Before You Start the Installation

The wall or ceiling where you want to install the digital projector must be capable of supporting a weight that is five (5) times the weight of 6lbs the projector you are installing. Consult the projector’s documentation for weight specifications. If the wall, ceiling, tabletop, shelf, or floor is not strong en ough to handle five (5) times the weight of 6lbs, then you must reinforce the installation environment. If you are unsure about the installation environment, please consider having it reinforced and having the projector installed by qualified personnel. Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury and damage to the projector.

• To avoid personal injury, use only an approved projector mount. Using an unauthorized projector mount may lead to poor ventilation and projector failure.

• When installing the projector mount, keep in mind that the projector’s focus ring is not squarely in the center of the front of the projector, but offset by several inches. Make sure that when you mount the projector you offset the installation to match the amount of inches that the projector’s focus ring is offset from the center of the front of the projector.
