Section 10 -
Installing Ceiling Closure
If unit is equipped with a ceiling closure system, use either as is, or in conjunction with a
piece of existing ceiling tile.
1.
If installing with ceiling tile, it may be necessary to cut tile so overall dimensions
are same as
(or slightly less than)
closure panel. Place tile into trim frame. Lay closure
panel on top
(back side)
of ceiling tile, and tighten screws to hold in place.
2.
If installing large closure, attach brackets to bottom of projector plate.
3.
Attach
5/16
"
(8mm)
threaded rods to slots in projector plate or brackets.
CAUTION:
Ensure bolts and nuts attaching brackets to AeroLift are completely
tightened.
4.
Run unit "up" until bottom pan stops at highest position. Mark position on
5/16
"
(8mm)
rods flush with ceiling level and cut rods to length
(removing from pan if convenient)
.
5.
Run unit "down" until bottom pan stops at "show" position.
6.
Attach closure to lower end of
5/16
"
(8mm)
rods by slipping into four corner slots and
secure with nuts above and below slots.
7.
Run unit "up" again to highest position. Measure distance by which panel fails to
reach required "closed" height for surrounding ceiling.
CAUTION:
Make sure nuts are completely tightened.
8.
Run unit "down" then re-adjust mounting of
5/16
"
(8mm)
rods in traveling grid to raise
panel required distance.
9.
Test unit operation to confirm that panel will stop in closed position just before
touching ceiling.
CAUTION:
DO NOT hang from, "ride," or pull down on unit. This could create a
failure and cause damage and/or injury.
PLEASE NOTE:
Immediately upon completing surrounding ceiling, operate unit to
confirm that optional ceiling closure panel stops
1/8
"
(3mm)
short of ceiling in closed
position. If closure panel touches ceiling, motor may continue operating after lift is
closed. If it continues to cycle once lift is closed, a failure may occur, making unit
descend rapidly and cause damage and/or injury.
