Stacking Frame Installation Instructions

Introduction

Use the following instructions when installing stacking frames onto the models listed in
Table 1. Only use the stacking frame provided by Christie (104-117101-01) to hoist or
stack a maximum of three projectors. The stacking frame can also be connected to the
integral rigging points on any Roadster/Mirage S+ and Roadster HD12k projectors. For
information on the rigging hardware of these models, refer to section 2.2 Installation
Considerations in the Roadster S+/HD & Mirage S+ User’s Manual.

Stacking Frame Installation Instructions

Warnings

Christie stacking hardware is required to prevent the top projector from sliding

off the stack. Failure to incorporate this hardware may cause injury or death.

This procedure must only be performed by a qualified service technician.

The frame is designed to support a maximum stacking capacity of three

projectors. Always stack before hoisting.

Never attempt to physically carry a stack of projectors. Always follow the

Hoisting Procedure, outlined on page 6.

Use metric hardware only. Never force incompatible threads.

Always use all rigging points.

The stacking frame handles have a maximum load capacity of 360 lbs.

The projectors can be stacked and hoisted in either an upright or inverted

position. Do not mix orientations in a stack (i.e. inverted and upright).

All rigging must be in compliance with applicable local safety codes.

Only licensed riggers should perform the procedures outlined in this document.

ALWAYS power down and unplug the projector prior to servicing.

Wait for the internal cooling fans to stop before unplugging the unit.

WARNING

To avoid possible injury, a minimum of two

1. Turn the projector OFF and disconnect the AC power cord after the cooling fans
have stopped. Allow the projector to cool for at least 45 minutes.

2. Place the projector into the stacking frame so the cut-outs in the bottom mounting
plate of the frame align with the fold mirror and adjustable feet access points on the
projector. Refer to Figure 2.

3. Use a 10mm socket wrench to tighten the six (6) M10 bolts securing the mounting
plate to the bottom of the projector. Refer to Figure 2.

Hoisting Procedure, outlined on page 6.

When hoisting a stack combining Roadster/Mirage S+ and Roadster HD12K

models with any of the models listed in Table 1, use the hardware provided with
the Roadster/Mirage S+ and Roadster HD12K models to hoist the stack.

1. Place the first projector in the stack on a secure table or cart.
For upright stack:

on the table or cart. Ensure the adjustable feet are NOT
projector. When installing the second and third projector in the stack the feet must
be retracted. All projectors must be stacked in the same orientation.

For inverted stack:

on the table or cart. Ensure the adjustable feet ARE
installing a second and third projector. All projectors must be stacked in the same
orientation.
