Remove the bulb from the fixture by placing your thumbs on the
metal ends of the bulb. While applying slight pressure on the
bulb, roll the bulb toward you until the contact pins on the ends
of the bulb disengage from the socket. Pull the bulb straight out
from the socket and set aside during mounting (
Fig. 2
).
For mounting over the wall stud, drill two small pilot holes for
the screws (
Fig. 5
). Screw both wood screws into the wooden
studs. Approximately 1/8 in. of the screw should still be
protruding from the wall.
Slide the fixture over until the narrow legs of the keyhole slots
are under the heads of the screws (
Fig. 7
). Finish tightening
the screws until they are firmly seated, and the fixture is
tightly secured to the mounting surface.
For mounting into drywall, drill 3/16 in. holes for the plastic wall
anchors (not included). Insert the plastic wall anchors into the
proper holes and tap them into place so they are flush with the
surface of your drywall. Screw all screws into the plastic
anchors (
Fig. 6
). Approximately 1/2 in. of the screw should still be protruding from the wall.
