To Complete Fixture Assembly

Component Parts

H Ground Screw

Caution: Be sure power is off at the main breaker box
prior to installation.

(Figures 3 & 4)

I Threaded Stud (2)
K Barrel Knob (2)
L Canopy Pipe
M Plastic Clutch Sleeve

1. Thread the wires from the fixture pipe (A) into and

through the canopy pipe (L) up through the canopy (E).

2. Unscrew the clutch (N) from the fixture pipe (A); slide it

across the wires and onto the canopy pipe (L). Follow this
with the plastic clutch sleeve (M), oriented so the tapered
end of the clutch sleeve nests in the clutch. (

Figure 3)

Slide the canopy pipe (L) as far necessary to give you the
total length of the fixture which you desire. Be careful not
to scratch the pipe surfaces and to pull excess wire up
through the canopy pipe (L). Screw clutch (N) onto fixture pipe (A). There
must be a minimum 1-1/2" of inner pipe inside the outer pipe. Hand-tighten the
clutch to temporarily hold this adjustment. The clutch is not securely fastened
at this point; do not depend on it to hold the fixture.

Important: To ensure full connection strength, be sure the tapered end of the
plastic clutch sleeve is oriented toward the clutch when assembled and
securely tighten set screw (Figure 3).

3. Thread studs (I) through appropriate holes in crossbar (G) to match holes in

canopy (E).

4. Using two machine screws (not provided), fasten the crossbar (G) to the

electric box.

Note: A new electric box comes with screws. When replacing a fixture, retain the
existing screws for use with the new fixture.

5. Using suitable wire connectors (not provided) connect fixture wires to supply

(white to white or ribbed and black to black or smooth). Connect all ground
wires to green ground screw (H).

Caution: Make sure wire connectors are twisted on securely, and no bare wire is
exposed.

6. Slide canopy (E) over threaded studs (I) and push firmly to ceiling, making

sure that no wires are pinched between fixture canopy and ceiling. Fasten with
barrel knobs (K). Be sure studs are fully seated in the barrel knobs.

7. Once the fixture is fastened to the ceiling, tighten the set screw (O) in clutch

(N) firmly with hex wrench provided. Only after the set screw (O) is tight
should you install the glass.

8. Refer instructions below and install glass.
