10.  At the unrolled screen surface (A), peel back the protective 

paper approximately 3/4” on the top and the bottom. This will 
allow the frame to be attached easily to the screen surface. 

 

NOTE: 

 Do not remove the protective paper completely. This 

will be done at the end of the screen installation in order to 
protect the surface during the hanging process.

Da-Lite recommends that the provided gloves (E) be worn at 
this time in order to prevent damage to the screen surface and 
to provide grip while lifting.

11.  Center the first rubber gasket (F) on the screen surface edge 

and press it into place starting at one end. Repeat this step 
for the three remaining sides of the screen.

12.  Place the frame sections (G) around the screen surface (A). 

Attach to frame (G) over the rubber gasket (F) with set screws 
facing upwards. Use a rubber mallet to gently tap the screen 
frame into place if needed (See Figure 5)

Installation (continued)

13.  Place the hoisting bracket (H) in the center of the top and 

bottom sections of the screen frame. Attach to frame using 
the provided cap screws (I) and a 3/16” hex key.

14.  Starting from the center on each side, tighten all set screws 

on all four sides of the frame using the 1/8” hex key. 
Approximately two threads should be visible on each set 
screw when properly tightened.

15.  Prepare to attach the seam brackets (J) and corner brackets 

(K) by carefully sliding the 3/8" x 1/2" hex head screws (L) 
down the frame channel (two bolts on either side of the seam 
and two on each side of each corner).

16.  Carefully slide the seam bracket (J) under the assembled 

frame, aligning the bracket and 3/8" screws (L) across the 
seam.  Secure using the 3/8" thin hex nuts (M) and tighten 
completely.

17.  Repeat for corner brackets (K).
