Installation Instructions
Take out all the parts from the packaging and verify that all the parts have been included. Then
follow the steps below to install the screen.
1. Locate top, bottom, and side frame pieces (Fig. 1.1) and lay them on a clean, flat surface.
[Figure 1.1]
2. Lay out the frame rails aligned with the corner brackets (Fig. 2.1). Slide a bracket into the
slot at each angled end of the side frame rails (Fig. 2.2) and secure in place with two corner
bracket screws, but do not tighten the screws all the way down. Join the side frame rails to
the upper and lower frame rails, allowing the exposed bracket to slide into the track at the
angled end of the upper and lower frame rails. Secure the corner brackets in place with the
remaining bracket screws and fully tighten all bracket screws (Fig. 2.3). The frame should
now be square at all four corners with no gaps.

3. Attach the mounting brackets to the back of the frame with mounting screws.
[Figure 3.1]
4. Attach the wall brackets to the mounting rail using hex bolts and a washer, and secure
loosely with a hex nut.

5. Before tightening the nuts, attach the mounting bracket to the frame brackets using bolts
and washers, and fasten loosely with hex nuts. Ensure the bracket is centered and straight
relative to the frame, then secure all nuts tightly.
[Figure 3.3] [Figure 3.4]
6. Position the frame in the desired position on the wall, and mark the holes in the mounting
rails. Remove the mounting rails from the frame. Pre-drill the mounting holes based on the
5
Instruction Manual for Deluxe Curved Series Fixed Frame
marks. Insert wall anchors if needed. Attach the mounting rails to the wall using the
appropriate screws (see note 3.1).

Note 3.1:
For a wood framed wall: Use drywall anchors or locate two studs in the wall that are spaced
apart the appropriate distance and then secure each mounting rail to the center of each stud
with the included mounting screws. Ensure that the screws fasten firmly into the studs,
otherwise the rails will not be secured.
For a concrete wall: Use an electric drill and a 5/16” (8mm) bit to drill holes for each rail and
hammer the provided tapping anchors into each hole. Secure the rails onto the wall by fastening
the tapping screws to the tapping anchors.
7. Unroll the screen material and carefully lay it on a clean surface, projection-side-down and
rotated in the correct direction.
8. Lay out the tension rods around the screen material (Fig. 4.1). Insert the two short tension
rods into the left and right side pockets of the screen material (Fig. 4.2). Be careful not to
puncture the screen material as you slide the rods through the screen pockets. Insert the
two long rods into the upper and lower pockets of the screen material (Fig. 4.3).
Note 4.1: Sometimes it can be difficult to slide the longer rods completely through the pockets.
It may be helpful to use one hand to keep tension on the nearest installed short tension rod for
leverage while feeding the long tension rod through the longer pocket.

9. With the screen material laying out in the frame insert one end of the support bar into the
proper track on the frame (Fig. 5.1). With one end of the support bar in place, slide the
other end of the bar left or right until the angle allows for the end of the bar to slide into
the track. Slide the support bar back along the track until it is square with the frame (Fig.
5.2). *Some smaller screens do not require a support bar, and will not be shipped with one.

10. Count the number of cut-out notches at each edge of the screen material. Then hook one
spring per cut-out notch onto the frame at the corresponding location. On each spring, the
small hook is for connecting to the frame and the larger hook is for connecting to the
screen tension rod. For each corner of the frame, stretch the two closest springs to the
corner onto the exposed tension rods at each cut-out notch (Fig. 6.1). Then continue to
stretch the springs onto each tension rod at the cut-out notches all around the screen
material until all springs are attached (Fig. 6.2). Always use larger springs first. Only use
smaller springs if more tension is needed.

Note 6.1: For acoustically-transparent screen materials, please see Appendix A: Black Backing
Instructions in this guide for steps to attach the black backing fabric before mounting the screen
on the wall.
11. Secure the frame and screen to the mounting brackets on the wall with the appropriate
bolts, washers, and hex nuts as pictured in figures 7.1 and 7.2.

Appendix A: Black Backing Instructions
Follow these instructions to properly secure the included black backing to a Severtson Screens
Fixed Frame Projection Screen. This guide applies to all Deluxe Curved Series Fixed Frame models
with acoustically transparent material.
This guide is intended to be followed after the screen material has been attached to the frame, but
before it has been installed in its desired location.
Before proceeding, be sure that the screen is fully assembled and laying front-side-down on a
clean, flat surface.
1. Line up the black backing. Lay each corner of the black backing onto the back of the frame.
Ensure that the black backing is rotated the correct direction so that the entire back of the
screen material will be covered by the black backing.
2. Secure the black backing at each corner. Release the two springs closest to each corner
from the tension rods. Lay the black backing over the rod and hook the springs back over
the tension rod and the black backing. Tuck the very corner of the material behind the
tension rods to hold it firmly in place.

3. Secure the remainder of the black backing. The black backing should now be secured at the
corners, but will be loose along the edges. At the center and several other mounting points
along each edge, release the springs from the screen tension rods and lay the black
backing over the rod, then reattach the springs. This will effectively tuck the black backing
between the tension rod and each spring so that it will be secured in place. Your black
backing is now properly installed.

Warnings
1. The frame is made with lightweight aluminum. Please handle with care.
2. Make sure the fasteners used are firmly secured to the wall to avoid any damage.
3. When installing the screen material onto the frame, make sure it is facing forward (viewing
side toward the projector).
4. Be careful not to scratch or damage the screen surface while handling it.
5. Do not write or draw on screen surface. Do not poke, fold, or tear screen material.
6. Do not use detergents or harsh chemicals to clean screen material. A soft cloth and mild
soap can clean dust and dirt off the screen material. A cotton cloth can be used to gently
wipe dust off of the frame. *coated screens should not be cleaned in this manner.
7. Cover the screen to block out dirt and dust if it is not used for an extended period of time.
8. To prevent unnecessary damage, the assembly and maintenance of the screen should be
done by adults.
9. For screens with water-based coatings, simply dust the screen with a clean, lint-free cloth.
You may also blow dust off a coated screen with a leaf blower or similar. If a coated screen
gets something on it that can’t be removed by dusting or blowing, it can be cleaned with a
damp, lint-free cloth using a dabbing motion. DO NOT WIPE A COATED SCREEN WITH
WATER.
