OWI INC. ICM6-730SET (All-N-One) CEILING SPEAKERS – INSTALLATION GUIDE
3
INSTALLATION AND WIRING
The OWI ICM6-730SET speaker installation system has been designed so that the entire
installation can be done from beneath the ceiling. In some cases, with a suspended grid
ceiling, it may be easier to access from both the top and bottom of the ceiling tile during
the installation process. Typical installation hardware needed for either suspended
ceilings or sheetrock ceilings is included.
Cut out the hole using a circular cutter set to
the appropriate cutout size or by tracing the
cardboard cutout template included with
your speakers.
If the wiring had been pre-installed, pull the
wiring through the cutout hole.
All OWI ICM6-730SET speakers come packaged with two types of backing hardware:
1 Split Ring (a c-shaped backing plate)
and
2 Tile Rails
Suspended Ceilings
- Insert the split ring through the hole cut in the ceiling tile. Place
the split ring around the hole with the tabs located as shown in Figure 4. Insert the tile
rails through the hole cut in the ceiling tile. Snap the two rails into the two tabs in the
split ring and align the rails so that the ends extend OVER the T-channel grid on the side
of the tile. Secure the rails onto the split ring tabs by inserting a screw through each tab
into the rail, as shown in Figure 4.
This can all be accomplished from below the ceiling tile if necessary.
SAFETY TIP: IMPORTANT TO USE ALL BRACKETS
ALL included support brackets -split ring and tile rails- MUST be used when installing
into suspended ceiling tiles. A support safety line must always be installed (see Step 6)
Step 1 – Cut the Hole
Step 2 – Install Split Ring and/or Tile Rail
