 Outlet box screws pass through slotted holes of 

the hanger bracket (Figure 2).

   Pull the electric wires in the outlet box down through 

the opening in the hanger bracket and bend wires up and 
out of the way so that the hanger ball will easily fit into the 
hanger bracket.

assembly on the hanger bracket that was just attached to 
the outlet box (Figure 3).  Be sure the groove in the ball is
