New Installation Lay-in panel T-bar ceilings:
1. Cut ceiling opening slightly larger than the outside diameter on the mounting frame. For flangeless installation, cut ceiling opening slightly larger than the outside of the vertical wall of the injection molded mudring. 4” Ceiling opening: 5-1/4” (13.2cm). 6” Ceiling opening: 7-1/4” (18.4cm).
2. Position mounting frame through opening in ceiling.
For EVO LW and EVO WW installations, refer to label located on mounting frame for proper orientation with respect to the wall to be illuminated as shown in Figure 1. Release
clamping latch arms and adjust channel bars to the correct spacing between T-bar as shown in Figure 2. Secure channel bars to T-bar by means of wire ties, screws or by bending ends onto T-bar as shown in Figure 3.
3. Once mounting frame has been secured in structure, adjust the mounting frame vertically to align the bottom edge to either flush or slightly above (1/8” max) the ceiling line as show n in Figure 4. Secure mounting frame into position by clo sing the c lamping latch arm.
