between 16" O.C. ceiling joists with no framing necessary.
If the building structure has 24" O.C. joists construction,
framing will be required.
1. Position housing between ceiling joists and adjust height
to finished ceiling. Loosen two (2) hex nuts for each mounting
bracket from inside the housing and make the adjustment.
Tighten the four (4) hex nuts.
NOTE: There are four (4) additional mounting slots in the
housing for mounting or relocating the mounting brackets.
2. Refer to Figure 4. Screw housing to joists using holes
in mounting brackets and four (4) screws furnished.
