Installation to Wood Joist Ceilings

WARNING

Installer must verify that the supporting surface will safely support the combined load of the equipment and all attached hardware and components.

Tighten wood screws so that wall plate is fi rmly attached, but do not overtighten. Overtightening can damage the screws, greatly reducing their holding power.

Never tighten in excess of 80 in. • lb (9 N.M.).

Make sure that mounting screws are anchored into the center of the stud. The use of an "edge to edge" stud fi nder is highly recommended.

Hardware provided is for attachment of mount through standard thickness drywall or plaster into wood studs. Installers are responsible to provide hardware for other types of mounting situations (not evaluated ny UL).

2Place projector mount assembly (A) on ceiling as a template and mark the center of the two mounting holes. Make sure that the mounting holes are in the center of the wood joist. Drill two 5/32" (4mm) dia. holes to a minimum depth of 2-1/2" (64mm). Attach projector mount assembly (A) with two #14 x 2-1/2" (6mm x 64mm) wood screws (D) and two fl at washers (F) as shown in fi gure 2.1 or fi gure 2.2 depending on joist orientation.

Tighten wood screws (D) using 3/8" (10mm) socket wrench or phillips screwdriver until projector mount assembly (A) is fi rmly attached.
