3. a . Pass canopy (B) over the long machine screws (DD) protruding from mounting bracket (A) then secure in place with lock washers (EE) and threaded knobs (CC).
   NOTE: The bottom edge of an outlet box should be flush with the bottom surface of a ceiling. However, many boxes are recessed into the ceiling. The long machine screws (DD) are designed to have extra length to accommodate to various box depths.
   NOTE: Make sure all wires are inside of canopy (B) and do not get pinched between canopy (B) and mounting bracket (A), or canopy (B) and ceiling.
   

4. The long machine screws (DD) may, at first, protrude too far past the surface of the canopy (B). 2) Screw the threaded knobs (CC) onto the long machine screws (DD). The screws will back thread into the mounting bracket (A) until the canopy (B) is tight against the ceiling.
   Hardware Used
   EE Lock Washers

CC Threaded Knob

4. Screw knurled ring (F) onto threaded nipple (G) such that knurled ring (F) is approximately 1/2 inch (12.7 mm) – 5/8 inch (15.87mm) down threaded nipple (G). Screw threaded nipple (G) into socket coupling (D) approximately 1/4in. (6.35 mm).
   NOTE: Be sure there is approximately 1/4 inch(6.35 mm) of space left between knurled ring (F) and bottom of socket coupling (D).
   

5. Raise glass shade (C) up to canopy (B), carefully passing threaded nipple (G) through small hole in bottom of glass shade (C).
   

6. While holding glass shade (C) in place flush against canopy (B), slip lower trim (K) up over threads protruding through bottom of glass shade (C).
   

7. While continuing to hold glass shade (C) in place flush against canopy (B), and holding lower trim (K) in place flush against bottom of glass shade (C), adjust the length of threads protruding through bottom of lower trim (K) by turning threaded nipple (G) clockwise to expose fewer threads, or counterclockwise to expose more threads.

NOTE: There should be enough threads protruding from lower trim (K) such that one hex nut (J) and lower finial (L) would be able to thread onto the threads and secure lower trim (K) tight against glass shade (C).

8. Carefully slip lower trim (K) and glass shade (C) off of threaded nipple (G) and retain for later in the assembly.
   While holding threaded nipple (G) in-place, screw knurled ring (F) toward socket coupling (D) until knurled ring (F) is tight against the bottom of socket coupling (D).
