Step 1. Cutting the power
Same as before, the first step is to turn off the power. Do not operation when power is turned on.
Step 2. Connecting Wires

Step 3. Mounting the U-shaped bracket
Mount the U-shaped bracket on both sides of the UFO LED high bay light with screws and make sure the light can be hung with the frame.
Step 4. Hanging the U-shaped bracket
Measure the distance between the two holes on the U-shaped bracket, and mark the ceiling. Drill a small hole on the wall using a drill of the same diameter as the plastic expansion tube. Hammer in the expansion tube, tightened the screws through U-shaped bracket and secure the bracket on the ceiling. The UFO LED high bay light will thus be suspended.
Step 5. Connecting the dimmer
Connect the wires on the light to a dimmer if needed.
Step 6. Adjusting the angle and turn on the power
Adjust the angle of the light via the U-shaped bracket, then connect the switch and turn of the power.
3. 1/2’’ NPT Mount
Apart from the methods above, you could also use a 1/2” NPT to mount the UFO LED high bay light. A steel pipe and brackets are used to hang the light, instead of mounting the bracket directly to the ceiling.
This is a easy way to install. First, secure the bracket onto the light, then unscrew the 1/2” NPT nut, connect the steel pipe and the bracket, tighten the 1/2” NPT nut, so that you can hang the steel pipe up.
