TABLE OF CONTENTS

• Leave the installation to your TOA dealer because the installation requires expert knowledge. Improper installation may cause the unit to fall, resulting in personal injury and/or property damage.

• Install the unit in a location that can structurally support the weight of the unit and its mounting hardware. Doing otherwise may result in the unit falling down and causing personal injury and/or property damage.

• Do not use other methods than specified to mount the unit. Extreme force is applied to the unit and the unit could fall off, possibly resulting in personal injuries.

• Tighten each screw securely. Ensure that the unit has no loose joints after installation to prevent accidents that could result in personal injury.

• Do not hold the diffuser as a handle to carry the unit. If the diffuser breaks off, the unit falls off, resulting in possible personal injury.

The F-2352SC ceiling speaker can be mounted in 6 different configurations:

Step 1. Cut a ø200 mm (7 7/8") hole in the ceiling.

Use the supplied paper pattern to position and trace the hole.

Mount the speaker using the most appropriate method for the ceiling panel or installation location.

5. INSTALLATION

A dust cover is pre-mounted on the rear of the speaker at the factory. Pay attention not to accidentally take it off during speaker installation.

• Direct mounting to a strong ceiling panel

No additional hardware required.

• Direct mounting to a weak ceiling panel

Use the optional HY-RR2 Reinforcement Ring.

• Mounting to a ceiling frame

Use the optional HY-RR2 in conjunction with the optional HY-TB1 Tile Bar Bridge.

• Ceiling mounting in a larger than specified hole

Use the optional HY-RR2 in conjunction with the optional HY-TR1 Trim Ring.

• Mounting to an anchor bolt

Use the optional HY-RR2 in conjunction with the optional HY-AH1 Anchor Hanging Bracket.

• Hanging from a ceiling suspension pipe (exposed installation)

Use the optional HY-BC1 Back Can.

Step 2. Mount fittings to a ceiling or hanging pipe.

Tip: Skip this step when the ceiling is strong (no additional hardware needed).

2-1. Direct mounting to a weak ceiling panel

Fold the optional HY-RR2 Reinforcement Ring in half* and insert it through the mounting hole in the ceiling panel, then open it with its tabs facing up. Place the ring on the ceiling panel aligning it with the mounting hole.

* The HY-RR2 is too large to be inserted into

the mounting hole unless folded.
