SVS 12HSE LIFT Installation Instructions Manual - page 9
1. Raise the Lift into the ceiling and line up the six (6)
mounting holes in the Lift's top frame with the 1/2”
threaded rods of the supporting structure. Make sure that
there is a top nut and a flat washer on each threaded rod
before the Lift is mounted. See Figure 6. (Plenum Shrouds
require additional hardware installed on the threaded rods
before the Lift.)
2. Once the Lift's top frame has been inserted, add a hexnut to
each threaded rod below the Lift frame. Always leave the
top nut loose to allow adjustments until the Lift is leveled.
3. Level the Lift's top frame side-to-side and front-to-back
using the lower hexnuts on the threaded rods.
4. Once the Lift is leveled, secure the Lift to the threaded rods by tightening the upper hexnuts. Do not
over tighten the fasteners as it could distort the Lifts top frame.
5. Plug the 12-pin connector of the Wall Plate Controller into the 12-pin socket on the Lift's gray electrical
box mounted on the Lifts top frame. The Wall Plate Controller includes 75-feet of cable and is shipped
with the Lift. It is located in the cardboard box attached to the lid of the Lift's shipping crate.
6. Once the Lift is properly installed in the ceiling and leveled, you can remove the shipping blocks.
Remove the blocks by removing the screws and tie-raps holding them in place.
Leveling the Projector
•
If you can not level the projector using the projector's leveling adjustments, you can adjust the level of
the lift.
•
Level corrections are made with the projector mounted after confirming that the cable is packed tightly
and is straight on the Cable Drum.
•
It is best to lower the lift to the Service position and then completely up before leveling the projector.
•
Level adjustments should be made with the projector in the Show position.
•
Position a level across the front of the projector. Fine adjustments are done by adjusting the nuts on the
bottom of the cable eye bolts. Raise and lower the Lift until satisfactory level is achieved.
•
After adjustments are made tighten the eye bolt nuts.
TO AVOID CABLE SPILLS
•
Do not push the lift bottom frame upwards once the Lift has been installed.
•
Make sure that there are no obstructions in the Lifts path. If the bottom frame is lowered onto an
obstruction the cable will slack and spill over the cable drum. If the cable spills over the cable
drum and the Lift is not stopped the cable will back-wind onto the cable drum causing severe
damage to the Lift and accessories.
