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.
1. Carefully unpack Da-Lift projector lift.
2. Make sure to recheck measurements of projector lift location
before installation.

Da-Lift projector lift travel is stopped automatically in the full up

properly adjusted at the factory. The up limit switch should not
be ield adjusted. If it is necessary to readjust the down limit
switch, proceed in the following manner. See Figure 3. 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.
