Hanging Unit

Please note: If using Environmental Air Space Housing option, go to
Environmental Air Space Housing instructions on page 3.
The Scissor Lift may be installed in a variety of ways; recessed above
the ceiling, or sus pend ed below the ceiling. The lift should be supported by
four ½" thread ed mount ing rods. If ceiling recessed, the entire unit (including
the projector) should set approximately 1½" above the fi n ished ceiling in its
"stored" position. The threaded rods should pass through the corner mount ing
fl anges and be secured by nuts above and below. The unit should then be guy
wired or blocked to pre vent swing ing.
All installations should observe the following guidelines:
① If installing above a hard ceiling, optional Draper Access Panels are
available to allow access to the unit.
② Installer must ensure that all fasteners and supports are of ad e quate
strength to securely support Scissor Lift and projector.
③ Fastening methods must be suitable for mounting surface, and se cure ly
anchored so that vibration or abusive pulling on unit will not weaken
installation.
④ Unit should be level, with weight shared more or less equally by all four
threaded mount ing rods.
⑤ Bottom of unit must be unobstructed after installation. Suffi cient clear ance
must be allowed below projector or optional ceiling closure.
Caution: Beware
of pinch points
