(3) mounting holes provided on the pole. Slide the two threaded rods through the top and

bottom mounting holes in the pole and start to thread the rods into the matching holes in

the mounting plate (three turns are sufficient). Place one of the gaskets over the threaded

rods and against the pole.

3. To mount the arm, slide arm over threaded rod using the bolt guides inside the arm. Place

remaining gasket over the threaded rods and against the mounting arm.

4. Position the housing at the end of the arm

and feed fixture wires through arm, pole backing

plate, and out pole top. Align the holes with

the threaded rods and insert the threaded rods

into the fixture. Install split lockwashers

and hex nuts (furnished) on the ends of the

threaded rods that are inside the fixture and

tighten securely. Make sure fixture is mounted

straight and square with pole before
