STEP 1

Using a stud finder (available at low cost at most hardware stores) or other accu- rate method, locate center point between two joists and mark. Using template provided, trace hole pattern on surface of ceiling

STEP 2

Using a sabre saw, keyhole saw or very sharp utility knife, cut hole in wall, fol- lowing traced pattern.

STEP 3

Run loudspeaker wires to sound source location. There are several methods you can use to accomplish wiring, depending on the construction characteristics of the room or house. You can add a professional touch to your installation by using a speaker terminal plate at the source location. Leave sufficient amount of wire at speaker location (8 to 10 inches) to complete connection.

STEP 4

Attach loudspeaker wires to speaker terminals, observing correct polarity, and position speaker frame up into cutout. Be careful not to pinch wires in the pro- cess.

STEP 5

Carefully tighten the four mounting screws. This will cause the mounting wings to rotate out behind the mounting surface and secure the speaker in place.

STEP 6

After the speaker panel is secured tightly, test for sound. When you are satisfied the speaker is operational, affix grill. As the MODEL 612C and MODEL 812C grills are designed for a snug fit, you’ll need to position one edge into slot first, and press or squeeze around perimeter of grill, while pushing leading edges into grill slot. The MODEL 512C grill can be installed into the speaker frame for either a standard flush mount cosmetic appearance or a recessed look similar to coilex type of light fixture. After deciding which look is preferred press the grill into the frame until the leading edge is flush.
