1. Select the location for your screen within a reasonable angle of projection for your home
projector and access to a good power source.
2. For the best support of your screen, it is ideal to secure your screen into the studs of your house's
internal framework. If studs are not available, use hollow anchors for mounting your wall-
screws in drywall or if you are installing in a concrete structure, use the concrete bolts for
securing your screen into concrete walls. (Always Consult Installer or Hardware Store for
the correct screws)
3. Make sure that the level in perfect horizontal alignment with one another. Use wall/ceiling
wood screws to secure to the wood studs. Use hollow wall anchors if mounting in drywall.
4. Position the washers to the head of the wall-screw. The washers give added stability by enabling
to remain firmly anchored to the wall.
5. The screen casing is designed to accept the wall screws directly. If not using the Optional L-
bracket, be sure to position the washer between the head of the wall-screw and the anchor slots
on the projector casing.
Regardless of mounting method, screen should be securely supported so that vibration or even
abusive pulling on the viewing surface will not cause case to work loose or fall. Installer must
insure that fasteners used are of adequate strength and suitable for the mounting surface chosen.
1. Using a tape measure, mark the keyholes that are located at the back of the screen's case end cap.
2. After marking the area and predrilled hole, insert the screw and leave about 1/8” of an inch from the wall to
mount the screen. (Fig. 1)
