INSTALLATION
Floor & Ceiling Requirements
This Ceiling Mounted Trapeze Assembly must only be installed in locations
where the construction of the ceilings are structurally sound.
STEP 1: Join the Ceiling Channel Assembly with the Pole Upper Tube
First put on safety glasses and then you must partly assemble the Ceiling
Channel. Take Part B and slide it into the end of the Ceiling Channel part A.
Tighten the two BHC Bolts in Part B to secure Part B while you are assembling
the Ceiling Mounted Trapeze.
STEP
2: Locate the Ceiling Joists.
OPTION 1:
Mount Ceiling Channel spanning two ceiling joists;
Locate the joists behind the ceiling membrane and mark them. Using a stud
finder is recommended.
OPTION 2:
Mount Ceiling Channel lengthways along one joist;
Locate the joist behind the ceiling membrane and mark it. Using a stud finder
is recommended.
OPTION 3:
For Solid Construction Ceilings;
Solid Ceilings are common in apartment buildings. The Trapeze can be mounted
anywhere on this type of construction. The fasteners for this option are not
supplied.
STEP 3: Screw the
Ceiling Channel to the Ceiling Joists or Solid Ceiling:
OPTION 1: Mount Ceiling Channel spanning two ceiling joists:
Move the Ceiling Channel Assembly until it is spanning the two rafters that
you marked and will attach to. Mark the two holes through the Channel, one
each end. Move the Channel and drill 5/32 inch pilot holes for the wood
screws. Put the Channel back into position and screw the Channel to the Joists
using the wood screws supplied.
OPTION 2: Mount Ceiling Channel lengthways
along one joist:
Move the Ceiling Channel Assembly until it is along the joist that you marked
and will attach to. Mark the two holes through the center of the Channel. Move
the Channel and drill 5/32 inch pilot holes for the wood screws. Put the
Channel back into position and screw the Channel to the Joist using the wood
screws supplied.
OPTION 3: For Solid
Construction Ceilings:
Locate the Channel where you wish to attach the Trapeze. Mark the four holes
through the Channel, two each end. Move the Channel and drill the holes to
suit the hardware that you have selected to screw the Channel to the Ceiling.
Put the Channel back into position and securely attach the Channel to the
Ceiling. STEP 4: Trapeze Alignment:
Decide where you want the Trapeze located along the Channel and then securely
tighten the two BHC Bolts in the Sliding Channel. Finally securely tighten the
Bolt and Nut in the angle hinge.
STEP 5: Add the trim parts to the Ceiling Channel:
Take the Channel Trim Strip Part C, and slide into one end of the Ceiling
Channel Part A. Mark it at the end of the channel, cut where the mark is and
slide it back into the channel. Repeat this on the other side of the channel.
Now screw the two plastic End Caps Part D onto each end of the channel using a
philips screw driver.
Installer Note: You can cut the Channel Trim Strips using strong scissors
or a fine blade hack-saw.
