zFollow the instructions specied in “Installation” of this manual, and perform secure installation.
Do not install in a place which is not strong enough.
zIf the installation location is not strong enough, the ceiling bracket may fall down and an injury may result.
Make sure that your footing is safe and secure during installation.
zIf your footing is not secure, you may fall down or drop the bracket, and an injury may result.
Make sure that the ceiling bracket is installed correctly in accordance with the structure and materials
used at the installation location.
zIf a mistake is made in the installation procedure, the ceiling bracket may fall down and an injury may result.
Do not loosen or remove the ceiling mount bracket screws or bolts unnecessarily.
zThe projector may fall down and injury may result.
Do not set up the projector in humid or dusty places or in places where the projector may come into
contact with oily smoke or steam.
zUsing the projector under such conditions may result in re, electric shocks or plastic deterioration. The
plastic deterioration may cause the falling down of the projector which is mounted in the ceiling.
Do not allow children to reach the attached metal ttings and screws.
zThe attached metal ttings and screws can cause personal injury if swallowed.
zIf swallowed, seek medical advice immediately.
Mounting and installation must be carried out by two or more persons.
zIncluding the projector, this xture weighs approximately 25 kg (55.1 lbs.). Be sure that mounting and
installation are carried out by two or more persons.
Do not disassemble or modify the ceiling mount bracket.
zThe projector may be damaged or fall, causing injury.
CAUTION:
Install only the designated projector.
Install only using the designated method.
zOtherwise, the projector may fall and become damaged, and cause injury.
Do not install the ceiling bracket in a place which may impede projector ventilation.
zIf this is not observed, re may result.
Do not hang from or hang objects on the projector or ceiling mount bracket.
zThe projector may fall and cause injury.
When installing, always use the supplied components.
zOtherwise, this may cause damaged projector to fall and cause injury.
Install the mounting screws and power cable in such a way that they will not make contact with the
inside parts of the ceiling.
zElectric shocks may result from contact with any metal objects inside the ceiling.
■Panasonic disclaims all liability for any accidents or any damage caused by the installation of the
ceiling mount bracket using methods that are not described in these Installation Instructions or
methods that do not use the parts specied in these Instructions.

Setting-up dimensions which are not given in the above table can be calculated using the formulas below.
■Formula for projection distance
Dimensions such as projection distances can be calculated from the diagonal length of the projected image
SD (m). Units for calculations: m
Values obtained with the formulas below contain a slight error.

After checking the height, width, and structure of the installation location while referring to “Standard installation
dimensions” on pages 6 to 8, determine the appropriate positions for setting up the screen and installing
the projector.
Setting up the screen
Set up the screen according to the specied method in a position which takes into account the projection distance
and angle and the type of screen being used.
Screws tightening torques
M4 ......... 1.25±0.2 N•m
M6 ......... 4±0.5 N•m
M8 ......... 10±1 N•m
M10 ....... 20±1 N•m
zUse a torque screwdriver or torque wrench to tighten screws and bolts to their specied tightening torques. Do
not use electric screwdrivers or impact screwdrivers.
Preparing the attachment plate
Before installing the attachment plate on the ceiling, attach the pole brace, adjustment poles, and the pole base
to the attachment plate with the following procedures.
■Attaching the pole brace and the adjustment pole 1 to the attachment plate
Circular hole
Pole brace
(M6 × 80)(M6 × 16)

Adjustment pole 1
To the screen
(Front)
1) Insert the pole brace into the center of the attachment
plate, and secure the pole brace with the supplied
six captive washer hex head bolts (M6 × 16). (Refer
to the gure on the left for the directions of the
attachment plate and the pole brace.)
2) Insert the adjustment pole 1 into the pole brace,
aligning them so that the “FRONT” inscription faces
the front.
3) Insert the supplied two captive washer hex head
bolts (M6×80) through the side of the pole brace, and
secure them with M6 at washers and M6 hex head
nuts. Attach the supplied two captive washer hex
head bolts (M6 × 16) from the screen side of the pole
brace, and secure the pole brace and the adjustment
pole 1.
Attention
zBe sure to tighten the screws to a value within their
specied torque range. If the screws are tightened
with insufcient torque the projected image may tilt.

■Installing the attachment plate
Depending on whether it is installed on a concrete or wooden ceiling structure, there are two different
installation methods. Carry out by the appropriate installation method which is suited to each ceiling.
Attention
zMake sure to use the ceiling mount bolts, hex nuts, at washers, spring
washers, anchoring nuts or curled plugs for M10.
zAll bolts and nuts should be securely tightened, and sufcient measures such
as using two nuts or a nut lock should be employed as necessary to prevent
loosening.

the ceiling mount bolt mounting holes. (Refer to
page 11 for hole locations and dimensions.)
2) Securely x the four ceiling mount bolts to the
ceiling beam.
zConrm that the location to retain the ceiling
mount bolts has enough strength to retain the
weight of the projector and the ceiling mount
bracket. If there is not enough strength, perform
sufcient reinforcement considering the safety
factor.
3) Temporarily secure the attachment plate to the
ceiling mount bolts
(It will be permanently secured after adjusting the
installation angle in horizontal directions on page
18.)
zThe threaded end of ceiling mount bolt at
the attachment plate side should protrude by
approx. 5 mm (3/16") from the hex nut. Be sure
to use commercially available at and spring
washers to install the attachment plate.
Note
zThe signal cable of the projector can also be run
inside the adjustment poles. In such a case, be
sure not to damage the cord or the cable. (The
inside diameter of the adjustment pole is 47 mm
(1-27/32").)

zWhen installing anchoring nuts or curled plugs,
strictly adhere to the installation instructions
supplied by the manufacturer of the nuts so that
they will not loosen in the concrete structure or
be dislodged from the intended positions.
zCheck to make sure that the concrete ceiling
structure can easily bear the weight of the
projector and the ceiling mount bracket. If it is
found to be fragile or degraded, use steel or
wooden reinforcements.

1) Mount the anchoring nut or curled plug (M8) in the
concrete ceiling (at a single point within the area
shown in the diagram on the left).
zIf it is to be attached to a wooden surface, make
holes in the ceiling beam and use commercially
available ceiling mount bolts as described in the
procedure for attaching the attachment plate on
page 12.
Attention
zWhen mounting the anchoring nut or curled plug
(M8) to the ceiling, be careful that there is no
slack of the wire rope for the ceiling mount bracket
between the projector and the ceiling.
zIf the wire rope for the ceiling mount bracket is
too long, increase the number of times it is wound
around the adjustment pole to adjust the length.

of the wire rope for the ceiling mount bracket.
zIf it is to be attached to a wooden surface, pass
the loop at the end of the wire rope for the ceiling
mount bracket, a supplied at washer (M8), and
a commercially available spring washer (M8)
through the attached ceiling bolt and x with a
commercially available hex nut (M8).

The ceiling mount bracket has functions to adjust the horizontal swing and the horizontal and vertical tilt.
zAfter conrming that the projector lens is on the standard position*1, adjustments should be carried out in order
to make the center of the projector lens perpendicularly to the surface of the projection screen.
zWithout performing keystone correction from the [POSITION] menu of the projector, make adjustments to
ensure that the lens center is perpendicular to the screen surface. If it is not installed perpendicularly, keystone
distortions will occur. While making sure that the screen and projector are aligned opposite each other, adjust
the installation angle. If your projector has a lens shift function, make sure the lens is in standard position*1
before starting to make adjustments.
*1 The standard position is the state where shift lever of the projector lens is set to the center of the lens.
