Installation To Wood Joist Ceilings
• Installer must verify that the supporting surface will safely support the combined load of the equipment and all
attached hardware and components.
• Tighten wood screws so that projector mount assembly is firmly attached, but do not overtighten. Overtightening
can damage the screws, greatly reducing their holding power.
• Never tighten in excess of 80 in. • lb (9 N.M.).
• Make sure that mounting screws are anchored into the center of the stud. The use of an "edge to edge" stud finder
is highly recommended.
• Hardware provided is for attachment of mount through standard thickness drywall or plaster into wood studs. Install-
ers are responsible to provide hardware for other types of mounting situations (not UL evaluated).
Place projector mount assembly (A) on ceiling as a template and mark the center of the two mounting holes. Make
1
sure that the mounting holes are in the center of the wood joist. Drill two 5/32" (4 mm) dia. holes to a minimum
depth of 2.5" (64 mm). Attach projector mount assembly (A) with two #14 x 2.5" (6 mm x 65 mm) wood screws (L)
and two flat washers (K) as shown in figure 1.3 or figure 1.4 depending on joist orientation.
NOTE: Mounting slots on projector mount assembly allow for 30° (±15°) of swivel adjustment before fully securing
wood screws.
Tighten wood screws (L) using 3/8" (10 mm) socket or open end wrench or phillips screwdriver until projector
mount assembly (A) is firmly attached.
Skip to step 2.
