Deluxe Model B

Installation Setting Up Your Screen

The Deluxe Model B must be suspended from the ceiling or used
with extension type wall brackets to allow room for the
Automatic Tensionizer.

For Wall Mounting

Special extension wall brackets such
as Da-Lite’s No. 6, No. 11 or No. 23
brackets must be used if screen is
to be wall mounted. Check with your
dealer to determine which best its
your needs.

Brackets should be fastened
securely to a solid surface such as a
wooden reinforcement board and
not in the plaster only. Rarely will
wall studs be found to support both
ends of a screen. Various types of
fasteners are available from local
hardware stores.

For Ceiling Suspension

If the screen is to be ceiling
mounted, two screw hooks should
be placed in a beam or other solid
surface. For drop ceilings, Da-Lite’s
TBar Clips may be purchased.

These illustrations (all rear views for simpliication) show how
easy the Deluxe Model B Screen is to operate.

1. Remove plastic protective wrap from handle and tension arm.

2. To start unrolling the picture surface,
pull down on cord pull knob. Then
with hand resting on the handle, pull
screen down.

3. The automatic tension arm moves into
position in a precision-like manner.

4. When surface is down, a simple press
of contour-shaped handle locks it into
position… ready for the show!

5. To re-roll picture surface–press irmly
downward and counter-clockwise on lat
handle to release lock. Permit surface to
re-roll rapidly into case. Control upward
movement by lightly holding handle or
cord pull knob.

PROTECT YOUR SCREEN by keeping it rolled in its case when
not in use. Always examine both front and back of surface before
re-rolling into case to make certain screen is free of dust, dirt or
other foreign matter. Use a very soft duster to gently remove
any foreign particles.
