utility knife to obtain an unobstructed view of the width of the joist so the exact center can easily be determined. It may be necessary
to reposition the spacer channel bar and mark with a pencil where the lag bolt is to be fastened.
□
Using a power drill with a 1/8 in. drill bit (U) attached drill a pilot hole into the center of the joist.

Attach the 6 mm nut (Q) to the fixed bolt and tighten with a ratchet or adjustable wrench until the spacer channel bar is securely
fastened to the motor hoist.
□
Place a lag bolt(s) (K) and using the ratchet fasten the bolt(s) into the joist(s) until the spacer channel bar is securely fastened.
