For replacement installation or for new installation:
□ Install two hexagon socket mounting screws (BB) in
the bottom holes, leaving about 3/8 in. space under
the head.
NOTE: Hardware included is for mounting to wood surfaces
only. Ensure that the fixture is mounted onto a structurally
sound surface that will support the fixture.
