description listed on the packing slip with the fixture label on the inside of the housing to be sure
you have received the correct merchandise.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept
any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Tools Required: 9/16" socket wrench. 3/16" allen wrench.
Figure 1
1. Attach mounting block to the pole by placing the flat bar stock with the 3 holes, two of which
are threaded, inside the pole, aligning with the drill pattern (shown on next page). Place the cast
aluminum block on the outside of the pole, with the word “Up” towards the top of the pole and
facing outward or away from the pole. Thread the (2) 3/8" diameter hex head bolts through the
block and pole into the threaded bar stock. (There is no gasket needed). Check plumb and level
of the block and secure bolts tightly with 9/16" wrench or socket. (See Figure 1)
2. Insert the wires from the fixture through the center hole of the mounting block assembly,
pulling them into the pole. Place the luminaire over the mounting block while tilted up at a slight
angle above horizontal, and then tip back down to horizontal once oriented on the block making
certain the wires are not pinched. For ease of installation, the mounting block will hold the weight
of the luminaire prior to tightening the mounting bolt. (See Figure 2)
3. To secure the fixture, open doorframe by loosening the (2) captive screws using 3/16" allen
wrench. (See Figure 3)
4. Tighten the locking hex head bolt inside the arm with a 9/16" socket to 20-30 ft. lbs. torque
(overtightening will cause stripping and void all warranties). (See Figure 4)
5. Check the mounted assembly to assure proper placement and secured mounting has been
achieved such that the fixture is fully seated on the cleat and arm is flush with pole.
6. Close the doorframe and tighten the (2) captive doorframe screws.
7. Make wire connections, observing proper voltage and polarity. Connect green ground wire
from the fixture to the field ground wire. Reference wiring diagram on driver. Secure wires; push
back into pole.
Troubleshooting: If this fixture fails to operate properly, check to make sure: • The fixture is wired correctly. • The fixture is
grounded correctly. • The line voltage at the fixture is correct. If all these variables have been checked and the fixture still
does not operate as specified, contact your local Lithonia Lighting distributor.

1. CAUTION: APPLY A CONTINUOUS BEAD OF WEATHER - PROOF CAULKING BETWEEN MOUNTING PLATE AND WALL TO EN-
SURE WEATHER - TIGHT INTEGRITY OF ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS (see diagram below).
2. Secure base plate to wall with (4) 1/4" fastener (by others) using the (4) holes located on the outer corners of the base plate. Check the
base plate to confirm that it is level and plumb in all directions (see diagram below).
3. Prepare the cover plate by attaching the fixture's mounting block to the cover plate using (2) 3/8" diameter by 1-1/4" bolts with lockwashers
by inserting the bolts and washers into the mounting block through the cover plate and thread into the threaded steel bar stock. Use a 9/16"
socket or wrench and tighten securely (see diagram below).
4. Place the curved portion of the cover plate upwards. Ensure the factory installed gasket is in place on the backside of the cover plate. Place
large eyelet of safety cable over the lower bolt. Secure with provided nut (see diagram below).
5. Insert and tighten (4) 3/8" diameter by 1-1/4" stainless steel hex head screws into the threaded opening of the cover plate by turning
approximately 6-7 full turns (see diagram above).
6. To prepare fixture for installation, open doorframe by loosening the (2) captive screws using 3/16" allen wrench. (See Figure 3)
7. Pull the wires from the fixture through the mounting block on the cover plate. Place fixture onto the mounting block, being sure the wires
are not being pinched.
8. Tighten the locking hex head bolt inside the arm with a 9/16" socket to 20-30 ft. lbs. torque (overtightening will cause stripping and void
all warranties). (See Figure 4)
9. Close the doorframe and tighten the (2) captive doorframe screws.
10. Make wire connections, observing proper voltage and polarity. Connect green ground wire from the fixture to the field ground wire.
Reference wiring diagram on driver.
11. Attach small eyelet of safety cable to base plate with provided 1/4-20 screw (see diagram above).
12. Slide the entire fixture assembly over the base plate, tighten the top (2) 3/8" x 1-1/4" stainless steel hex head screws until 3/8" to 1/4" of
the screw is still visible. Tighten the two bottom hex head screws until 3/8" to 1/4" of the screw is still visible. Alternating between the top
two and bottom two sets of screws, gently tighten until snug, (approx one thread showing on each screw).
