Assembly and Mounting
–
Things to Think About First
SAFETY NOTICE:
For proper support, the Lift System MUST NOT be attached to any material that is less than ¾”
thick. This applies to BOTH the back and bottom mounting points.
The Lift Column is ONLY designed and rated for VERTICAL, NON-INVERTED USE.
DO NOT
MOUNT THIS LIFT SYSTEM UPSIDE DOWN or SIDEWAYS (HORIZONTALLY, AS IN A LATERAL MOUNT)!
TIP:
Inverted (drop down) lift systems are available from Nexus 21. Contact Customer Service at
(866) 500-5438.
Space requirements for the DL-45B Lift System are as follows:
Depth = TV Depth x 2 + 10
”, or
16
”
minimum.
Height = TV
2.5”
, or a minimum of 29.5
”
, whichever is greater.
Width =
TV Width + 2”, or 43.5” whichever is greater.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
The TV must be mounted
as high up as possible inside the cabinet,
so that when
the Lift is in the fully “DOWN” position (fully retracted), the top of the TV will be just underneath the
lid of the cabinet.
Lift System height and mounting position:
The Top Support Brackets (Part #8) allow you to adjust the installation height of the Lift
up to 8” (in ½”
increments) to fit your cabinet height. When fully assembled, the height of the Lift will be a minimum of 29.5
”
and a maximum of 37.5
”
with the Top Support Brackets in the highest position. If the inside height of your
cabinet is taller than this, you will need to mount the lift higher up inside the cabinet.
About the Cabinet Lid (Cabinet Top)
SAFETY NOTICE -- REFER TO PAGE 4:
WARNING! YOU MUST NOT DIRECTLY SCREW THE CABINET LID (TOP) TO THE LIFT SYSTEM!!
THIS CREATES HAZARDOUS
“PINCH POINTS” AND MAY AFFECT THE OPERATION OF THE LIFT OR
CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE CABINET TOP.
For floating lids,
DO NOT USE SCREWS to attach the lid to the Lift System
. Instead, use the
“Threaded Taper Pins”
. This will keep the lid firmly in place, but will also allow it to
separate from the
lift system
if anything (like a finger) gets in the way when the TV lowers.
Which Lid Style Will You Use? (There are 2 Different Styles)
–
Hinged Lid Not Compatible
Floating Lid (Floating Top)
–
The whole top of the cabinet sits on top of the Lift System and raises/lowers with
the TV. This is the standard Installation method, using the Top Plate (part #8) and Threaded Taper Pins.
Cut-Out Floating Lid (Top)
–
You will “cut out” part of your cabinet top, customizing it to the size of your TV.
That cut-out lid then sits on top of the Lift System and raises/lowers with the TV. This method uses the Top
Plate (part #8) and Threaded Taper Pins, but you mu
st set up a “catch” for the cut
-out lid so that when the TV
lowers, the lid stops level with the rest of your cabinet top (like a manhole cover).
NOTE:
There are several different methods for setting u
p the “catch”, but the hardware
to do it is not included with the Lift System because it is part of the cabinet. Hardware
suggestions include: buy 4 small corner brackets and screw to underside of main top, with
edges exposed to catch the corners of the cut-out lid. The same thing can be accomplished
wi
th 1”
x
1” “cleats”, which are strips of hardwood, mounted underneath, with edges
exposed to catch the lid.
