Operating Instructions for
MODEL C

WALL MOUNTING
1
TO OPEN SCREEN
Pull down on pull bail until desired picture area is obtained. Lock into position as on a window shade. Be sure surface is
locked before releasing.
1. Select fasteners of proper type for wall or ceiling involved.
2. Insert fasteners through proper openings provided in back side of end caps.
3. Attach screen securely to studding or other solid surface - never to plaster only.
4. MAKE SURE SCREEN IS MOUNTED LEVEL.
YOU HAVE MADE A WISE SELECTION…
in choosing a Da-Lite projection screen, designed and engineered to produce the sharpest,
most pleasing pictures with maximum convenience.
CEILING MOUNTING
1. Heavy screw hooks may be installed into wood joists. Other types of hooks or chain may be used for other ceilings or
for stage installations.
2. Insert hooks or chain through proper openings provided in sides of end caps. Screen must hang so that flat back of
case is perpendicular to floor.
3. MAKE SURE SCREEN IS MOUNTED LEVEL.
TO RE-ROLL YOUR PICTURE SURFACE
The Model C operates on the same principle as a window shade. Pull down about 4 inches to disengage the locking dog
and start the fabric up firmly and quickly.
Large picture surfaces are heavy and will start up too slowly to prevent the locking dog from catching unless help is
provided, so keep picture surface moving briskly.
Should the locking dog catch, pull the picture surface down about 4 inches and start the surface up rapidly.
However, do not permit the picture surface to roll up uncontrolled, particularly the last few feet. Allowing the bottom slat
to strike the case uncontrolled may result in severe damage to your screen. Use the cord provided for control.
PROTECT YOUR SCREEN
Before re-rolling surface into case, examine both front and back of surface to be sure they are free of foreign matter.
