Line up bot-
tom edge of ADJUSTABLE MOUNTING BAR with bottom of wood joist.
Fasten MOUNTING FRAME to wood joist by nailing MOUNTING BAR
TAB or nail into joist.
SUSPENDED GRID CEILING (FIG. G):
Position notched area of ADJUSTABLE MOUNTING BARS on top of T-
BAR for proper spacing to finished ceiling. Lock MOUNTING BARS by
bending TAB underneath T-BAR BEAD (Fig. G1). For round T-BAR BEAD,
use screws to lock MOUNTING BARS (Fig. G2).
WIRE TO SUPPLY LEADS:
For cable, use built-in cable clamp in J-Box. Connect white fixture
leads to neutral (white) supply leads. Black fixture leads to hot (black)
supply leads. Bare fixture wire to supply ground. Use wirenuts (local
hardware item). Place all electrical connections in the J-Box, attach J-
Box cover.
NOTE:
ADJUSTABLE MOUNTING BARS are pre-assembled on long side of
MOUNTING FRAME for rigidity and ease of installation (Fig. E).
MOUNTING BARS must be removed and installed on narrow side of
MOUNTING FRAME if installing in 16” joist spacing (Fig. F).
MOUNTING BARS can be extended to 24”. The MOUNTING FRAME
can be mounted off-center.
For suspended ceilings, make certain that bottom of MOUNTING
FRAME is no higher than 1” above finished ceiling (Fig. G).
2. CLOSE-IN (FIG. B)
Install plasterboard or other dry type ceiling. Hole in board can be cut
either on floor or after the board is secured in the ceiling. Use MOUNT-
