Fixed Height Ceiling Installation

Complete the following steps to install the projector mount and projector on your ceiling. This installation works best with low ceilings (FIGURE 2).

Note: Look at the bottom of the mount assembly (D) and locate the arrow. Make sure you install the projector mount with the arrow pointing toward your screen.

1.Remove the upper plate from the assembly (D) secure to the ceiling structure using the commercially available hardware (E) suitable for your environment. Be sure that the mount assembly screen indicator arrow is pointing toward your screen.

2.Replace the mount assembly with the upper plate and fully raise the safety knob and tension knobs all the way. Carefully raise the projector (C) with the mounting bracket (B) attached and insert it into the bottom of the mount assembly (D) by its tabs.

3.Rotate the projector (C) with the mounting bracket (B) attached 180º so that the projector’s focus ring is pointing toward your screen.

4.Align the safety knob on the mount assembly (D) with the end of the arrow-shaped slot on the mounting bracket (B) and screw it through the opening to prevent further rotation. Hand-tighten the safety knob.

5.Hand-tighten the remaining two tension knobs to secure the mounting bracket (B) to the mount assembly (D).

CAUTION: Check all of the hardware for proper tightness and security. Do not over-tighten the screws.
