PREPARING THE INSTALLATION
5
Be sure to unpack carefully in a clean area. Use special care when handling the screen so that it does not become soiled or damaged.
If you plan to repack your screen and hardware for transportation to another location, you may wish to photograph or make a
note of how it was packed. Keep the packing material.
Unpacking
Preparation
Note: Bolts and other fasteners for the screen are standard gauge and sizes used in the U.S., regardless of where they
will be installed. For this reason, the sizes are expressed in inches rather than metric measurements.
Caution: Do not stand on the screen tube or store it on its end. This will cause screen damage. If you are not going to install the
screen immediately, make sure it remains horizontal during storage.
♦Lint-free, clean cloth gloves for handling the screen
♦Ladders for the personnel supporting the screen during the mounting process
♦A level
♦Fasteners appropriate for the surface on which the screen is being mounted
♦A drill
♦Tools for tightening fasteners
You will need:
♦Make sure there is a clean surface on which to unroll the screen and assemble the frame.
♦Check the size and weight of the screen to be installed so that you can plan for the number of people required for installation.
You need at least two people to mount the smaller screens; more are needed for larger, heavier screens.
Before beginning the installation:
Specications regarding the individual screen dimensions, weight, etc. are provided by the factory when the unit is
ordered.
Before proceeding with the installation of this screen, take time to thoroughly read and understand these
installation instructions.

FRAME ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Connect the frame members by matching the colored, numbered dots on the ends of the members.
2. Secure the frame members with the supplied 5/16-18 x 1/2” hex head bolts.
6
Figure 1: Frame Assembly

1. Identify the location of wall studs where you can securely mount the EZ Mount hanging bar.
2. Use a level to accurately position the EZ Mount hanging bar on the wall.
3. Drill holes through the bar into the studs.
4. Use the provided 2” screws or other appropriate fasteners to secure the EZ Mount hanging bar to the wall studs.
Note: A minimum of three (3) screws are recommended to safely secure the frame.
5. Check to make sure the bar is level.
6. Assemble frame (see page 6).
7. Hang the assembled frame, without the screen attached, on the EZ Mount hanging bar to ensure that it is correctly
mounted.
8. Mark on the wall where you will mount the steel pucks to studs that will align with the magnets fastened on the frame.
Note: Find studs that allow the pucks and magnets to be positioned approximately 12” to 24” from
the edge of the frame on each side.
9. Remove the frame. Drill into the studs and mount the steel pucks with the provided 2-3/8” screws or other
appropriate fasteners. Use shims as needed.
10. Reposition the frame, slide and secure the magnets so that they align with the steel pucks mounted on the wall.
11. Remove the frame and follow the steps for attaching the screen to the frame (see pages 14-15).
12. Your ScreenWall is now ready to hang in its final position. See figures 2-4 on page 8.
To accurately position the frame, you will mount the EZ Mount hanging bar and temporarily hang the frame prior
to attaching the screen material. On the bottom of the frame, there are magnets you can slide to line up with
steel disks you will align with wall studs. If the wall is not perfectly flat, the force of the magnet may cause the
frame to bend. For this reason, shims can be used to place between the wall and the steel pucks so that the
frame lays completely flat. The screen should not be attached to the frame at this point. Refer to figures 2-4 on
page 8.
Professional mounting techniques should be used. Stewart Filmscreen can not be liable for substan-
dard or faulty installations.

ATTACHING THE SCREEN TO THE FRAME

If there are any wrinkles or puckers in the screen, the snaps on the frame can be
adjusted side to side. Lay the frame viewing side down on a clean surface. A
movement of 1/16” to 1/8” (1.6mm to 3.2mm) is usually sufficient to eliminate
puckers.
Note:

5. Starting with the snaps on the top corners and then horizontally along the top, while lifting the frame with one hand, snap
the screen into the frame. Gently allow the screen to stretch onto the snaps. Do not jerk, wrinkle or crease the screen
material, as it can be damaged. Refer to Figure 13.

No user-serviceable parts are contained within the unit. Contact your dealer or the factory if you require part
replacement or service.
Replacement Parts & Service
♦Use a lint roller to remove particles from the VeLux, which is the velvet material covering the frame.
♦A brush may be used to comb (lift) the nap of the VeLux material to help eliminate depression marks.
VeLux™ Covering
♦Do not use any other cleaning materials on the screen.
♦Do not use chemicals or solvents to clean the screen. Use only commercially available, water-based de-greaser.
♦Do not use chemicals, solvents, or liquid cleaners to clean the VeLux covering.
♦Do not fold or crease the screen.
Caution
♦Avoid getting any foreign objects on the screen, as cleaning may prove very difficult. It may not be possible to remove
scratches, paint, ink, etc.
♦Adraftsman-style brush may be used to lightly whisk away any loose dirt or dust particles. (This type of brush is usually
available at office supply stores.) Stewart Filmscreen has an optional screen cleaning kit that contains the proper type
of brush. Contact your dealer if you would like to obtain this cleaning kit.
♦For tougher spots, you can make a cleaning solution using a water-based detergent and warm water. To make the
solution, mix one part Simple Green, 409, or other water based industrial cleaner with three parts warm water. Moisten
a clean cotton cloth or Q-Tip with this solution, moisten the stained area, and gently lift off the stain. Never use an
aggressive scrubbing action as you could damage the screen surface by removing the optical coating. Remoisten the
area with clean water and dab dry with a clean sponge or cotton cloth. Any residual watermarks will evaporate on their
own in a few minutes.
♦Contact the factory if you have questions about removing difficult spots.
The surface of your screen is delicate, so we encourage you to keep your screen clean. Special attention to
these instructions should be followed when cleaning.
General Maintenance
With reasonable care, you may expect many years of dependable use of your Stewart projection screen.
