After all luminaires are mounted, adjust height and levelness of each luminaire 
by tightening or loosening hex nuts on Mounting Brackets. Allow the weight 
of the luminaire to be suspended by the Hanging Bracket while simultaneously 
resting on the flange of the T-Bar.

Note:

 One person holds the luminaire and another person adjusts hex nuts.

11

Make wiring connections from driver to 1st PCB. Pull lead wires from luminaire 
and make splice connections to lead wires from driver. Verify wiring diagram 
before connecting.

13

Verify driver wire colors from wiring diagram, then connect luminaires to power 
source. Drivers used for this product vary. Always confirm wiring diagram from 
driver installation instructions before connecting.

15

If applicable, install end caps to ends of runs.

After all installation steps are complete and lighting is confirmed to be working, 
install reflective film to runs.

Note:

 Follow the steps on page 19 to install reflective film.

17

Perform a continuity test before connecting luminaire to power source.
Refer to page 20 for continuity test step by step.

14

Apply mud to Wall Trim until completely covered and smooth. Allow to dry 
completely before painting or sanding. Do not use pre-mixed mud compounds.

16

Drivers may be mounted on top of luminaire if suitable for your application.
Only mount drivers on top of luminaire if it is readily accessible, such as a 
dropped tile ceiling. Position the driver in the center of luminaire and secure 
using 1/4” #8 screws (by others). Do not mount drivers between segments.

Note:

 Driver size and location of mounting holes may differ from below example.
