Projector Mount Features
The short-throw projector arm (NPLTWM) is one of the most exible and installer-friendly short-throw arms on the market.
It is designed specically for the NEC M300W and M300WS projectors. The mount easily adjusts from 7” to 67” from the
wall if used with the extension arm. Its ne-tune controls lets the installer adjust pitch, roll, and yaw independently. After
aligning the projectors image to the nal projection settings, the mount can be locked in position with one thumb screw.
To make installations even easier, an array of mounting points at the top and bottom of the GearBox™ allows you to
mount the NPLTWM off-center from the stud spacing, if needed. The NPLTWM mounts to dual studs at 16”, 18” or 24”
spacing.
Flexible Mounting Options
Mounts to dual wood studs (16”,
18” or 24” spacing)

Determining the Installation Height
In order to determine the installation height and throw distance, the projector bracket must be mounted
to the projector. Please refer to the projector bracket installation instructions (page 15) prior to performing the
following steps.
Refer to the projector’s User Manual to determine the offset of the projector lens to the top of the
screen/whiteboard (B).
Projector Bracket
Projector
Lens
Measure distance from center of lens to the top of the projector mounting bracket (C).
➊
Add the distance from the ground to the top of the screen (A). Add the projector manufacturers recommended
➋
offset from the projector manual (B), then add the measurement from Step 1 (C). Lastly, add 3.8” to the total.
(Example: A + B + C + 3.8˝= ?)
Add the measurements to determine the mounting height mark. Place a mark at the top of the total calculated
➌
height measurement starting from the ground up. This mark will represent the lower edge of the wall plate.
Legend
A - Distance from ground to the top of the
screen/whiteboard (viewable area).
B - Manufacturers recommended offset
measurement. This measurement will
be listed in the Users Manual.
C - Center of the lens to the top of the projector bracket.
This total distance will be the location for
the bottom rail on the wall plate.

Wood Stud Installation
Do NOT over-tighten lag bolts when attaching the mount to the wall. Improper installation may result in personal
injury or damage to property.
THE EXACT CENTER OF THE STUD MUST BE LOCATED FOR CORRECT AND SAFE INSTALLATION.
Step 1
Use an electronic stud nder (not supplied) to
locate the center of the stud that is in the wall.

Step 2
Use a pencil to mark the rst mounting point, just
above your height mark (from page 6).
Step 3
Use the level to make sure the wall plate is level from
➊
side to side.
Place the wall plate over the rst mounting point mark
➋
and use a pencil to mark the rest of the mounting
points.
Four (4) mounting points must be used. Two (2)
upper mounting points and two (2) lower mounting
points.

Throw Distance Calculation
Please review the Operator’s Manual that came packaged with your projector before attaching the upper
mounting bracket. The correct throw distance (the distance from the projector to the screen) must be
determined prior to mounting the projector.
Refer to the projectors Users Manual to
➊
determine the distance from the lens to
the front of the screen (X).
Measure the distance from the front of
➋
the lens to the center of the projector (Y).
Measure the distance from the wall to the
➌
face of the whiteboard/screen (Z).
Add all measurements (X + Y + Z) to
➍
determine projector placement on the
arm assembly. This measurement
will determine where the center of the
mount bracket will be located on the
arm assembly. Please make note of this
measurement.
The NPLTWM can be also used as
a wall-mounted standard projector mount as
well as a short throw projector mount. Align
the projector facing the opposite direction
from the wall plate to project the image
across the room. Please take into account
the projectors throw capabilities prior to
mounting in the projector opposite direction

Utilizing the Storage Feature
The storage feature may be used to store electronic
components. There is an accessible door on each side of the
storage enclosure. It may be securely held shut with the use of
four (4) M5 x 8mm security head screws. It may be easiest to
pre-wire all cables down the arm (or extension) at this time.
Open the storage door that is located on the
➊
side of the wall plate.
Place the electronic components inside the
➋
storage enclosure.
Make all electronic connections at this time.
➌
Close the storage door and secure using two
