Procedure steps

Action
1
Secure a safe work environment. Obtain a ladder that allows
easy access to the ceiling grid system.
2
Identify an appropriate location on the ceiling grid where the
ceiling T-bars are safely accessible and where the ceiling tiles
can be temporarily elevated and cleared away from the work
area. The adaptor bracket assembly is intended for use with the
thin section grid runners, not the thicker section runners used to
cross large spans. To provide access for hands and tools, use a
pair of pencils or sticks to hold up the ceiling tiles out of the grid.
Doing this provides easy access for securing the bracket to the
grid.
3
Mount the larger bracket to the grid. While installing, pay
attention to the width of the grid strip in order to ascertain the
appropriate orientation for the smaller bracket which is installed
next.
4
Mount the interlocking small bracket to the large bracket and
clamp the two pieces together on the grid. The smaller bracket
has tabs formed into it which engage slots in the larger tab. This
allows the two parts to slide together and lock to one another.
When this is done, the two brackets effectively clamp themselves
around the ceiling grid. When the two halves of the bracket are
correctly slid together, the captive fastener in the small bracket
should engage threads provided in the larger bracket. Use a
screwdriver to screw down the captive fastener. Securing the
two brackets in this manner is essential to prevent them from
disengaging from one another. Tighten the captive fastener
screw securely.
