IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ THROUGH ALL INSTRUCTIONS (INCLUDING ACCESORY
INSTRUCTIONS) BEFORE BEGINNING YOUR INSTALLATION.
This lift is designed to be used with a Wall Plate Controller, either automatically or manually controlled and will
function without any special training in the “Show” mode. The Wall Plate Controller features a key switch
which can be placed in the “Show” or “Auto” positions for normal operation. The “Off” position disables the
Lift. The “Service” position must be used only by trained technical personnel when the Lift is lowered to floor
level for service/access.
Note: The “Auto” position on the Wall Plate Controller is for Accessory #4 Power Sensor, Accessory #5 Power
Sensor with Screen Control, and Accessory #15 12-Volt Trigger only
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 projector must be
removed
and the Lift's lower frame supported by straps, chain, or cable to prevent it from lowering
unexpectedly while the drive system is being serviced.
IMPORTANT
If an Accessory #2 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 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.
4. PRELIMINARY INSTALLATION CHECKS
•
SVS recommends that the Lift support structure holds at least four (4) times the weight of the Lift and
projector combined. You should always follow your local building codes.
•
Required space for the Lift, projector, 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, projector audio/video/control cabling, and power
connections.
•
Do not install the projector 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. SVS scissor lifts are shipped in a slightly open position to eliminate stress on the
limit switches and to maintain a tight cable pack on the cable drum. If physical height measurements are
taken before the blocks are removed from the Lift, they may not accurately reflect the height of the
closed Lift.
•
All weight attached to the Lift must be centered between the Lift's cables. The balance point of the
projector should be placed in line with the Lift cables (
+
/- 1-inch). If this is not possible you may need to
counter weight the Lift to keep the Lift level.
•
For ease of installation the Lift can be hoisted into the ceiling location with blocks and tackle, or by
using a ratchet puller.
