Afterwards, fiddle with the hook and pull it back through the CGB. Tighten the lock ring and you're done!
If you have only one hole or to finish the larger ones, simply thread a string or rope down the hole with a hooked rod/wire attached. Go downstairs and place the CGB onto the hook. Go back upstairs and pull the CGB into place. Screw on the lock ring and tighten.
