Installation Steps
- Measure and mark the finished ceiling elevation.

- Fit the main-carrier hangers and light-steel main carriers. Adjust their height and level, keeping the carriers parallel.
- Connect the B-style baffle carriers to the main carriers using strip hangers. Keep the secondary carriers parallel to one another, perpendicular to the main carriers and no more than 1,200 mm apart.
- Clip the teardrop baffles into the B-style baffle carriers and make the final alignment adjustments.
- Keep hands clean during installation. Avoid sweat, oil and other contamination on the finished surface.
