To Install/ Shorten Pendant:
All Pendant shades use the quick connect adapter to attach to the rail. On the QP-601 the mating piece (top conical
section) for quick connect adapter comes uninstalled. Feed the cable end through the glass shade and the metal
finial. If cable needs to be shortened, make the cut now. To install the top conical section, follow the step-by-step
