Important: Please read and understand all instructions completely before installing
this fixture.
WARNING: Fixture installation (and use) and all electrical connections must be in accordance with
local and National Electrical Codes (N.E.C.) rules, regulations and standards. If you are unfamiliar
with installing fixture(s), accessories and/or electrical wiring have a qualified licensed electrician
install this fixture for you. Fixture should be installed by a qualified electrician.
WARNING: RISK OF SHOCK. House electric current can cause painful shock or serious injury.
WARNING: Always disconnect power before fixture installation, wiring, or maintenance.
WARNING: Before starting the wire connections, disconnect the power by turning off the circuit
breaker or removing the fuse at the fuse panel. Turning the power off using the light switch is not
sufficient to prevent electrical shock.
This luminaire must be connected with supply wire/conductors rated at 90°C. Most dwellings built
before 1985 have supply wire rated at 60°C; consult a qualified electrician before installing.
WARNING: Before service insure fixture is cool to touch.
WARNING: Check fixture for input voltage before connecting power to fixture.
Keep these instructions in a safe place for future use/reference.
WARNING: RISK OF SHOCK. This fixture is suitable for dry and damp locations. Also for use with
covered ceiling mount.
WARNING: Do not install any fixture or assembly (etc.) closer than 6" from any curtain, or similar
combustible material.
Fixture must be installed on a circuit protected by Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI).
Install LED fixture(s)/LED driver(s) only on their own circuit. Do not mix any other products
(Incandescent, Compact Fluorescent, H.I.D. products/fixtures, etc...) with LED fixture(s)/LED
driver(s) on a single circuit.
Do not use any other electrical equipment (example: surge protector photocell, etc.) that is not
(rated) for use with LED fixture(s)/LED driver(s) on the same circuit as LED fixture(s)/LED driver(s).
Install remote surge protector(s) (by others, goes on the circuit with nothing between the surge
protector and the LED fixture(s)/LED driver(s)), if the fixture is not already installed with a surge
protector, to help remove power surges that may harm LED fixture(s), appropriate for the
installation. Periodically check and make sure that your remote surge protector(s) are in good
working order.

• Warning Electrical Shock Hazard: All wiring should be done by a qualified electrical professional.
• Disconnect all power sources before attempting to install fixture.
• Adjustable Stem Assembly is rated for 50 lbs Maximum Static Loads Only (No dynamic or moving loads).
• Not for chemical or pool corrosive environments.
• To prevent the LCALD8 fixture with the Adjustable Stem Assembly from falling during installation secure the LCALD8 fixture with the Adjustable Stem Assembly
to the j-box with a cable (by others).
Warning: Make sure your junction box can support the combined weight of the LCALD8 (12lbs) and Adjustable Stem (-STM (FIG C).
Warning: Do not install the LCALD8 with the stem “-STM” (FIG C) on ceiling with a slope/slant of more than 40°. Check your
ceiling(s) slope./slant to make sure that that your ceiling is slanted less than 40° (FIG D). The LCALD8 with 8 Adjustable Stem
Assembly (-STM) can be on a ceiling with a maximum tilt of 40° (FIG D). Make sure to adjust/rotate the mounting bracket
(#2) on the junction box (by others) so the slot on the ball (#8) is facing the wall.
NOTE: The LCALD8 stem assembly “-STM” (FIG C) sits up in the 4” octagonal j-box (by others) 13/16” (FIG D). A deeper 4”
octagonal j-box (e.g.: by others) may be needed depending on your j-box wiring requirements.
Note: If shortening your supplied Stem (#14) to your desired length follow the instructions on page 4 before assembling and
installing the Adjustable Stem Assembly on the ceiling with the below instructions.
1) If not already installed then install the two (2) magnets (#6) with the two (2) 6-32 screws (#7) onto the Mounting Plate
(#2), (FIG A).
2) Mount the Mounting Plate (#2), using the four (4) slots (0.223“ wide x 0.890” long) to a 4” octagonal j-box (by others)
using j-box screws (by others). Tip: If you back off the j-box screws on the Mounting Plate (#2) then the Mounting Plate
(#2) will slide closer to j-box. Remember to tighten the j-box screws when the Half Ball Plate (#5), j–box and Mounting
Plate (#2) are in place.
3) Carefully pull wire conductors/cord (FIG C) through the fixtures Threaded fitting (FIG C), then through Adapter (#13, and
FIG C) and then out through the Adjustable Stem (#14). Make sure wire/cord is at least 6” longer out the Stem (#14 ) and
top of the canopy (FIG C) for easy installation.
4) Install the Adapter (#13) onto the Stem (#14) and tighten and then tighten the Adapter (#13) (on the Stem (#14))
onto the fixture's threaded fitting (FIG C).
5) Put the Canopy (#1) over the Stem (#14).
6) Place Half Ball Plate (#5) onto the Stem (#14).
7) Place Half Ball (#8) onto Stem (#14) and insert the Long 1/4”-20 Half Ball Socket Set Screw (#12), through the
tapped hole in the Half Ball (#8) & through the Stem's (#14) 1/8" hole. Then tighten the long 1/4”-20 Half Ball Socket
Set Screw (#12) using the supplied 1/8" allen wrench so the pin (on the end of the set screw (#12)) engages through
opposite 1/8” hole in the Stem (#14) and into the opposite Half Ball (#8) hole.
8) Insert the Bushing (4) into the U Retaining Bracket (#3) and slide onto the Half Ball Rectangular Plate (#5).
9) While securing fixture connect the power supply wiring (from j-box) to fixture wiring from the Stem #14). See "Wiring"
instructions below.
10) Hinge the Half Ball Rectangular Plate (#5), as shown, on the inside of the Mounting Plate (#2). Slide the Half Ball
Rectangular Plate (#5) in so that the tapped screw holes on the other side of the Half Ball Rectangular Plate (#5) align with
the Mounting Plate (#2). Secure in place with the 8-32 x 1/4” Long Screw (#9) (FIG A above).
11) Push the 5" Canopy (#1) up to Mounting Plate (#2) and onto the Magnets (#6) flush with the ceiling covering the
j-box.
Return fixture to Liton for servicing/replacing LED and LED drivers.
NOTE: Check fixture for input voltage before connecting power to fixture. Connect wiring in j-box. For dimming information
(wiring diagrams, chart, etc.) see LCALD8 web site page.
1. Connect ground wire (green or bare copper/aluminum) from the supply circuit to the ground wire (green or bare copper)
/screw/connector from the fixture.
2. Connect the neutral (common) wire from the power supply circuit to the neutral wire from the fixture.
3. Connect the main voltage supply wire (line/lead) from the power supply to the line (lead) wire from the fixture.
4. Secure connection using UL Listed wire nuts/connectors and then with UL Listed Electrical tape (by others), as required,
appropriate for the connection.

Shortening (Field Cut) the Adjustable Stem:
2. Drill an 1/8”Hole through the hole on the Half ball opposite the 1/4-20 short set screw
(#11).
Always use eye protection.
3. Loosen the 1/4-20 short set screw (#11) in Half Ball (#8) and rotate the Half Ball 180
degrees placing 1/4-20 short set screw (#11) centered on the drilled 1/8” hole. Tighten
the 1/4-20 short set screw (#11) allowing the 1/4-20 short set screw to be centered on
hole. You should see the end of the 1/4-20 short set screw (#11) pin from/on the inside.
4. Drill a 2nd 1/8” hole through the hole on the Half Ball (#8) opposite the 1/4-20
short set screw (#11). Deburr any sharp edges on ID of stem from the holes just
drilled.
5. Remove the 1/4-20 short set screw (#11). on Half Ball (#8) and insert the 1/4-20
Long set screw (#12) into Half Ball (#8) tapped hole and through the first drilled hole in
Stem (#14) and then through to other drilled hole in the side of Stem. Tighten the 1/4-20
Long set screw (#12) using the 1/8” allen key so the end of the pin engages through
opposite 1/8” drilled hole on opposite side of stem and into Half Ball.
When finished return to page3 of 4 to install Adjustable Stem Assembly (STM) in fixture.
1. Cut Stem (#14) to desired length (See FIG C for how for fixture is below
ceiling) and deburr inside edge. Insert Half Ball (#8) onto the Stem (#14)
with the end of the cut Stem even with the back of the Half Ball and insert
1/4-20 short screw (#11) in the Half Ball and tighten the 1/4-20 short screw
(#11) in the Half Ball to the Stem (#14).
