Locate the ceiling joists in the area of desired installation and determine the direction in which they are
running. The ceiling Angle Brackets(B) are installed parallel to the ceiling joists. Refer to the diagram
below for additional installation clarification.
INSTALL CEILING ANGLES
ATTACH DOWNRODS
Use Center Holes in Angle Brackets(B) as a template to
mark holes on stud. Use joists 24"-42" apart.
There must be exactly 50" center to center, measuring
between center holes in Brackets(B) along the same joist
TIP-
It may be easier to measure from the outside of first
bracket(B) to the inside of the next bracket (also 50").
IMPORTANT-Brackets must be mounted perfectly in
line and square to each other.
Pre-drill 3/16" holes for each screw. Rub some bar soap or add
a drop of liquid soap to the threads of the lag screws to ease
installation. U
Angle Bracket(B)
se a Socket Wrench or Nut Driver to install two of
the 5/16" x 2 1/2" Lag Screws(H) into each
.
Do not over tighten.
Determine hanging height and overlap & attach 2 Left Facing
Downrods(D) & 2 Right Facing Downrods(E) to each Straight
Downrod(C) using 4 Hex Bolts(I) and Hex Nuts(J). Tighten with 1/2"
Socket Wrench or Nut Driver.
Attach 4 straight Down Rods(C) to each Angle Bracket(B) using 2 Hex
Bolts(I) and Hex Nuts(J). Tighten with 1/2" Socket Wrench or Nut Driver.
Make sure one side of each Down Rod(C) is facing the inside where the
grids will be and that the Feet on Left and Right Facing Downrods(D &
E) are to the inside.
