6. Use the M5 hex screws to secure each side of the plate to the ceiling grid rails.
Support Cable Attachment
Warning! The cable supports should entirely support the plate and attached
equipment. Make sure the cable tension is equal for all four cables, but do not
overtighten so they bend or twist the suspended ceiling grid. It’s the installer’s
responsibility to verify that the structural supports above the suspended ceiling
will safely support the weight of the plate, extension column, and equipment.
Each cable should be installed at a 15° angle from the plate's support hole to the
support anchor.
Wood
Cable support anchors must be installed into wood with a minimum thickness of
1.5 inches (38 mm).
1. Use a 5/32-inch wood drill bit to make four holes 2-inches deep, and then
clean out the debris.
2. Thread a screw eye into each support hole.
3. Insert the eyelet end of the support cable through the eyelet of the screw.
4. Run the loose end of the cable through its eyelet, and pull to tighten around
the screw eye. Repeat for the remaining cables.
Concrete
Warning! Make sure anchors are installed into solid concrete with a minimum
thickness of 1.75 inches (44.5 mm). If concrete exhibits cracking or other defects,
this may result in failure of the anchor and cause serious personal injury or
equipment damage.
1. Use a 5/16-inch (8 mm) concrete drill bit to drill four 2.25-inch (57 mm) deep
holes for each cable support anchor. Make sure the holes are at least 2.5
inches from the edge. Clear the debris from the holes.
2. Use a hammer to tap the concrete anchors into to each hole.
3. Run the anchor screws through the eyelets of the support cables and screw
them into the concrete anchors until secure.
Steel Truss
Loop the cable around the steel truss beam. Run the loose end of the cable
through its eyelet, and pull to tighten. Repeat for the remaining cables.
Cable Locks
1. Run the loose end of a cable into the cable lock, following the arrows as
shown.
2. Insert the loose end through a hole in the plate’s frame.
3. Run the end back through the other side of the cable lock, following the arrow.
Tighten for desired tension.
4. Repeat for the remaining cables.
5. To loosen the cable tension, press down on the push release.
Flush Column Applications
1. Thread the included flush column down through the column support with the
stopper side up.
2. Use the M5 Hex screw to secure the flush column.
3. Snap the escutcheon plate around the column, so it’s flush with the ceiling tile.
Extension Column Applications
1. Thread the extension column (not included) from the bottom, up through the
ceiling tile to the column support.
2. Use the M5 hex screw and hex key to secure the extention column. If your
column has a notch, align it with the M5 hex screw.
3. Snap the escutcheon plate around the extension column, so it’s flush with the
ceiling tile.
