Mini-Pendant Kit

Installation and Safety Instructions

Warning: Be sure the electricity to the wires you are working on is shut off; either the fuse is removed or the circuit breaker is shut off.

General

You don't need special tools to install this fixture. Be sure to follow the steps in the order given. Under no circumstances should a fixture be hung on house electrical wires, nor should a swag type fixture be installed on a ceiling which contains a radiant type heating system. Read instructions carefully. If you are unclear as to how to proceed, consult a qualified electrician.

Installation

Important: Do not attach fixture directly to outlet box.

Step 1: Thread mounting screw (A) into the matching hole of mounting bar (B).

Step 2: Secure the mounting bar (B) to outlet box with outlet box screws (C) (not provided).

Grounding Instructions

Step 1: Insert the green grounding screw into the hole with two raised dimples on the mounting bar. Wrap the ground wire (green wire with tracer and green label) from the fixture (if supplied) around the green grounding screw, then connect it to ground wire (green wire with tracer and green label) from the outlet box (if not fixed on the outlet box) using a wire connector (not supplied). Never connect ground wire to black or white power supply wires.

Step 2: Take note of the color of the wire(s) on your fixture. Identify which group your fixture wire(s) falls into and connect the wires according to the directions below.

Group A: Connect to black house wire: transparent, brownish grey or brown with tracer (with black label)

Group B: Connect to white house wire: transparent or without tracer (with white label)

*Note: When parallel wire (SVT) is used, the tracer wire is connected to group A and the wire without a tracer is connected to group B (seen best when viewed from wire end).

Step 3: Take your fixture wire(s) from group A and place evenly against the black wire from the outlet box. Do NOT twist wires together before using wire connectors.

Step 4: Fit a wire connector over the wires and screw the connector clockwise until you feel firmness.

Step 5: Try to gently pull the connectors off the wires. If you can pull the connector off, carefully repeat steps 3 and 4 above, and check again for a firm connection.

Step 6: Connect the fixture wire from group B to the white wire from the outlet box in the same manner. Make sure no bare wires can be seen outside wire connectors.

Final Assembly

Step 1: After wires are connected, tuck them carefully inside outlet box. Raise canopy (D) allowing the mounting screw (A) to protrude through the hole in the canopy (D), and secure with ball nut (E).

Step 2: Install the glass onto the socket (F) and secure the retaining ring (G).

Step 3: Install lamp. (Please do not exceed the maximum capacity recommended on the socket).

Cleaning

To clean, wipe fixture with a soft cloth. Clean glass with a mild soap. Do not use abrasive materials such as scouring pads or powders, steel wool or abrasive paper.
