4. Slide the “male” and “female” bars together and determine if the
hanger bar has been shortened enough. If not, separate the
“male” and “female” bars and break off additional material at the
next crease and notch. Continue to break off material until
proper length is achieved. Do not break off any more material
than necessary.
5. Once proper length is achieved, separate the “male” and
“female” bars. Slide the “female” bars into the guides of the
plaster frame. Slide the “male” bars into the “female” bars.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN
1. To ensure the success of the installation, be sure to read these
instructions and review the diagrams thoroughly before
beginning.
2. All electrical connections must be in accordance with local code,
ordinances. If you are unfamiliar with methods of installing
electrical wiring, secure the services of a qualified licensed
electrician.
3. Before starting the installation, disconnect electricity at the circuit
breaker or the fuse box. Disconnecting power by using the wall
switch is not sufficient to prevent electrical shock.
4. Check if the power source is suitable for the added electrical
load. Power should be supplied by a 110/120 volt, 60 Hz single
circuit. A standard 120 volt, 15 amp branch circuit is designed to
carry a maximum load of 1800 watts. We recommend that the
total wattage of all the lights and appliances on that circuit, not
exceed 80% or 1440 watts, of the maximum electrical capacity.
5. This product has a special feature, which secures the NM
(Romex) cable to the junction box, in lieu of a cable connector.
This feature will not work with BX (armored) cable. For BX
cable, cable connectors need to be purchased separately. See
the ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONSsection.
6. This is a new-construction fixture. This new-construction
fixture can be installed in applications where the ceiling surface
has yet to be installed and the ceiling joists are exposed, such
as when a home is under new construction. If a ceiling surface
already exists and there is no access above the ceiling surface,
do not use this fixture. A remodel fixture is recommended,
instead. This fixture may also be installed onto a drop ceiling,
where there is a standard T-bar grid in place.
UNPACK THE FIXTURE
Check the contents of the box. You should have:
1 - Housing/Hanger Bar Assembly, 1 - Cardboard Circular Template,
3 - “Quick-Connect” Wire Connectors (inside junction box)
PREPARING AND MOUNTING THE FIXTURE
HANGER BAR PREPARATION
The hanger bars are designed for joists that are spaced 16 to 26
(center to center) apart. If the joists are less than 16 apart, the
hanger bars must be shortened to accommodate the narrower
space. To shorten them:
1. Remove the hanger bars from the plaster frame. This may
require opening the guides of the plaster frame using pliers.
2. Spread the bars as wide as possible. (FIG. 2)
3. For each hanger bar, bend the “male” bar, back and forth at the
1
st
crease from the center until it splits. Bend the “female” bar,
back and forth, at the 1st notch from the center until it splits.
