Assembling the Light Fixture

Important:

 Before installing the Ballasts, remove the T-5 Light Tubes by twisting them gently out of the sockets. Set them aside for 

now. The Light Tubes are fragile and may break if left inside the ballasts during installation.

Step 1.

 Place a Light Fixture Hood upside down on a level surface. 

This will reveal the Ballast Clips inside (Figure 4). 

Step 2. 

Locate the Ballasts and note that each end has an open 

pin (female) and closed pin (male) socket. 

Important:

 Place the 

Ballasts into the Hood so that each end of the Light Fixture has 
a male and female socket. Push a Ballast into each set of Clips, 
making sure to center the Ballasts in place (Figure 4).

Step 3.

 Plug the 6' Electrical Cord into the male end of one Ballast. 

Tip:

 Orient all Electrical Cords to one end of the SunLite Garden 

as you assemble each Fixture. 

Step 4.

 On the opposite end of the Light Fixture, use a Link Cord to 

connect the two Ballasts. Snap it firmly into place. If it does not 
fit, make sure the Ballasts are positioned with one male and one 
female socket at each end of the Light fixture. 

Step 5.

 Replace the Light Tubes by sliding the pins on the Tube into the Ballast sockets, then rotate it 0 degrees until it “locks” into 

place. Installing the Tubes correctly will ensure they produce the most light. Do not force the Tubes into place. Turn the Light 
Fixture Hood upright and remove the protective film from the black side of it. Repeat Steps 1-5 for each Light Fixture Hood.

Ball Chain Assembly

Step 1. 

Attach a Chain Connector to each Split Ring (Figure 5, detail). If necessary, use needle-nose pliers to pry open the Split Rings. 

Step 2.

 Connect one end of a Ball Chain to the Chain Connectors on the Split Rings. The last ball of the chain will “snap” onto the 

connector.

Step 3. 

Take the loose end of each Ball Chain and thread it through a Chain Grip (Figure 5). Then, thread the Ball Chain through the 

drilled hole in the S2 Vertical Bar and over the Spacer, as shown in Figure 5. 

Tip: 

To make it easier to install the Ball Chains, tip the 

assembled Frame onto its side so that the chain drops down into the hole and over the spacer. Repeat to install the Ball Chains on 
both sides and all tiers of the Frame.

Step 4.

 Place Poly trays and assembled Light Fixtures onto each tier of the Frame. Attach the Ball Chains to the Light Fixtures by 

snapping the last ball of each Ball Chain into the Chain Connectors that are pre-installed on the top of each Light Fixture.
