If applicable, drill 2" dia. hole through finished

Remember that the hole will have to
align exactly with the hole in the lower

into each ceiling joist. Leave just enough
exposed thread to engage with upper keyslots
in ends of extension brackets (C & D).

engage UPPER KEYSLOTS (lower keyslots
not to be used) over heads of screws. An offset
screwdriver may be required. Insert two
remaining #10 x 3/4" phillips screws (A), one
through each center hole in each extension

screws.

cases, bonding agent such as Loctite
