Preparation for the install
When installing the pro ection screen it is important that you choose the correct fasteners for your ceiling type.
Choosing the wrong fasteners can cause damage to the screen and severely in ure a person. If you do not know the
proper fastener type then it is required to hire a professional.
Find a proper location on your ceiling to install the pro ection screen. Make sure that no load bearing supports will be
cut or compromised during the installation.
Prepare to cut a hole in your ceiling as shown below.
Measure the total width of the case (A) and subtract 20mm(3/4”) for your hole length. The hole width will be
140mm(5 ½”). After you have identified your location and have measured twice you are now prepared to cut once.
Measure and mark the place for your ceiling brackets.
The distance between the center part of each ceiling bracket is (A) and subtract 116mm(4 ½”). The ceiling mounting
bracket holes are placed 48mm(1 7/8”) apart.
