IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ THROUGH ALL INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE BEGINNING YOUR INSTALLATION.
This Lift is designed to be used with a Wall Plate Controller, either automatically or manually controlled.
The Wall Plate Controller features a key switch which can be placed in the “ON” or “OFF” positions for
normal operation. The “Off” position disables the Lift. The “ON” position allows the lift to be lowered
and raised using the Up/Down toggle switch.
WARNING
To prevent personal injury and property damage when servicing any part of the Lift drive system
(electric motor/brake, drive chain/sprockets, steel lift cables, and/or drum lock assembly) the screen must
be removed and the Lift's boom supported by straps, chain, or cable to prevent it from lowering
unexpectedly while the drive system is being serviced.
IMPORTANT
Please read all Accessory Installation Instructions before beginning your installation. If an Accessory
PSS-1 Plenum Shroud is to be installed with the Lift. Please read the Accessory Installation Instructions
before beginning your installation. The Lift support structure will need to allow enough space to install
the mounting hardware for the Plenum Shroud.
TO AVOID CABLE SPILLS
•
Do not push the lift boom upwards once the Lift has been installed.
•
Make sure that there are no obstructions in the Lift's path. If the boom is lowered onto an
obstruction the cable will slack and spill over the cable drum.
4. PRELIMINARY INSTALLATION CHECKS
•
SVS recommends that the Lift support structure holds at least four (4) times the weight of the Lift and
screen combined. The rear support structure should hold three (3) times this amount due to the up thrust
caused as the lift pivots down from the ceiling. The rear threaded rods should be reinforced
approximately 12-inches up from the lift to avoid buckling under the up thrust. Always follow your
local building codes.
•
Required space for the Lift, screen, and accessories should be considered prior to installation. Check for
obstructions that may prevent the Lift or accessories from being installed or operated.
•
Plan for necessary Lift low voltage control cabling, screen audio/video/control cabling, and power
connections.
•
Do not install the screen on the Lift until the Lift, hardware, and any accessories have been properly
installed and are operational.
•
This Lift has been adjusted with cables tightly packed on the cable drum and leveled for precise tracking
prior to being shipped from the factory. Do not remove the lift's shipping blocks until instructed to
do so in Section 7.
•
All weight attached to the Lift must be centered on the lift's boom.
•
As a reminder, clear all persons and obstructions from the Lift's path during its operation. Keep fingers
and other objects away all moving parts. Technical personnel should always be present when the Lift is
being serviced.
