the position desired and place Ceiling Tile in Grid (by others) (Figure A).
Loosen Wing Nuts on Frame Clamps enough to allow free movement of
Mounting Bars (Figure B).
* Lightolier offers a hole cutter (HC-356) that can be purchased separately
to assist with quick, clean trim installations. In this case, follow the hole
cutting directions supplied with HC-356.
POSITION LUMINAIRE FRAME: Place Luminaire Frame on top of Ceiling Tile and center the frame aperture on the Ceiling Tile

hole cut in Step 1 so that the aperture wall extends into the Ceiling Tile. Orient the Luminaire Frame to align with the grid (Figure
C). Grasp the T-Bar Clips on each end, one in each hand, lift the clips to the top of the adjustment slots in the End bracket, extend
the End brackets to contact the Ceiling Grid, and drop each T-Bar Clip over the Grid (Figure D).
NOTE: When the Luminaire Frame is to be used with Wall Wash Trims make sure to orient the Luminaire Frame side indicated by
a label on the frame towards the wall to be illuminated.
3 CLAMP TO GRID and LOCK LUMINAIRE FRAME: Making certain that the Luminaire Frame is still centered on the Ceiling Tile,
tighten the T-Bar Clip Wing Nuts to attach the frame to the Ceiling Grid (Figure E). Retighten the Wing Nuts on the Frame Lock
Clamps after the frame is positioned satisfactorily and is locked to the Ceiling Grid.
