These are the installation instructions for your Digital Projector Mount. Included are four methods of
installation.
Select the method that works best for your viewing situation. The methods are:
NOTE: If the required height range is greater than 12½", the optional SP-LTMT-EXTP could be used to
extend the length of the suspension adapter. For further information or ordering assistance, please contact us
at the phone number and address listed at the top of this column.
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 7lbs the projector you are installing. Consult the projector’s documentation for
weight specifications. If the wall, ceiling, tabletop, shelf, or floor is not strong enough to handle five (5) times
the weight of 7lbs, 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.
