2b. Apply light downward pressure, as shown above, to maintain the position of the end
bracket flat against the T-bar rail. To secure the end brackets to the T-bar rails, tighten
the pre-installed sheet metal screws using a T25 drive bit. Penetrate through the T-bar
rail until the end bracket is seated fully against the T-bar rail, as shown above. DO NOT
over-tighten the screws. Over-tightening will cause the screw to strip, resulting in an
unsecured bracket connection.
3. Complete the installation by following the applicable instructions in the "Sprinkler
Reducing Nipple Installation," "Sprinkler Installation," and "Ceiling Tile Installation"
sections.
