Note: Projectors will require different size screws for mounting. Use a combination of screws (M, N, O, or P) and
foot adjustment that will result in channels of adapter plate (L) fitting tightly against projector. Important: In order
to properly engage the threads in the mounting holes, the screw must be turned at least 3 full turns.

To adjust roll, pitch, and yaw loosen the set screw
(shown below) using security allen wrench (B) or
standard 4 mm allen wrench. You should be able to
just slightly loosen the screw so that your adjustments
can be set without having to hold the projector. Move
projector to desired position and slowly tighten set
screw.
Note: Be sure not to touch the projector while
tightening the set screw. This may cause the image
to be unaligned when you let go.
IMPORTANT:Allen wrench is your key for projector
removal. Store it in a safe place.
Note: The projector adapter plate and projector you are installing may differ in appearance from the sample
illustrated below.
Attach projector, with adapter plate already on it, to the
ball and socket mount (A) by inserting the ball and
socket mount (A) into the adapter plate connection and
twisting until the adapter plate will no longer turn
(about 75°). The spring loaded captive screw should
line up with a corresponding hole on the adapter plate
(this should line up automatically when the two are
connected). Push down and tighten the spring loaded
captive screw to secure the adapter plate to the mount.
If not using the optional security feature, fasten thumb
screw (D) in the hole opposite the spring loaded
captive screw.
OPTIONAL: For security, insert serrated washer head
socket pin security screw (E) in the hole opposite the
spring loaded captive screw. Tighten with security
allen wrench (B). This will prevent the projector from
being removed.
Note: Be sure to only use the #10-32 x 3/8" screw (E)
(or the thumb screw (D)) opposite the spring loaded
captive screw.
