INSPECT THE UNIT BEFORE INSTALLING
1. Carefully inspect the Universal Ceiling Projector Mount for
shipping damage. If any damage is apparent, call your carrier
claims agent and do not continue with the installation until the
carrier has reviewed the damage.
NOTE: Read all instructions before starting installation.
2. Lay out components to ensure you have all the required parts
before proceeding (see “PARTS & DIMENSIONS” on page 3).
PREPARE THE CEILING
Because of the wide variety of possible mounting situations, Dell
Computer Corporation can only provide general guidelines for
installation. Study the following information carefully, and adapt it
as necessary to fit your specific installation.
WARNING: Be especially aware of the weight of the equipment, and the potential for personal injury or of damage to the
equipment if it is not adequately mounted.
The “General Guidelines” below and the information on the follow-
ing pages cover the most common mounting situations:
• Suspended from an adjustable column secured to a structural cross brace in the ceiling.
• Standard fasteners secured to a wood framing member.
• Suspended from threaded rods that are secured to the structural cross brace
General Guidelines
• Carefully determine the position of the Universal Ceiling Projector Mount, and its distance from the screen. This will require
knowing the lens to screen distance (see projector specifications for set-up).
WARNING: Improper installation can result in serious personal injury! To avoid such injury, make sure that the ceil-
ing structural members can support a redundant weight factor
five times the total weight of the equipment you intend
to support overhead. If they cannot, the ceiling must be reinforced before you install the Universal Ceiling Projector
Mount.
