INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION
Forq - Outdoor
WS-W1724
PREPARATION
- Shut o the power at the circuit breaker and remove existing xture, including the mounting hardware.
- Carefully unpack your new xture and lay out all the parts on a clear area. Be careful not to lose any small parts necessary for installation.
MOUNTING THE FIXTURE (FIG. 1)
1. Secure mounting back plate to the junction box using junction box screws (D1). The side of the mounting back plate marked “GND”
must face out.
CONNECTING THE WIRES (FIG. 2)
2. Connect the electrical wires as shown in Fig. 2, making sure that all wire connectors (A1) are secured. If your outlet box has a ground wire,
connect it to the xture’s ground wire. Otherwise, connect the xture’s ground wire directly to the back plate using the green screw
provided. Tuck wires carefully inside the junction box.
3. Place the xture over the mounting back plate and secure with set screws (C1) and gasket (B1).
COMPLETING THE INSTALLATION (FIG. 3)
4. To prevent moisture from entering the outlet box and causing a short, use clear caulking (i.e. indoor/outdoor silicone sealant)to outline the
outside of xture back plate where it meets the wall leaving a space at bottom to allow moisture a means to escape.
