Important Safety Instructions
Pre-Installation
When using your video equipment, basic safety precautions
should always be followed, including the following:
1. Read and understand all instructions before using.
2. Position the cord so that it will not be tripped over, pulled, or
contact hot surfaces.
3. If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with a current rating at
least equal to that of the appliance should be used. Cords rated
for less amperage than the appliance may overheat.
4. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble this
appliance. Contact an authorized service dealer when repair
work is required. Incorrect reassembly can cause electric shock
when the appliance is used subsequently.
5. The use of an accessory attachment not recommended
by the manufacturer may cause a risk of ire, electric shock,
or injury to persons.
Save These Instructions

of the Local Building Codes, the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC),

Suggested Methods Of Installation
1. Mounting Da-Lift Projector Lift between joists.
Install the joists at the proper height and width to it the Da-Lift
you are installing. See Figure 1.
NOTE: The Da-Lift must be installed on top of the joists.
Be sure to leave access from above for installation.
When the joists are properly installed, and secured in place, slide
the Da-Lift in position. Bolt the two brackets (11/2” x 19”) to the
frame. Lower the unit onto the joists and secure in place.
Additional bracing may be required, based on construction.
NOTE: Da-Lift projector lift must be installed level!
2. Mounting Da-Lift Projector Lift using 1/2” diameter threaded rods.
Secure four 1/2” diameter threaded rods to the ceiling at the
dimensions shown. See Figure 2, “E” and “F”. Install the mounting
bracket (11/2” x 19”) to each side of Da-Lift with 1/2” diameter bolts,
lat washers and nuts. Attach one nut on each rod and run the
nut up to the desired height.
Slide Da-Lift projector lift up with all (4) four threaded rods into
the mounting brackets. Install 1/2” nuts under the mounting
brackets. Adjust the frame to the proper height and level with
bottom nuts on the rod. Lock the mounting brackets in place
with the nuts on the top of each rod. Frame must be level and
solid. Additional bracing may be required, based on construction.

Da-Lift Projector Lift Adjustment
Models 15, 19, 19L
Da-Lift projector lift travel is stopped automatically in the full up
and full down positions by limit switches, which have been
properly adjusted at the factory. The up limit switch should not

switch, proceed in the following manner. See Figure 4. Raise
projector lift before adjustment for less drop. Take a small
screwdriver or 5/32” hex wrench and insert in yellow switch and
turn towards the (-) or clockwise direction. Raise and then lower
the Da-Lift and check for proper stopping height. If additional
change is necessary, repeat steps until the proper height is set.
Check for satisfactory condition by operating unit a few times.
The bottom frame of the Da-Lift is removable and adjustable to
ceiling level. Finish the bottom frame to match the ceiling.
Models 10M, 15M
Use a small screwdriver or 5/32” hex wrench and insert in
number 2 switch. Turn counter clockwise for less drop. Check for
proper stopping height. Repeat steps until the proper height is
