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.
This fixture is intended for use as general lighting in dry or damp
locations.
Assembly Instructions
1. Preparing for installation.
A. Disconnect electrical power before installing or servicing any part of this fixture.
B. Unpack and lay out all fixture components to verify everything is included to fully assemble the
fixture.
C. Please affix all aircraft cables with supplied connector adapters to prevent cables from coming
undone when assembled.
2. Fixture assembly - Lighting fixture is partially assembled
A. Lamp Shade / 11” Pan with Cord / Cable Assembly:
ƒ Remove the hex nut and lock washer from the 11” pan stem
assembly (do not remove the 1-1/8” flat washer).
ƒ Now, feed the cord through the center hole of the shade assembly
and mechanically secure it with the hex nut and lock washer that
you removed before.
ƒ Feed through the three cable (11) to the connectors that are mounted
on the 11” pan. Insert the cable by pressing the “Spring Pin”
(12)(A) Fig 5 downward and holding until it comes out at the other
end. Repeat these steps for the other cables. Note: Cable length
adjustments might be needed again for the correct cord length
alignment.
B. Take the fixture power cord wires (Fig 3) and slide them through the
canopy (6) strain relief assembly (8).
Cord Length Adjustments / Cutting / Stripping Wire Ends:
ƒ Before cutting the cord, measure the desired cord length for pendant
mounting. Tighten the strain relief by threading tapered metal finial
to mechanically secure the cord.
ƒ For wiring NEC (National Electrical Code) requirements, cut the
cord about 7” from the canopy (6) as shown in Fig 3.
ƒ Cut the cord outside jacket insulation about 3” from canopy (6) and then stripped 3/8” the
ends of the three wires (13) same as shown in Fig 3.
3. Fixture mounting from Junction Box (Fig 1).
A. Install the short screws (1) with lock washers (3) and hex nuts (4) all provided into the offset
holes (2) of the round mounting bracket as shown in Fig 1. Be sure these two screws (1) line up
with holes in canopy (6) and point away from junction box.
Note: These short screws (1) may require adjustment to mount the two ball nuts (7)
correctly.
