INVERT THE PROJECTOR IMAGE

Please refer to the owners manual for your LCD Projector for detailed instructions of how to electrically invert the projected image to accommodate its use in the ceiling mounted mode.

LOCATION OF THE CEILING BRACKET

Please refer to the owner’s manual for your SHARP LCD PROJECTOR for information which will help you to determine the best location for the placement of the ceiling mounting bracket assembly.

INSTALLATION OF THE CEILING BRACKET

After you have determined the appropriate location for the ceiling bracket, you must locate the exact location of the ceiling beams. Most standard residential construction uses 16 inches between centers for overhead beams. You can mount the ceiling bracket by straddling two beams, or you can install the bracket in line with a single beam.

CAUTION: THE BRACKET MOUNTING SCREWS MUST GO DIRECTLY INTO THE BEAMS. SHEETROCK, LATH AND PLASTER, WILL NOT PROVIDE A SUFFICIENTLY SECURE SUPPORT.

STEP 1. INSTALLATION OF THE METAL CEILING BRACKET

After the location for the ceiling bracket has been determined, (see LCD PROJECTOR Owner’s Manual), make sure to locate beams in the ceiling.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS CEILING BRACKET AN-PHCM20

1.1 a. Select straddle beam or single beam installation. b. Use the ceiling bracket as a template to mark the location where the pilot holes should be drilled. c. Drill the pilot holes for the support screws using a 1/8” drill bit into the center of the beam. (See Figs. 2 and 3).

1.2 Screw the ceiling plate to the beams. Use at least 6 screws and metal washers supplied with the unit. These screws should be tightened firmly to insure a vibration-free support. (See Figs. 2 and 3).

Two sizes of hex head lag bolts are provided. Use shorter screws for sheet rock surfaces and use the longer screws if the ceiling surface is constructed of a wood lath and plaster.

CAUTION: THE BRACKET MOUNTING SCREWS MUST GO DIRECTLY INTO THE BEAMS. SHEETROCK OR LATH AND PLASTER WILL NOT PROVIDE A SUFFICIENTLY SECURE SUPPORT.
