2. Twist the loudspeaker clockwise a few
degrees so the Twist-Assist™ face tabs are
positioned at the left of the face slots as you look
at the front face (see Figures 30 and 31).
3. Four 4mm sheet metal screws come from
the factory partially inserted into the plastic face.
Use a screwdriver to install these captive screws
into the can. Tighten so they are snug against the
face, but do not over-tighten them. See Figure 32.
Note: Some codes now require that the grille have a safety
cable; your local codes may vary. In any case, Community
makes it easy to comply with an included security cable
system, as detailed in Steps 4 through 6.
Secure the Loudspeaker In the Back Can
When you have made the electrical connections
from the wires coming into the can to the
loudspeaker then you can mount that loudspeaker
into the can.
1. Four Twist-Assist™ face tabs protrude just
inside the can opening. Align the four slots along
the periphery of the loudspeaker face with the
Phillips-head can clamp actuators. The actuators
should be positioned so that they are at the far
right of the slots (viewed through the slot from the
front of the loudspeaker).
Figure 31. Four Twist-Assist™ face tabs
inside the back can instantly secure the
loudspeaker to the back can with a twist.
