Installation Instructions (Figure 1)

The DC-remote fixture comes with :

beams covered by drywall.

= Junction box for the DC wire connection.

Both these components can be installed (retrofit) after the drywall put in.
For installation, the cable form the DC remote battery unit must be
passed near a wall stud or ceiling beam. at the installation point, the dry­wall must be marked with an opening hole of 2 to 3 inch diameter near
that stud or beam.

“U” Bracket Installation in the Wall or Ceiling (Figure 2a,b,c)

1. Open a rectanguler hole (8-1/4 inch by 5-3/4 inch) next to the wall
stud or ceiling beam. The hole must have the short opening along the
stud. Use the “U” bracket to mark the dimensions on the drywall.

2. Pass the electrical cable out through the hole.

3. Slide the “U” bracket in the hole: enter the flange side first then push
the other side to the stud.

4. Fix the “U” bracket on the stud or beam with appropriate fasteners

Retract-Lite: DC-Remote Lighting Fixture

Figure 2c

The DC-remote fixture unit includes as an option (specify when order­ing) a hardware kit for installation in T-bar ceiling structures.

1. Remove the four screws installed in the pem-studs of the “U” bracket
and replace them with the longer, 1-inch screws provided in the hard­ware kit. Turn them two - three threades in the pem-studs.

2. Mount the adjustment brackets from the hardware kit on the two
sides of the “U” bracket, using the studs and nuts. Do not tighten (see
Figure 3).

3. Slide hanger bars through the tabs in the adjustment brackets. If
needed, bend the middle tab of the adjustment brackets over the
hanger bars (see Figure 4). Align the “U” bracket as required and fix
location by cutting a hole in the ceiling panel of the size of the “U”
bracket (8-1/4 inch by 5-3/4 inch).

4. Rest the assembly on top of grid members. The n ot ch on bars
should hook over grid member (see Figure 5). Place the “U” bracket
with its flange sit on the panel and tighten the nuts on the studs of the
side brackets (see Figure 4). If required by code, hang the whole
assembly from the framing above ceiling grid with solid wires, (pro­vided by others).

5. Pass the electrical cable out through the hole.
