Assembly and Mounting Instructions – DETAILED STEPS
Preparing the Enclosure Box
BEFORE BEGINNING, PLEASE READ THE SAFETY NOTICE ON THE FIRST PAGE OF THIS DOCUMENT
The Enclosure Box for the TV and Lift System should be constructed of materials no less than
¾”
thick. We recommend a
high-grade plywood or combi-core material.
The back and top of the enclosure are the parts that must be able to support
the weight of the lift and TV, so particle board materials are not suitable for use in this project.
The Enclosure Box dimensions depend on the size of your TV. Please review the Installation Dimensions Drawing on page
10 before beginning.
IF YOU HAVE THE SPACE, WE RECOMMEND INCREASING EACH DIMENSION BY 1” TO MAKE FOR
EASIER INSTALLATION AND SERVICE ACCESS.
The End, Front and Back panels of the Enclosure Box should be attached to the underside of the Top Cover, so that the
Top Cover is resting on top of the four panels. This provides the maximum strength for holding the Lift and TV in its
inverted orientation.
Step 1: Cut the five panels from ¾” plywood.
Paint the inside of the panels a dark color before assembly. This will help
camouflage the Enclosure Box after it is installed.
Step 2:
Determine where the electrical power will feed into the Enclosure Box. Cut out the appropriate sized opening
near the top of the End Panel nearest the power feed.
We recommend using a 110V duplex outlet and conduit that
conform to the building code for your location.
Step 3:
Cut out a Control Box Access door in one of the panels, to ensure accessibility of the control box.
a)
This will provide convenient access to the electrical connections in the Control Box after installation.
b)
Put hinges and a latch (not provided) on the outside of the door so it opens
OUT.
c)
Re-attach the Access Door to the Back Panel.
Step 4: If a ventilation fan (not provided) is needed (in climates where attic temperatures exceed 110 degrees F), cut
the opening for the fan near the top of the End Panel opposite the electrical feed. This will vent into the attic.
