Warning: Improper fastening of the track mount can cause serious injury and/or
property damage. Insure the installation is capable of supporting a weight of at least 200
pounds and an off center load of 500 ft-lbs.
• It is recommended that the head of each mounting bolt be recessed flush or just below the
surface of the plywood pallet. This will allow for easier assembly of the side panels once the
track is mounted. Drill six (6)
bolts. Counterbore the holes to 1" diameter by
along the pallet at the outside edge of the track base extrusion.
Note: The fasteners can also be placed in the interior of the track extrusion if ceiling
conditions do not allow mounting the fixture at the plywood pallet.
• Mark the hole locations on the ceiling structure to match the hole locations on the plywood
pallet. Drill the proper sized pilot or clearance holes in the ceiling structure depending on the
type of fastener that has been chosen.
Note: The next step requires two people to mount the track base. One person is
needed to support the fixture at the ceiling while the other person fastens the bolts.
Failure to use two people could result in equipment damage and/or personal injury.
Proper movement of the trolley requires the track to be mounted to a level ceiling
structure. Check the ceiling with a leveling device in the length and width directions
before mounting the base.
• Install the base to the desired location with six (6)
bolts with flat washers or hex lag screws with washers (hardware is not provided). If
shimming is required (¼" or less), flat washers can be placed between the track pallet and
the ceiling surface to achieve a level installation.
• An electrical junction box is provided if one is not available in the ceiling. Fasten the box as
close as possible to the power cable exiting the back of the track. Route the cable from the
track to the junction box then connect the power source to the cable (figure not shown).
Note: A ground wire is provided and must be fastened to an earth ground to insure
proper grounding reliability for the lighting fixture(s). Wire routing and connections must
be done in accordance to local and national electrical codes.
