Installing the Projector Mount
Wood stud installation
Step 1
With an electronic stud finder, locate the ceiling stud closest to your desired location for the
KPM-580W.
Once you identify the center of the ceiling stud, use a pencil to mark its location.
Follow the direction of the arrow for positioning the projector screen relative the projector mount.
Step 2
Place the Ceiling Plate into position against the ceiling, aligning the mounting holes with the
center of the stud.
Using the ceiling plate as a template, mark off two (2) mounting holes to be used for securing the
mount.
Step 3
Remove the Ceiling Plate and set it aside.
Next, drill a pilot hole in the center of each mark using a hand held drill and a 1/8˝ drill bit.
Pro tip
Pilot Holes
When a screw is driven into a material, such as wood, it can act as a wedge, generating outward
pressure which can cause the material to split. Drilling a small pilot hole into which a screw is then
driven, less ‘wedging’ takes place, thereby reducing the likelihood of the material being split. It
also prevents the screw head from getting sheared off by torque.
Step 4
Use (2) M10X14 mm wood screws to attach the Ceiling Plate to the wooden stud.
Tighten each screw until the Ceiling Plate is secured against the ceiling.
Do not over tighten the M10x14 mm screws.
If applicable, drill a hole above the mounting hole for wiring access.
