Electrical connections
Unit operates on 220v AC, 50 Hz. current.
The Resi-Lift is shipped closed, with a temporary eld connection provided in
the form of a pigtail temporarily wired to the unit. After hanging the unit, make
sure power is off and use this pigtail to temporarily connect the unit to power
and to a switch, so the unit can be lowered to allow access inside.
Please note: Make sure electrical supply has been disconnected before
attempting to connect Resi-Lift to power.
Terminal strip for eld connections is located inside the unit on the left (as seen
from front, or non-scissored end). Unit is shipped with internal wiring complete
to the terminal strip. Once the unit has been lowered, turn off power, disconnect
temporary pigtail from unit, then complete permanent wiring to electricity and
to switches. Wire to connect unit to power supply and to switches should be
furnished by installer. Connections should be made in accordance with wiring
diagram, and wiring should comply with national and local electrical codes. All
operating switches should be “off” before power is connected.
Resi-Lift should be operated and checked prior to installing projector and/
or optional ceiling closure.
NOTE:
Resi-Lift is USA made and therefore has imperial dimensions.

When unit is rst operated, be cautious! If unit fails to operate when the
switch is ipped “down”, return switch to “off” and recheck electrical
connections before proceeding. Cycle unit down and up several times to
conrm satisfactory operation.
220V Single Station Control (CE Approved) - 3-position UP - OFF - DOWN
switch permits operation to be stopped at any point. Factory set limit switches
automatically stop lift when fully down or fully up.

Generally, the video projector should be suspended from the bottom pan
according to LP Morgan Skyhook instructions (Included in the package).
If for any reason the hole placement must be changed, completely lower
Resi-Lift before attempting to drill new holes.
Control cables (maximum of four) should be laced through our Cable
Management System (back scissor only). This will ensure that cords do not
become tangled and damaged during Micro Projector Lift operation.
Unit and projection system should be operated, checked and adjusted as
necessary at this time (see below for limit adjustment procedures).

WARNING:
Keep ngers & other objects away from ceiling closure & scissor
mechanisms when unit is operating. Serious injury or damage can result.

Adjustments
CAUTION:
Be sure all switches are in “off” position before adjusting limit
switches. Always be prepared to shut lift off manually when new
adjustment is being tested.
CAUTION:
It is not uncommon to overheat the motor during initial installation
when setting limits. The motor is thermally protected and will stop
working until it has cooled to a safe temperature before it will start
operating again.
Please refer to diagram below for these instructions.
Limit switches for the Resi-Lift are preset at the factory. The “Up” (closed) limit
switch is set for fully closed. The “down” limit switch is set for 607mm. Once
unit is in place, the “down” limit switch may need to be changed to stop the
Resi-Lift closer to the ceiling (that is, raise the “down” position) or further from
the ceiling (that is, lower the “down” position). Limit switches are located on
the left end of roller (as seen from the front, or non-scissored end, of the unit)
and are accessible to a screwdriver/Allen wrench (5/32”).

Adjusting down position
Adjusting up (closed) position
“Down” position may be adjusted by turning limit switch adjustment socket
number 1. Turning the socket clockwise will stop the Micro Projector Lift
closer to the ceiling. Turning it counter-clockwise will cause the lift to stop at a
lower point.
Because the “up” (closed) position is preset at the factory, LP Morgan does
not recommend changing this position using the limit switch. The “up”
position of the closure may be changed by changing the length of threaded
rod (see instructions for closure installation). If necessary, however, “up”
position may be adjusted by turning limit switch adjustment socket number
2. Turning the socket counterclockwise creates a higher, or more fully closed
position. Turning it clockwise creates a lower ‘UP” (closed) position.
CAUTION:
Do not set limit switch so that the Resi-Lift motor is still running after
the lift is closed. This could result in damage to the motor

Installing ceiling closure
CAUTION:
• Make sure the nuts are completely tightened.
• DO NOT hang from, “ride” or pull down on the unit. This could
create a failure and cause damage and/or injury.
Check the faceplate/ceiling tile is ush with the surrounding ceiling panel and
adjust as necessary by threading the hanging rods up or down as required.
If your Resi-Lift is equipped with a ceiling plate system, it can be used as is,
or in conjunction with a square of existing ceiling tile. Please refer to diagram
below for these instructions.
Manual Installation Notes
When the Resi-Lift is in the closed position, determine the spacing from
the plate to the faceplate to allow for tting of the projector/bracket and
ceiling tile tting.
• Cut the all thread hanging rod to suit the spacing distance plus an additional
50mm. Screw 50mm of hanging thread up inside the baseplate
• The hanging rods should be at the shortest length possible to ensure the
ceiling faceplate assembly does not shake or interfere with the cut-out or trim,
as it returns to its closed position.
Screw the 4 rods into the base plate threaded holes (475mm centres).
Position the faceplate onto the hanging rods securing with washers and nuts
both sides of the faceplate/ceiling tile brackets.

Cable attachment instructions
Allow for 15mm
between cable and
end of scissor when
lift is fully down. Use
a 15mm diameter
object, such as a
pin, to measure.
See Note 8.
See Note 11.

CAUTION:
Improper installation can cause damage to the Resi-Lift during raising
and lowering of the unit.
LP Morgan Installation Instructions | 13
LP Morgan Resi-Lift Manual
1. Operate the Resi-Lift into the fully lowered position.
2. Disconnect power to the Resi-Lift.
3. Attach cables to the rear scissor mechanism only.
4. Use flexible cables. Plenum rated cables are typically too stiff and should
not be used.
5. Determine the total required length of cables. 3.05m of cable is required to
reach from the opening of the lower pan to the opening of the top pan. In
addition, remember to add (A) enough cable to reach from the opening of
the lower pan to the projector, and (B) to connect the Resi-Lift to incoming
cable at the top of the unit.
A + 3.05m + B = Total Cable Length
6. Use cable ties to attach the cables to the pre-drilled rear scissor links.
7. Begin wrapping the cable from the projector up with the cables connected
to the projector to ensure sufcient cable length coming from the opening of
the lower pan.
8. Due to the variation in physical size and number of cables required for any
given application, LP Morgan recommends a limit of four cables (in addition
to the pre-wired power cord [220V lifts do not come with with pre-wired
power cord]).
PLEASE NOTE: The cable installer is responsible for ensuring the cables
do not interfere with the scissor mechanism as the unit raises and lowers.
9. Be sure to allow 15mm clearance between the end of the links and the cable
loops where shown. This will allow the cable room to ex as the unit is raised
and lowered.
10. After all cables are attached, clip extended ends of wire ties and adjust
cables so they do not interfere with the rear scissor mechanism.
11. Cables that run to the top right of the rear scissor mechanism should be run
through the 20mm cable clamp (provided).
CAUTION: Tie up cables so they are kept out of the scissor mechanism as
it is raised and lowered.
12. Note that cables attached to links that slide will move back and forth, and
should have the necessary degree of freedom to move with the link.
13. Cable clamps have been provided at the opening of the lower pan and at
the top of the upper pan for securing cables.
14. Make sure cables exit through oval hole in side of top pan so that cables
are not pinched by upper and lower pan.
