building/construction codes. The total weight of
the Marantz VP-11, LN7101F Anamorphic Lens
System and MT20/EXT10 Mounting Brackets is
80 lbs (36.29 kg). Make sure the ceiling structural
members can support five times the total weight,

Proper installation procedure by qualified
personnel as outlined in this installation guide is
required. It is recommended that the Profession-
als at your Marantz Dealer, who are skilled in all
aspects of installation and operation, install the
Marantz Video System and any associated audio
equipment.
It is important to read this LN7101F Installation
Guide and the VP-11 User Guide before starting
the installation process. The instructions in this
Installation Guide must be adhered to as failure
to do so could result in serious injury.

driver, adjustable wrench, 5/32 and 3/16 allen
tools.
7. When the symbol illustrated here

your responsibility to dispose of your
waste equipment by handing it over to a desig-
nated collection point for the recycling of waste
electrical and electronic equipment. The separate
collection and recycling of your waste equipment
at the time of disposal will help to conserve natural
resources and ensure that it is recycled in a man-

CAUTION: The lenses contained in this product
are extremely delicate precision op-
tics, and may be scratched or other-
wise damaged by physical contact
with external objects of any kind. It is
therefore essential to avoid any such
contact, or any other mistreatment of
the lenses. Scratches or other exter-
nally caused damage to lenses that
are deemed to have arisen through
neglect or misuse, are excluded from
protection under the Marantz Limited
Warranty.
1. For additional connection information, refer to the
owner’s manual(s) for any component(s)) connect-
ed to the LN7101F Anamorphic Lens System.
2. The LN7101F Anamorphic Lens System (Fixed
Position) together with the Marantz VP-11 Projec-
tor will produce a full screen image when viewing
Anamorphic Source Material. It is not intended
to produce a full screen image when viewing
non Anamorphic Source Material. The Marantz
LN9101M Anamorphic Lens System (Two Position)
will produce a full screen image with either source
material. For additional information contact your
Marantz Dealer or Marantz.
3. The LN7101F Anamorphic Lens is designed to
produce the best possible images when a curved
Anamorphic Projection Screen is used, contact
your Marantz Dealer for additional information.
4. The Anamorphic Lens is a precision optical device
with special coatings just like you would find on
Professional Cameras. In the event the Lens re-
quires cleaning to remove airborne particles such
as dust and dirt from the Lens, use a safe cleaning
product such as a clean and dry 3MTM Scotch-
Brite® Microfiber Lens Cleaning Cloth. At no time
should ordinary household cleaning products be
used to clean the Lens, as damage will occur.

The LN7101F Anamorphic Lens System is designed
to mount together with the Marantz VP-11 onto the
ceiling of a typical room. Before choosing the location
on the ceiling, it is important to first read the “Installa-
tion” section of the VP-11 User Guide.
Some of the brackets from the Marantz MT20 (op-
tional ceiling mounting bracket) will be used to mount
the combination of the projector and LN7101F to the
ceiling. In some installations the EXT10 bracket will
also be used (optional extension pole kit).
This installation guide includes the assembly
instuctions from the MT20 and EXT10 Installation
Guides for easier installation. The LN7101F/MT20/
EXT10 were designed and manufactured to meet
strict quality and safety standards. There are however,
some installation and operation precautions which
you should be particularly aware of:
1. Read instructions - All the safety and operating
instructions should be read before the products are
used.
2. Retain instructions - The safety and operating in-
structions should be retained for future reference.
3. Heed warnings - All warnings on the products and
in the instructions should be adhered to.
4. Follow instructions - All installation instructions
should be followed.
5. Use only the parts provided with the mount, along
with any parts (commercially available) that are
specified in these instructions.
6. Do not modify the mount or the parts provided with
the MT20/EXT10/LN7101F.
7. Do not use damaged parts. If any parts become
damaged, contact your Marantz Dealer or Marantz.
8. All bolts and screws must be tightened securely
when instructed to do so.
9. After the projector mounting plate is attached to
the projector make sure not to block any additional
ventilation openings.

Installation Overview
10. Special techniques and experience are required
when installing the projector with the MT20/
EXT10/LN7101F. Contact your Marantz Dealer to
install the projector for you.
11. Once the projector is installed, periodic safety
checks of the rigidity of the MT20 Mounting Brack-
ets, EXT10 Extension Pole, LN7101F Anamorphic
Lens System and the VP-11 to the ceiling along
with secure fastening of all hardware should be
conducted on a regular basis.
EXT10 Assembly
After reading the “Installation” Section of the VP-11
User Guide and it has been determined the EXT10
Extension Pole will be needed to meet the require-
ments of location and ventilation for the Projector,
assemble the EXT10 by performing the steps below.
If the EXT10 will not be needed, proceed to the MT20
Assembly on page 7.
Note: The EXT10 hardware, fasteners and parts list
are located in a separate shipping carton from the
projector.
1. The EXT10 is adjustable from 43-3/4 inches to 24
inches as supplied. If the default range is accept-
able proceed to Step 3. The adjustable range may
be changed to 24 inches to 14-5/8 inches by cut-
ting both poles. When the installation requires the
24 inches to 14-5/8 inches range proceed to Step
2.
2. Cut the Outside
Pole to 13-3/8
inches from the
end the mount-
ing plate will be
attached. Cut
the Inside Pole
to 13-3/4 inches
from the end the
mounting plate
will be attached.
Refer to figure 1.
3. Attach the Bottom Mount-
ing Plate (the flange with
the wider space) to the
Outside Pole with two
Round Head Philips 1/4-20
x 3/8 Screws. In a similar
manner, attach the remain-
ing Plate to the Inside Pole. Refer to figure 2.
4. Assemble the Pole Pieces together making sure
to orient them as illustrated in figure 3 on the next
page.
