Preparation
You will need a standard trade size connector for a flexible whip or NM cable.
DO NOT USE THIS FIXTURE WITH A DIMMING CIRCUIT. If you presently have dimmer controls, you will
need to remove them, and replace them with regular electrical switches. If you have a three way dimmer,
(Page 1)
you will have to replace it with a regular three way switch. If you are unfamiliar with electrical
installations, we recommend you have a qualified electrician do your installation.

IMPORTANT: Fluorescent bulbs are included with your Good Earth Lighting fixture
protect the bulb during shipment, your bulb(s) may be packed in a separate area of the packing
materials. Additionally, your bulbs may already be placed into their respective sockets, but may
have a protective corrugated support collar slipped over the bulb. Do NOT operate your fixture with
this corrugated support collar in place. You can either cut this collar off or remove the bulb from the
sockets, and slide the support collar off the bulb. Discard the corrugated support collar. You may
want to put the bulb(s) in a safe place until your assembly is complete.

knock-out did not break free, use pliers and bend it back and forth until it snaps off.
WARNING: Shut off power at the circuit breaker or fuse panel
Fig. 1
before removing the old fixture (Fig. 1).
OFF
Remove the old fixture. Make yourself a sketch of how the fixture is
Fig. 2
wired (index the sketch by wire color) or mark the wires
themselves with masking tape and a pencil so you will know how
to connect the wires to your new fixture (Fig. 2). If several wires
are involved or if the wiring seems more complicated and perhaps
even includes a red wire, take note of the connections before you
disconnect them.
Remove the diffuser by pulling back and up on the top edge
of the diffuser using your fingertips (Fig. 1).
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
Fig. 2
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).
Place fixture up to mounting surface and mark position of the
narrow end of the keyslot holes on the mounting surface
with a pencil (Fig. 3). The screw hole locations must be exact
for the fixture to mount properly. Using a small drill or nail,
make two small starter holes at the marked locations.
WALL STUD MOUNTING
For mounting over the wall stud, drill two small pilot holes for the
screws (Fig. 4). Screw both wood screws into the wooden studs.
Approximately 1 /2 in. of the screw should still be protruding from
the wall.

DRYWALL MOUNTING
For mounting into drywall, drill 3 /16 in. holes for the plastic wall
anchors. 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 both screws into the plastic anchors (Fig. 5).
Approximately 1 /2 in. of the screw should still be protruding from
the wall.
