1) Measure distance from center of lens to the top of the mount carriage (C).
2) Add the distance from the ground to the top of the screen (A). Add the projector manufacturers recommended
offset from the projector manual (B). Add the measurement from Step 1 (C), and then add the mounting screw
offset (D) to the total.
(Example: A + B + C + D = ?)
3) Add the measurements to determine the mounting height mark. Place a mark at the top of the total calculated
height measurement starting from the ground up. This height mark will determine your mounting points.
Refer to the projectors User’s Manual to determine the offset of the projector lens to the top of the
screen/whiteboard (B).

Please review the Operator’s Manual that came packaged with your projector before attaching the upper
mounting bracket. The correct throw distance (the distance from the projector to the screen) must be
determined prior to mounting the projector.
1) Refer to the projectors User’s Manual to
determine the distance from the lens to
the front of the screen (X).
2) Measure the distance from the front of
the lens to the center of the projector (Y).
3) Measure the distance from the wall to the
face of the whiteboard/screen (Z).
4) Add all measurements (X + Y + Z) to
determine projector placement on the
arm assembly. This measurement
will determine where the center of the
mount bracket will be located on the
arm assembly. Please make note of this
measurement.

The EST150 can be also used as
a wall-mounted standard projector mount as
well as a short throw projector mount. Align
the projector facing the opposite direction
from the wall plate to project the image
across the room. Please take into account
the projectors throw capabilities prior to
mounting in the projector opposite direction.
Proceed to the “Projector Installation” section.

Locate the mounting points on the bottom of the projector
(see arrows).
Proceed to the “Attaching the Mount Carriage” section.

Selecting the Mounting Hardware
1) Insert a small straw or toothpick into the threaded inserts
found on the bottom or top of the projector.
2) Use a pencil to mark the depth of the threaded insert on the
small straw or toothpick.
3) Mark the straw or toothpick 1/8” above the depth of the
threaded insert, as shown in Figure 1.
4) Insert the small straw or toothpick into the remaining
threaded inserts to compare and verify their depth using the
straw or toothpick’s 1/8” allowance mark.
5) Locate the correct diameter screw for the threaded insert.
If the screw you selected is longer than the 1/8”
allowance mark on the small straw or toothpick, as shown
in Figure 2 and Figure 3, do not use this screw. The
screw length must not bypass the mark.
6) Test each size of the screws provided. The correct screws
should thread easily into the mounting point and not pull out
when tension is applied.
Does your projector have multiple mounting points or a
single mounting point?
If your projector has multiple mounting points,
proceed to the “Multiple Mounting Point
Installation” section.
If your projector has a single mounting point, skip to
the “Single Mounting Point Installation” section
on page 14.

Step 2
1) Attach the mounting legs to the projector using the
corresponding mounting hardware.
Do not tighten the mounting hardware at this time.
Multiple Mounting Point Installation
Step 1
1) Locate the projector’s mounting points.
2) Position the mounting legs on the projector.
The mounting legs are pre-installed. Depending on the
requirements of your projector, you may remove one of
the mounting legs.
The number and placement of mounting
points on projectors varies between projector
manufacturers. Refer to you projector’s technical
specications for the number and location of the
mounting points on your specic projector.
Step 3
1) If the mounting legs need to be leveled, rotate the
leveling barrels to level the mounting bracket.
2) To raise the mounting legs, rotate the leveling barrel
clock-wise. To lower the mounting leg, rotate the
leveling barrel counter clock-wise.
Raise or lower each of the mounting legs, by
rotating the leveling barrels, until all of the mounting
legs are at an equal height.
• Lower the mounting leg by rotating the leveling
barrel counter-clockwise.
• Raise the mounting legs by rotating the leveling
barrel clockwise.
3) When the desired position is achieved, tighten the
mounting screws to the projector and then tighten the
hex head leg screws with the M5 Allen wrench.
Screws shown for illustration
purposes only.

Step 5
1) Position the legs accordingly for best conguration.
You may raise or lower each leg independently by
turning the leveling barrels.
2) Secure the legs to the mount carriage by screwing
M6 x 12mm security screws into the M6 square nut
(do not overtighten) on the mounting legs.
3) Verify the position of the integrated sliding M6 square
nut in the mounting leg relative to a nearby slot on the
mount carriage.
If the M6 square nut is not aligned with any slot, you
can use any thin implement, such as a toothpick, to
nudge it into alignment.

1) Identify the projector’s approximate front-to-back
center of gravity. Place your hands on each side of
the projector and gently lift it an inch from the surface
on which it is resting. Carefully adjust your grip on the
projector until it seems balanced from front-to-back.
Mentally note the apparent center of gravity.
2) Identify the projector’s approximate side-to-side
center of gravity. Place your hands on the front and
back of the projector and gently lift it an inch from the
surface on which it is resting. Carefully adjust your
grip on the projector until it seems balanced from
side-to-side. Mentally note the apparent center of
gravity.
3) Make sure the mount carriage is as close as possible
to the projector’s center of gravity.

Mounting Hardware Too Long?
The depth of some projector mount points may
prevent you from tightening the M2.5 and M3
mounting hardware.
You can reduce the length of the M2.5 and
M3 mounting hardware by stacking up to a
maximum of ve (5) M3 at washers inside the
leveling barrel.
Avoid stacking too many M3 washers; the
mounting hardware must thread into the
projector mount point at least four (4) complete
turns.

Step 7
1) Insert one (1) Barrel Cap (except for the security
barrel) into the end of each leveling barrel.
Go to the “Attaching the Mount Carriage to the
Projector Arm” section on page 15.
Step 6
1) Tighten the mounting screws which secures the
mounting legs to the projector.
Do not overtighten the mounting screws.
Single Mounting Point Installation
A single ¼-20 x 5/16″screw must be used to attach the
mount carriage to the projector if your projector has only
one mounting point.
Do not overtighten the ¼-20 x 5/16″screw.
Proceed to the “Attaching the Mount Carriage to the
Projector Arm” section on page 15.

instructions below to install and secure the security barrel.
1) Determine which leveling barrel will be removed.
2) Remove the mounting screw.
3) Remove the leveling barrel by turning the leveling barrel counter-clockwise.
4) Thread in the security barrel clockwise.
5) Insert and tighten the mounting screw.
6) Attach theft deterrent device (PCB-CSL1 or padlock) through the hole that is on the security barrel.
Proceed to the “Mount Adjustment” section on page 17.
Cable Routing (Optional)
1) Remove the plastic cover(s) from the cable routing
openings.
2) Route cables and wiring through the openings then out
the back or bottom near the wall.
Proceed to the “Securing the Projector (Optional)”
section.
