Professional mounting techniques should be used. Stewart Filmscreen
Corporation cannot be liable for substandard or faulty installations.

General notes

The screen and frame are typically shipped as one complete unit. In some
instances, knocked-down, pre-drilled frame components and hardware are
shipped ready for assembly.

In some cases, no frame is supplied, as the screen is built in as part of the
installation.

Coated side

One side of the screen has a special optical coating. Whenever possible,
the screen should be installed with the coated side toward the audience.
The picture is more pleasing because there is no imaging reflection of
lighted objects in the audience. Exceptions are:

‹

Where the screen environment is uncontrolled and potential
abuse of the coating is a concern.

‹

Screen marking pens are used during projection.

Unpacking and handling

‹

Keep the screen protected until the environment is clean and
there is no danger of damage to the optical coating.

‹

Open the crate as indicated, as this will expose the non-coated
side of the screen.

‹

If the screen is already attached to the frame, do not lift the
screen by the upper frame member, as the frame may pull off the
screen, damaging the coating.

‹

Use suction cups to remove and install the screen. Use the
suction cups only on the non-coated side of the screen.

‹

Keep hands and tools off the optical coating. Use cotton gloves
when installing the screen.

Installing the screen in the aperture

In general, the installation of a rigid rear projection screen is similar to the
process used when installing a window in a house. Use care when
handling the screen, especially the coated side, as mentioned above.

Once the screen is in place, make sure that it is level and plumb. Use
shims as needed.
