Adjusting the Projector
Caution:
Make sure to support the
projector with one hand while making
any adjustments. You can adjust the
projector’s position up to
±
90° tilt,
±
25° roll, and 360° rotation.
Wood Studs
Wood studs run vertically inside the wall or across the ceiling, behind the drywall
or plaster. The plate must be mounted to a wood stud, or the plate could fall out
and damage the projector or cause personal harm. Make sure the studs are at
least 1.5 inches (38 mm) wide..
1.
Use a stud finder to locate the edges of the
wooden stud.
2.
Mark the centerline of the stud.
3.
Place the mounting plate at the location marked
for your projector, and mark the spot of the two
mounting plate holes for drilling. Make sure this is
on the center line of the stud.
4.
Use a 3/16-inch (4 mm) wood drill bit to predrill
the two marked spots for support holes 2-inches
(50 mm) deep, and then clean out the debris.
5.
Attach the plate by inserting the 50 mm anchor screws through the washers
and mounting plate holes and screwing them into the predrilled support holes
until secure.
Concrete
Warning!
Make sure anchors are installed into solid concrete that is at least
1.75 inches (44.5 mm) thick. If concrete exhibits cracks or other defects, this
may result in failure of the concrete anchors and cause serious personal
injury or equipment damage.
1.
Place the mounting plate at the location marked for your projector, and
mark the spot of the two mounting plate holes for drilling.
2.
Use a 5/16-inch (8 mm) concrete drill bit to make
holes 2.2-inches (55 mm) deep on the marked
spots, and then clean out the debris.
3.
Use a hammer to tap the concrete anchors into each hole.
4.
Attach the plate by inserting the 50 mm screws through the washers
and mounting plate holes and screwing them into the concrete anchors
until secure.
Attaching the Projector
1.
Determine which screws (M2.5 and M3 (with included washers),M4, M5, or
M6) and spacers (3, 4, or 6 mm) to use with your projector.
2.
Loosen the projector mount’s arms with a Philips screwdriver. If your
projector model has only three holes, then remove the fourth arm with the
screwdriver.
3.
Slide the arms along their track, and position them over the projector’s
mounting holes.
4.
Use a Philips screwdriver to secure the mount to the projector, using the
screws from step 1.
5.
Make sure the weight of the projector is as evenly distributed as possible
before tightening the screws of the arms along the track.
6.
Hang the projector from the rotating column’s hooks, and tighten the bolts
with the included hex wrench to secure the projector into position.
Note:
If you have a tall ceiling or
need extra space away from a wall
when attaching this mount, use a
compatible 1.5 NPT extension
column (not included).
Please refer to the instructions
listed in
Using a 1.5 NPT Extension Column
You can use a variety of extension columns (sold seperately) with the universal
1.5 NPT connection to extend or suspend your projector from taller ceilings or
create adequate space away from a wall.
1.
Detach the rotating column from
the mounting plate .
2.
Attach your extension column to
the mounting plate, using a 1.5
NPT coupler (sold separately), and
reattach the rotating column to
the end of the extension column.
3.
Hang the projector from the
rotating column’s hooks and
tighten the bolts with the included
hex wrench.
Using the UPM-360 with Other 1.5 NPT
Compatible Mounting Plates
Use the UPM-360 with other 1.5 NPT
compatible structural mounts or
mounting plates such as the Gabor
SCP-770 Suspended Ceiling Mount-
ing Plate which includes a 1.5 NPT
extension column needed for
attachment.
1.
Attach a 1.5 NPT extension
column to your compatible
mount, and screw the UPM-360’s
rotating column onto the end of
the extension column.
2.
Mount your projector.
