Section 1 - Hanging Screen
Section 1.1 - General:
1. Wall Mounting Brackets (minimum of 2) must be attached to the case regardless of mounting method.
2. Screen should be lifted into position only by case end caps. Keep case level by lifting case end caps
simultaneously to prevent surface damage. Never attempt to lift screen along its length.
3. When locating viewing surface and checking clearance for screen’s operation, remember surface is
centered in case. Handle case carefully to protect its finish.
4. Regardless of mounting method, screen should be positively and securely supported so that vibration
or even abusive pulling on viewing surface will not cause case to loosen or fall. Installer must ensure that
fasteners used are of adequate strength and suitable for mounting surface chosen.
