FIXING
Firstly, before attempting
to fix the base panel to
the mechanism, it will
be necessary to
remove the mounting
frame, for ease of
working.
Make sure the base panel
lines up squarely, directly
on top of the lifting beam.
Always consult
ML TECHNICAL SHEET
before fabricating any
flaps or base panels.
VIEWING SIDE
1 large hole to be
drilled in base panel.
This hole should be
86mm to allow for
adjustment later.
The hole's centre has
to be 72.5mm away
from the back edge
of the base panel.
DETAIL A
SCALE 1 : 5
Try to use as many self adhesive pads
as possible to get the most secure fixture.
Remove the screen mount from the mechanism and put the
base on the beam. With the base panel on the beam, it will
be possible to mark where the wood screws will need to go
through the support plates into the base panel. Mark
where the holes need to go and then drill a pilot
hole for the screws. Then screw in the
provided wood screws with washers.

Place the mechanism within the cabinet.
Raise the beam to the top and guide base
through the opening in the top. IR remote
STOP button will stop the lift.
With the base properly located, use the 8
pointed screws supplied, 4 on each side,
to pin the mechanism in place, fixing its
position left and right. These 8 screws
should be screwed through the middle
hole of each of the clusters of 3,
shown below right.
With the lift fixed in position, use 8 wood
screws on each side to secure the
lift to the cabinet.
