the canopy loop’s exterior threads should be exposed, and the canopy loop collar should fit snugly onto the canopy loop. Remove canopy (G) and adjust the height of nipple (F) and canopy loop (H) until the desired height is reached. FOR SEMI- FLUSH INSTALLATION REFER TO THE DIAGRAM LABELED (2): 1. Mounting strap (B) contains several threaded holes. Two sets of mounting screws (A & D) should be attached to mounting strap (B). You may need to tighten nuts (C) that hold mounting screws (A) in place. If the screws are not attached, please hold canopy (F) up to the mounting strap (B). Line up the holes in canopy (F) with the holes in mounting strap (B) and insert mounting screws (A) into mounting strap (B) so that mounting screws (A) protrude through the holes in canopy (F). Mounting screws (A) are long, so please test the canopy against the mounting strap to see how far you should insert the screws. Use hex nuts (C) to hold mounting screws (A) in place.

ASSEMBLING THE FIXTURE

FOR CHANDELIER INSTALLATION REFER TO THE DIAGRAM LABELED (1):
Measure to determine the correct number of chain links needed for proper hanging height. If necessary, use a pair of pliers to open and remove any excess chain. Attach one chain connector (K) to each end of chain (J). Attach one end of the chain/chain connector to top loop (L). Feed the fixture wires from the fixture body through post (N). Pull the wires until taut. Thread washer (M) onto post (N). Thread top loop (L) onto post (N). Attach the remaining end of the chain/chain connector to canopy loop (H). Close chain connectors (K) to secure. Feed fixture wires from nipple (N) through top loop (L), the chain (J) (every three links or so), canopy loop collar (I), canopy loop (H), and canopy (G). Pull the wires until taut. Gently slide canopy loop collar (I) and canopy (G) down onto the chain/wires. Trim the wires to the desired length plus 8 to 10 inches. FOR SEMI-FLUSH INSTALLATION REFER TO THE DIAGRAM LABELED (2): 2. Feed the fixture wires from the fixture body through post (H). Pull the wires until taut. Feed fixture wires from post (H) into canopy (F) until the wires come out of the top of canopy (F). Thread canopy (F) onto post (H) and fasten it. Pull the wires until taut. Trim the wires to the desired length plus 8 to 10 inches. 3. Have an assistant support the fixture’s weight. Attach mounting strap (B) to the junction box using mounting screws (D) and a screwdriver. Tighten the screws securely. Pull the house wires through the center of the mounting strap (B).

CONNECTING THE WIRES

Have an assistant support the fixture’s weight while completing the wiring. Refer to the wiring diagram and attach the fixture’s wires to the power supply wires from the junction box. Attach the fixture’s wires to the power supply wires from the junction box. Connect Hot to Hot (transparent wire with black inner thread, black, or smooth wire) Neutral to Neutral (transparent wire with white inner thread, white, or ribbed wire), and Ground to Ground (transparent wire with green inner thread, green wire, or copper). Twist the ends of the wire pairs together, and then twist on a wire connector. Make sure all twists are in the same direction. If there is no house ground wire coming from the junction box, locate ground screw (E) on the mounting bracket/mounting strap and wrap the fixture’s ground wire around the ground screw. Use a screwdriver to tighten the top of ground screw (E) onto the wires and into the mounting bracket/mounting strap. Tuck the wires into the junction box.

FINISHING THE INSTALLATION

FOR CHANDELIER INSTALLATION REFER TO THE DIAGRAM LABELED (1): 5. Push canopy (G) up to the ceiling and slide canopy loop collar (I) up beneath the canopy (G). Tightly thread canopy loop collar (I) onto canopy loop (H) to secure canopy (G) in place. Slide candle sleeves (P) over sockets. Install light bulbs (not included) in accordance with the fixture’s specifications. Do not exceed the maximum recommended wattage. Your installation is now complete. Turn on the power and test your fixture. FOR SEMI-FLUSH INSTALLATION REFER TO THE DIAGRAM LABELED (2): 5. Push canopy (F) up to the ceiling and tightly thread nuts (G) onto the exposed threads of mounting screws (A) on mounting strap (B). Slide candle sleeves (J) over sockets. Install light bulbs (not included) in accordance with the fixture’s specifications. Do not exceed the maximum recommended wattage. Your installation is now complete. Turn on the power and test your fixture.
