C3FTA FLUSH MOUNT RING INSTALLATION

NOTE: Photos shown here have the frame already
installed. This is not required if there is access
above the ceiling after the ceiling is finished.

1. Using a hole-saw, cut a 3-5/8” hole in the desired
location.

2. Fig. 1 Bring Flush-mount RING to the ceiling line
and install into ceiling by pushing the ring up into the
ceiling while rotating clockwise, ensuring the LIP is
flush to the ceiling line.

3. With ring installed, prepare plaster/compound. Very
little plaster/compound is needed to create a smooth
transition.

4. Fig. 2 Bring plaster/compound up to the ceiling line
using the tool of choice. Starting at the outside of the
BORDER EDGE, evenly build up the
plaster/compound around the entire RING LIP
perimeter.

5. Feather the plaster/compound out away from the
RING until the transition is smooth and acceptable.
Sand away blemishes in the surface if necessary, prior
to finishing.

Note: The installed Reflector Trim will still rotate freely
360+ degrees even after plaster/compound is
installed. Additionally, the ring can be used on all
ceiling thicknesses listed for each trim.
