Total Load Weight: 19 lbs)
A. Before installing the mounting plate (5) that is shown in
Fig 1, make sure the two #8 screws (4), two lock
washers (8) and two hex nuts are installed to the
plate (5), and also make sure that the wires (19) and
ground wire (7) are placed under the plate (5) and
the end wires are able to reach the wiring location
area. Install the plate on the outlet box. Note
: To rigidly
secure the plate, it is recommended to use an outlet box
and extra support hardware ¼ trade size screws (not
included) or ¼ toggle bolts (not included) at the four ¼
diameter hole located at both ends of the plate (5).
4. To Install Canopy / Stem to Plate Assembly (Fig 1)
A. Align the 2 holes on the canopy to the plate
two #8-32x1inch (4) and use the ball nut
(11) to secure the canopy temporarily.
B. Feed through the wires (19) to the stem (14)
and thread the end of the stem to the nipple
that is attached on the swivel bracket
assembly (A). Repeat these procedures to
connect the other stem (without wires) to the
swivel bracket assembly (B). Note: When
tightening the stem to the threads of the nipple from swivel bracket
assembly (a) and (b) make sure that the swivel ball groove is locked in
place to the bracket tab.

(18) on both of the stems and also remove the channel cover (2) by using
the procedure in Fig 3.
Note: When mounting channel assembly, make sure that the ballast is near
the stem that has the wires.
B. Install the channel assembly: first make sure that you have the flat washers (15) installed on both of the stems (will be on top
of the channel after installation). Feed the wires through the channel hole (near ballast side) and align the other stem with the
other hole on the channel as they are shown in Fig 1 and Fig 2. Now re-install the hardware that you took off temporarily,
while holding the channel with one hand, fasten the flat washer (16), lock washer (17) and mechanically secure the channel
with the hex nut (18).
