Use drill point screws to install one mounting
bracket on each end of the troffer fixture. If a third
mounting bracket is present, install it in the center of
the troffer. Make sure all the mounting brackets’ tab
is in the same orientations.
10 Snap the light engines into the mounting brackets.
If two light engines are included in the kit, the
center mounting bracket serves to hold the two
light engines in the center of the troffer.
Care should be taken to install the mounting bracket
in the center (vs. width) of the troffer. The brackets
feature an oval hole to help in the alignment process.
11 If two light engines are included in the kit and
there is only one driver, install two jumper wires
between the 4ft. light engines.
12 Connect the red wire to the (+) terminal and
the blue wire to the (-) terminal of the push-in
connector on the end of the light engine.
13 Install the lens over the light engine(s) and make
sure it snaps in place.
