
ThankyouforpurchasingaScreenTechnicsAVLifter
andpleaseensuretoreadtheinstructionfullybefore
proceedingtoinstalltheunit.


GeneralAdvice

TheInterfitAVLifterisafullyintegratedunitthatisdesignedtobeinstalledabovetheceilinglineoftheroomandutilises
bottomceilingedgetrimpiecestocreateaneatfinishagainsttheceilingmaterialcut‐out.
Noplasterorpainttradesarerequiredforthisstandardinstallation.
Allelectricalandcontrolequipmentiscontainedintheceilingspace.Astandard3pinGPOforpowersupplyisrequired.
Reviewthecut‐outdimensionfactsheetattachedtothetoplidoftheunit,asmodelsizesvarythroughouttherange.
Beforeproceedingensurethatyouhaveenoughin‐ceilingheighttofittheunit.Andthatyourmodellifterwill
accommodatetheprojectorthatisspecifiedfortheproject.
MakesureyouhavereviewedtheLensThrowDistanceChartprovidedwiththeprojectorsothattheLifterwillbethe
correctdistancefromtheprojectionscreenandtoallowforanysidewayslensoff‐settoachieveaperfectresult.


InstallationAdvice

HavingdecidedonthepositionoftheLifteryoumustnowcuttheceilingmaterialtothestatedcut‐outdimension.Werecommend
thatyoudividethecut‐outintwoandremoveonehalfatatimetopreventtornedges.



Everyaboveceilingenvironmentisuniqueandthereforethereisnosingularapproachtosecuringtheunit
withintheceilingspace.Followingaresomeacceptedinstallpractices:

PleaseNote:Iftheceilingenvironmentisgoingtobesealedwithoutman‐holeaccessupintotheroof,thenfor
laterserviceremoval,itisimportanttousetheelongatedverticalslotsonthelowerhalfoftheframeuprights
tosecurethesuppliedanglebrackets.Thiswillallow(withsomedifficulty)removalofthedevicefrombelowif
mechanicalfailureoccurs.


ChainandTurnbuckle
Securethechaintoasuitablestructure,suchasoverheadtimberbeams,ordyna‐boltedtoan
overheadconcreteslab.
Aminimumof4pointstosecurethechainisrequiredanditistheinstallersresponsibilityto
ensurethechainturnbucklesystemchosenisstrongenoughforthesafeinstallationofthe
unit.
Nowraisetheunitintotheceiling,holdinpositionfrombelowwhileasecondperson
securestheotherendofthechaintothelifterusingthesuppliedanglebracketsandtighten
theturnbucklestilltheunitsceilingedgetrimsarefirmlypressingagainsttheundersideof
theceilingmaterial.
Lockofftheturnbuckles.




All‐threadBrookerRod
Secure4xbrookerrodstoasuitableoverheadstructurewithaproprietaryloxinsystem
designedtoacceptthreadedrod.
Spacearoundtheoutsidecornerdimensionsoftheunit.
Windasetofnutsuptherodsabovetheinstallationheightandtheninserttherodsthrough
thesuppliedanglebrackets,nowattachedtothelifterunit.
Nowwindonasetofnutsunderthebrackettilltheceilingedgetrimsarefirmlypressing
againsttheundersideoftheceilingmaterial,thenwindtheuppernutsdownontotheangle
bracketstolockoffunit.




Installationsarebestachievedbyhaveaccessintotheroofspacebutthisisnotalwayspossible,andintheseinstancesweadvise
thefollowingpractices:

InstallingfromBeneaththeCeilingLine

Connectpowerinasafemannertotheunitandsupporttheliftersoyoucanmotortheprojectorcagelowerthanthe
ceilingedgetrimsandyouwillsee6Allenkeyboltsholdingthecageassemblytotheunit.Removetheseandsetaside
thecageunit.
Removetheprojectormountingplatebyremovingthe2Allenkeyboltsatthefrontundersideofplateandpullthe
forwardtoremovefromthelifterassembly.
Motortheremainingassemblytothefullupposition(watchoutforyourfingers…)andyounowhaveroomtoaccess
theinterioroftheunit.
Inspectthe8installationslotsrunningupthecornerframeuprights.Theseareusedtosecurethedevicetosome
suitablestructurefrombelowtheceilingline.
Eitheraddsometimberintheceilingalongtwosidestocoachboltintoplaceorsuspendfromthreadedrodorsome
suitableanglebrackets.
Raisetheunitintotheceiling,fitthescrewsorbolts(asappropriatetoselectedmethod)andapplyupwardpressureto
theunitsotheceilingedgetrimsarepressedfirmlyagainsttheundersideoftheceilingmaterialandtightenoffthe
screwsorbolts.
Motordownthemechanismandrefittheprojectorplateandcageassembly.


PleaseNote:Whenutilisingtheabovemethodofinstallationfrombeneaththeceiling,itisbesttouseamethodoffixingtoany
structurethatwillallowyouatalatterdatetoremovethelifterforanyfutureservicingissues,withouttheneedtobreakintothe
ceiling–pleaseconsiderthisissuebeforedecidingonthebestinstallationmethod.


ProjectorInstallation

Thisunitcomeswithablankprojectormountingplatethatrequiresyoutomarkoutthe
mountingholesanddrillwhereappropriate.
Removaloftheplatefordrillingandfittingisachievedbyundoingthe2offAllenkeybolts
alongthefrontundersideedgeofthemountingplate,andpullingtheplateforward.
These2offAllenkeyboltswilllaterbetheadjustmentmethodusedforyaworsideto
sidealignmentoftheprojector,withthethreadedadjustmentwinderusedforpitchorup
anddownadjustmentofprojector.
Foreaseofadjustmentandcablefittingtheceilingplatecanberemovedfromthe
projectorshroudassemblybyundoingthe6xAllenkeyboltsthatsurroundtheceiling
platefromtheoutsideperimeteroftheshroud,asbelow.

CableManagementforUnitswith200mmto600mmTravel

Therearoftheprojectormountingplatehasacablemanagementaccessholethatallows
youtoruncablesthroughandintothecablemanagementchannel.
Layouttherequiredcablesandlockthemintopositionutilisingcabletiesinthesmall
regularholesrunningupthechannel.
Besuretoallowenoughslackinthecablesateveryhingedelbowpointsothecablesdon’t
interferewiththetravelofthelifter.
Exitcablesthroughthesuppliedopeningontopoftheunit.


CableManagementforUnitsover600mmTravel

Onunitswithlongertravelasecondtypeofcablemanagementisrequired.
Abovetheprojectormountingpositionisanaccessholeforthecablesandvariouscabletie
mountingholes,pleaseseethepicturebelowthistext.
Thisallowsthecablestorunupthecentrallymountedcablerunplanes,tothemidsection
oftheplane,wherethecabletieholescease.
Thisisthepointwhereyoustopandruntothefrontoftheuppercablerunplane,leaving
enoughslackintheinstallationforsocablesdon’tpinchorstretch.
