PRE-INSTALLATION
MERCURY SLIM
PRE-INSTALLATION
BEFORE INSTALL:
•When choosing your lift, keep in mind variances of the display panel size due to things like speakers on
the side, top or bottom. These can increase the size of the lift that you will need. Check that the screen is
not larger than the maximum screen size allowed.
•Check above the ceiling for obstructions (i.e., water pipes, cables, and duct work) before beginning
installation.
•After establishing the correct location for the lift and display panel, cut a hole in the ceiling at the size
listed on the following page.
•Organise a qualified trades person to frame up the roof to accommodate the Spartan so that it can be
mounted in the correct position.
•Route AV cables from the source to the roof location where the Lift will be in-stalled.
•Ensure that a double power point has been installed in the roof (or where suit-able) so that the Lift and
display panel can receive power.
•Before mounting the display panel to the Lift, ensure that it will suit the Lift in relation to dimensions,
loading capacity and functionality.
•Read instructions completely before proceeding. Follow instructions carefully. Installation contrary to
instructions invalidates warranty.
CAUTION
•Do not obstruct operation of lift with fingers or any object. Injury or damage could result.
•Check above the ceiling for obstructions (i.e., water pipers, cable, and duct work) before beginning
installation.
•Do not connect any power to the lift until installation is complete
•Attach the display panel only after the lift has been properly installed and tested.
•Unit operates on a 240V with a current draw of 1A and a 6.5mA standby.
•If adjusting the limits, do so prior to wiring into control systems.
•Organise your mounting hardware and have the necessary tools readily accessible before installation.
IMPORTANT WARNING
Follow cable spooling orientation as shown below when installing new motor and adjusting
limits. See the page for motor limit adjustment, motor type, and wire colour combination for
more information.

PRE-INSTALLATION
MERCURY SLIM
It is critical that the tension of the cables on the Mercury remains unchanged.
Changing the tension of the cables will damage the Mercury and void your warranty.
To ensure the tension remains unchanged from factory defaults, please note the following:
•NEVER open or close the Mercury lift manually (i.e., by hand):
Doing so may reduce the tension in the cables, causing them to bunch up on the tubular motor and
prevent the lift from raising or lowering properly. The cables may snap if this is the case.

PRE-INSTALLATION

•NEVER disconnect the spool cables:
Doing so will cause the tension of each cable to become uneven/unbalanced, making the load
applied to the lifting mechanism uneven. This can cause the Mercury Lift to malfunction and may
cause the cables to snap.
Preparation:
1. Prepare the ceiling cut-out according to the Ceiling Cut-out sizes (CW and CD) in the Specifications of your
lift.
2. Frame up the ceiling joists or hanger rails using a qualified trades person.
3. Route the Audio-Visual cables to the lift position in the ceiling.
4. A double power point is required in the ceiling to power the Mercury Slim and the display
panel.
Note
•Access to the power point in the ceiling is advisable

INSTALLATION
MERCURY SLIM
INSTALLATION
1. Cut 8 mm threaded rods to suit the distance from
the slab/hanger rails to the Lift fixing points on the
top corners of the Mercury Slim.
2. Fix the pre-cut threaded rod to the slab or ceiling
hanger rails as shown below.
3. Fit one M8 nut and washer to each threaded rod.
4. Fit one M8 nut and washer 100 mm up from the
bottom of the threaded rod.
5. Raise the Mercury Slim unit into the pre-cut hole
from the underside. Fit the threaded rod through
the top frame of the lift. Fit nuts and washers to suspend the lift.
6. Adjust nuts until the lower frame sits 1-2mm above the plaster underside. Screw a minimum of four
M8 x 50 coach screws through the fixing holes on the inside frame of the Lift, into the pre-built
timber support frame.

CABLE MANAGEMENT
MERCURY SLIM
CABLE MANAGEMENT
1. Connect cables to the display panel and run-down cable management arms as per diagram below. Make
use of Cable Ties to fix the cables to the lift.
2. Be sure to allow the extra cable length on the cable management arm. Be careful to avoid potential
pinching of cables, particularly around the cut-out area.
3. Reconnect power to the lift.
IMPORTANT WARNING
Cables must be securely attached to the frame to avoid pinching of the cables. Raise and
lower the lift several times using the controller, closely watching the cables to make sure
they do not interfere with the lift operation. The Installer is responsible for ensuring the
cables do not interfere with the mechanism as the unit raises and lowers.

MOTOR LIMITS ADJUSTMENT
MERCURY SLIM
MOTOR LIMITS ADJUSTMENT
When adjusting the motor limits use the motor key.
1. Lower the Lift using the remote-control handset.
2. Adjust the motor down limit if required with caution.
3. Raise by adjusting the desired-up motor limit.
CAUTION
When setting the motor limits, adjust the Up and Down limits with caution. The Up and Down limits are set
in the factory to recommended positions. Minor adjustment may be necessary. In the rare case that the
factory settings are slightly out, the down limit may be adjusted with caution. Minor adjustment may be
necessary if the weight of your screen or projector has sagged the cable length.
