Flush against wall; Suspended from ceiling (use extension brackets); and Recessed above ceiling.

CAUTION! Do not cut wrapping paper or tape with knife or any sharp tool. Remove by hand.
2. Remove tape from slat pocket.
3. Install electrical hook up that applies to your unit. Make sure to review your Electrical Installation Checklists and

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
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
fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Surface travel is stopped automatically in the fully opened and closed positions by limit switches that are properly
adjusted at DA-LITE. Should it be necessary to adjust for more or less picture drop (viewing area), proceed in the
following manner:
NOTE: Use a screwdriver or allen wrench to make adjustments.
MORE SCREEN DROP
1. Place operating switch in “down” position.
2. When the screen stops, turn the white “down” limit knob (Fig. 3) one-quarter turn counter-clockwise. Test by raising
picture surface approximately two feet, then lower again. Repeat until desired picture surface position is attained.
LESS SCREEN DROP
1. Raise picture surface approximately two feet above desired level.
2. Place operating switch in “off” position.
3. Turn the white “down” limit knob one-quarter turn clockwise. Test by raising picture surface approximately two feet,
then lower again. Repeat until desired picture surface is attained.
NOTE: The yellow UP adjusting knob is located at motor end and is accessible through the fabric opening. The white DOWN
adjusting knob is located at motor end and is accessible through the fabric opening.
CAUTION! When adjusting and testing, be prepared to stop screen quickly as serious damage may occur.
