INSTALLATION
This projector lift is designed to be installed in the space between a dropped ceiling and
the primary ceiling structure. The lift itself need to be mounted to the primary structure,
which must be capable of supporting four times the weight of the lift and the projector
itself. This lift weighs 48.1 lbs. (21.8 kg) and the maximum weight of any installed projector is
44 lbs (20 kg).
1.
Once the mounting location has been selected, measure the distance between the
surface of the ceiling and the primary ceiling structure, to which the lift must be
mounted. We will refer to this distance with the variable H.
2.
If H is less than 11.8" (300mm), the lift can be mounted directly to the primary ceiling
structure. If H is greater than or equal to 11.8", you will need to use M10 threaded
rods (not included) to mount the lift at the correct height.
3.
Use the cardboard template to mark the mounting locations on the primary ceiling
structure.
4.
Mount the lift to the primary ceiling structure. Use a carpenter's level to ensure that
the lift is perfectly level. Failure to properly level the lift can result in improper
operation and damage to the lift.
5.
Remove the cover plate from the
conveyor chain, then run the projector's
power and video cables through the
conveyor chain. Reinstall the cover
plate. Do not attempt to thread the
cables through the conveyer chain
without first removing the cover plate.
