Installation Requires a
Laser Leveling Device
A Hilti PR-15 rotating laser leveling device is used
to level the rail during installation. Set the beam to
intersect with a prominent horizontal feature on the
rail.
WARNING! Wear protective eyewear
when using a laser leveling device. Refer
to the device manufacturer’s instructions
for additional safety precautions.
1. Install Threaded Rods
Threaded rods secure the rail system to the ceiling.
Each rod attaches to the ceiling using one of the
following methods:
- Direct into the ceiling
- To red iron ceiling supports using a “fast grip”
system such as a HILTI MF C31/8
- To a suspension bar such as a HILTI MQ-41
between red iron when ceiling supports are
spaced more then 2.5m (8.2ft) apart.
The bottom of each rod attaches to a stirrup at the
top of the rail section.
Tools, Equipment, and Parts Required for
this Operation
• Proper lift equipment (scissor lift with extended
work platform is recommended)
• Hilti PR-15 rotating laser leveling device
• String line
• M8 threaded rods (one per rail section)
• Saw (to cut rods)
• M8 nuts (one per rod).
Procedure
Note: Observe space requirements (page 3).
A. Run a string line.
• Centered along the rail route
• 10cm (4in) higher than the top of the rail.
Tack the string in place.
B. Install the first threaded rod.
Each rod supports a rail section at its center.
Install the first rod 1.25m (5.1ft) from where the
first 2.5m rail section is to start.
C. Install subsequent threaded rods.
From the first rod, install subsequent rods every
2.5m (8.2ft) along the string line to the point
where the last rail section will be located.
D. Thread nuts.
On each rod, thread a nut up until its bottom
touches the string line and 5cm (2in) of rod is
below the nut.
E. Saw off any extra rod length beyond 5cm
(2in). Do not use a cutter.
