and/or property damage.

It is recommended that all wiring be performed by a qualified

Assembly Instructions

1. Preparing for installation

A. Disconnect electrical power before installing or servicing any part of

this fixture.

B. Remove diffuser, unlatch levers (9) on opposite sides and gently remove

diffuser.

2. Wiring.

All wiring must take place inside junction box. Caution: Make sure

power is off at fuse or circuit breaker box. Check power wires for damage or
scrapes. If power supply wires are within three inches of ballast use wire
suitable for at least 90C (194F). Note: Most dwellings built before 1985 have
supply wire rated to 60C. Consult a qualified electrician before installing.

Make sure that the power source conforms to the requirements of the
fixture. (See labels on fixture housing).

To reduce the risk of electrical shock, and to assure proper operation,
this fixture must be adequately grounded. To accomplish proper
grounding, there must be a separate ground wire (green) or bare metal
contact (metal conduit) between this fixture and the ground
connection of your main power supply panel. The green ground
screw location is clearly marked on the fixture housing.

This fixture is intended to be used for general indoor lighting in dry
or damp locations only.

A. This unit will not operate properly unless connected to a “grounded”

electrical circuit. Electrical shock, over heating, low or no light output,
and shortened lamp life can result if proper grounding is not done.
Securely attach green (or green and yellow) wire to ground supply wire.

B. Using wire connectors (provided), connect white supply wire to white

ballast lead. Connect black hot supply wire to black ballast lead. Do not
mix wires. Pull on each wire lead to make sure connections are secure.
Make certain no bare wires are exposed outside of wire connectors.

3. Mounting.

A. Mount housing (4) to junction box (not provided) with the two #8-32 x 7/8” screws (7) (provided) through keyhole slots (8).

4. Lamps

A. Circline- Install (small) lamp (2) around three inner clips (5) and connect the

wire harness connector from the ballast to the lamp that matches the lamp
wattage. Install large lamp (3) around three outer clips (6) and connect the
remaining wire harness connector from the ballast to the lamp.

B. Compact – Install lamps (11) by inserting lamp pins into lamp holder and press

until lamp snaps in place.

5. Diffuser mounting.

A. Install the square plastic diffuser (1). Align the diffuser (1) inside the bends and

to lock the diffuser in place you must rotate the latch until it stops. Make sure
you locked all latches.

6. Power to the fixture can now be restored.
