Before Installation
Prior to enclosure construction and lift assembly, please read through the below warnings and recommendations to ensure a successful installation!
PINCH POINT WARNING!
•Improper construction of lift enclosure can create dangerous pinch points. It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure the intended use of this product does not create hazardous pinch zones. Installation design should prevent users from inserting objects between moving parts and fixed objects! Failure to do so may result in serious injury or property damage.
LIFT STABILITY:
•The Lift System should be installed into material at least ¾” thick on both the back and bottom surfaces. The Lift Column is ONLY authorized and tested in a vertical, upright orientation. For enclosures not secured structurally, be sure that enclosure does not create a tip hazard when the lift is in the open position. DO NOT MOUNT THE LIFT SYSTEM UPSIDE DOWN (AS IN A CEILING MOUNT), OR SIDEWAYS (AS IN A LATERAL MOUNT)!
ENCLOSURE DIMESIONS:
•Before constructing the enclosure carefully consider the dimensions of the TV to be used and the lift mechanism. If possible “dry fit” (see next page) the TV to the lift mechanism prior to building the enclosure to ensure proper fit and function.
LARGE TV’S:
•With larger televisions the lift unit or lid may need extended to properly fit into the enclosure. The most common application will be to use a spacer block (not included) and corner brackets (part #12) to elevate the lift mechanism to allow for greater TV height.
FLOATING TOP:
•With floating top installations, it is important to center the lift within the enclosure and center the cabinet top on the lift. With included hardware, the cabinet lid is NOT designated as a weight bearing surface. For safety reasons the cabinet top should be constructed in a “floating” configuration using the guide pins provided to prevent pinch points. See guide pin template in appendix for recommendation.
