YOU HAVE MADE A WISE
SELECTION…
in choosing a Da-Lite projection
screen, designed and engineered
to produce the sharpest, most
pleasing pictures with maximum
convenience.
WALL MOUNTING
TO OPEN SCREEN
1. Select fasteners of proper type for wall or
ceiling involved.
2. Insert fasteners through proper openings
provided in back side of end caps.
3. Attach screen securely to studding or other
solid surface - never to plaster only.
4. MAKE SURE SCREEN IS MOUNTED LEVEL.
Pull down on pull bail until desired picture area is
obtained. Lock into position as on a window
shade. Be sure surface is locked before
releasing.
NOTE: This screen will not lock into position in
the upper portion of its travel.
SUGGESTED
METHODS
OF
INSTALLATION
FOR WALL
FOR
CEILING
Model C with CSR (Controlled Screen Return) is
a feature offered exclusively by Da-Lite to assist
the quiet controlled return of the screen into the
case.

CEILING MOUNTING
1. Heavy screw hooks may be installed into
wood joists. Other types of hooks or chain
may be used for other ceilings or for stage
installations.
2. Insert hooks or chain through proper
openings provided in sides of end caps.
Screen must hang so that flat back of
case is perpendicular to floor.
3. MAKE SURE SCREEN IS MOUNTED
LEVEL.
PRECISION SEAMING
Large screens will have one or more horizontal
seams. Seams are standard and necessary in
large size screens since surfaces are limited to
the available fabric size.
Da-Lite Perma-Sealed seams are made by
butting carefully matched edges of two panels
together and fastening with special tape that is
sealed to the reverse side. These seams are
guaranteed not to separate. Seams in a picture
surface should not be construed as patched or
defective. In use, the seam will be virtually
invisible in the projected picture.
TO RE-ROLL YOUR PICTURE SURFACE
The Model C operates on the same principle
as a window shade. Pull down about 6 inches
to disengage the locking pawl and start the
fabric up firmly and quickly.
Large picture surfaces are heavy and will start
up too slowly to prevent the locking pawl from
catching unless help is provided, so keep
picture surface moving briskly.
Should the locking pawl catch, pull the picture
surface down about 6 inches and start the
surface up rapidly.
The CSR feature of this screen will allow the
screen to stop, as normal, in the bottom portion of its travel. The screen will not stop in the
top portion of its travel, but will continue slowly and gently into the case.
PROTECT YOUR SCREEN
Before re-rolling surface into case, examine
both front and back of surface to be sure they
are free of foreign matter.
