Installation and assembly - Universal Adapter Plate
Note: The projector you are installing may differ in appearance from the sample illustrated below.
Place projector upside down. Locate adapter plate (L) with notch facing forward as close to projector center of
gravity as possible without covering any mounting holes. Loosen channels, and if there are only three mounting
holes remove fourth channel. Using one channel for each mounting hole, position feet of channels over mounting
holes as shown below. Important: If projector does not have at least three mounting holes, do not use this
adapter plate.
Note: Some projectors have feet which can be removed and the corresponding threaded insert can be used for a
mounting hole.
Note: Once channels are in position retighten fasteners.
*Notch indicates front of projector.

Generic Projector
Attach adapter plate (L) to projector using one screw (M, N, O, or P) for each channel as shown below. T ighten
all screws, while keeping the center of gravity . Be sure that adapter plate (L) is straight. Adjust the feet of the
channels to keep the adapter plate level. Tighten all screws with 4 mm security allen wrench (B) or wrench
provided with projector mount, while keeping the center of gravity . If M3 screws are used, tighten using 2 mm
security allen wrench (Q).Note: Projectors will require different size screws for mounting. Use a combination of screws (M, N, O, or P) and
foot adjustment that will result in channels of adapter plate (L) fitting tightly against projector . Important: In order
to properly engage the threads in the mounting holes, the screw must be turned at least 3 full turns.
Note: If using screw (M), place washer (R) between screw (M) and foot of channel.
CAUTION
• It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that the
projector is properly ventilated. Feet of channels are
used to raise the mount off the projector surface.

Installation To Wood Joist Finished Ceilings,
Exposed Wood Joists, or Wood Beam Ceilings
Drill two 5/32" (4 mm) dia. holes to a minimum
depth of 2.5" (64 mm). Attach ceiling plate (G)
with two #14 x 2.5" (6 mm x 65 mm) wood
screws (F) as shown using 3/8" (10 mm) socket
wrench.
Skip to step 2.
WOOD
JOIST
WARNING
• Tighten wood screws (F) so that wall plate (G) is firmly
attached, but do not overtighten. Overtightening can
damage the screws, greatly reducing their holding
power.
• Never tighten in excess of 80 in • lb (9 N.M.).
• Make sure that mounting screws are anchored into the
center of the studs. The use of an "edge to edge" stud
finder is highly recommended.
WARNING
• It is the responsibility of the installer to verify that the
supporting surface will safely support the combined
load of all attached hardware and components.
IMPORTANT: Be sure to drill holes into the
joist CENTER!

WARNING
• When installing wall mounts on concrete, verify that you have a minimum of 1 5/8" of actual concrete surface in the 1/
4" diameter hole to be used for the concrete anchors. Do not drill into mortar joints! Concrete must meet ASTM C-90
specifications.
• Concrete must be 2000 psi density minimum. Lighter density concrete may not hold concrete anchor .
• Make sure that the supporting surface will safely support the combined load of the equipment and all attached hardware and components.
• Never exceed the Maximum Load Capacity of 50 lb (22.7 kg).
Installation to Concrete Ceilings
ACC 203 (Alligator® concrete anchors) are recommended.
Drill two 1/4" (6 mm) dia. holes to a minimum depth of
2.5" (64 mm). Attach ceiling plate (G) using two
concrete anchors and #14 x 2.5" wood screws (F) as
shown in Illustration A and 1, 2, and 3 (below).
Tighten all fasteners.
IMPORTANT: It is the responsibility of the installer
to verify that the ceiling will safely support the
combined load of all attached hardware and
components.

Flush Mount Application
Screw ball and socket mount (A) into ceiling plate (G). Align the notch with one of the four holes of the ceiling plate
(G) and secure ball and socket mount (A) with a M5 x 10 mm socket pin screw (C) using security allen wrench (B)
as shown in detail 1.
Note: Slotted set screw (K) is used to jam against the threads of the ball and socket mount to prevent any excess
movement of the ball and socket mount (A). Do not overtighten screw; overtightening screw will damage threads
making it difficult to separate the products.

Note: The projector adapter plate and projector you are installing may differ in appearance from the sample
illustrated below.
Attach projector, with adapter plate already on it, to the
ball and socket mount (A) by inserting the ball and
socket mount (A) into the adapter plate connection and
twisting until the adapter plate will no longer turn
(about 75°). The spring loaded captive screw should
line up with a corresponding hole on the adapter plate
(this should line up automatically when the two are
connected). Push down and tighten the spring loaded
captive screw to secure the adapter plate to the mount.
If not using the optional security feature, fasten thumb
screw (D) in the hole opposite the spring loaded
captive screw.
OPTIONAL: For security, insert serrated washer head
socket pin security screw (E) in the hole opposite the
spring loaded captive screw. Tighten with security
allen wrench (B). This will prevent the projector from
being removed.
Note: Be sure to only use the #10-32 x 3/8" screw (E)
(or the thumb screw (D)) opposite the spring loaded
captive screw.

To adjust roll, pitch, and yaw loosen the set screw
(shown below) using security allen wrench (B) or
standard 4 mm allen wrench. You should be able to
just slightly loosen the screw so that your adjustments
can be set without having to hold the projector. Move
projector to desired position and slowly tighten set
screw.
Note: Be sure not to touch the projector while
tightening the set screw. This may cause the image
to be unaligned when you let go.
