Section 3 -
Hanging Screen and Methods of Installation
CAUTION:
Product is very heavy:
Installer must provide adequate attachment hardware
and anchors as required. Installer must also ensure that structure is of adequate strength.
CAUTION:
Case must be mounted low enough from ceiling to gain access to bracket
screws.
General Information
When locating viewing surface and checking clearance for screen’s operation, remember surface
is centered in case. Handle case carefully to protect its finish.
Regardless of mounting method, screen should be positively and securely supported so that
vibration or even abusive pulling on the viewing surface will not cause case to work loose or fall.
Installer must ensure that fasteners used are of adequate strength and suitable for the mounting
surface chosen.
Wall Installation
(Fig. 1)
Mount screen through holes in back of endcaps as shown. Installer should
furnish screws, toggle bolts, molly bolts, nylon, or lead anchors as required.
Suspended Installation
(Fig. 2)
Suspend screens from holes in endcaps as shown. “S” hooks, chains
(or
cable)
, and turnbuckles should be provided by installer. “S” hooks should
go through the front holes on the endcaps, and
both ends of “S” hooks
should be crimped for additional safety
.
Chains should be attached to beams or other structural members.
Turnbuckles should be adjusted so screen hangs level.
