Important Safety Instructions
When using your video equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:
- Read and understand all instructions before using.
- Position the cord so that it will not be tripped over, pulled, or contact hot surfaces.
- If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with a current rating at least equal to that of the appliance should be used. Cords rated for less amperage than the appliance may overheat.
- To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble this appliance. Contact an authorized service dealer when repair work is required. Incorrect reassembly can cause electric shock when the appliance is used subsequently.
- The use of an accessory attachment not recommended by the manufacturer may cause a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.

Slide Da-Lift projector lift up with all (4) four threaded rods into the mounting brackets. Install 1/2” nuts under the mounting brackets. Adjust the frame to the proper height and level with bottom nuts on the rod. Lock the mounting brackets in place with the nuts on the top of each rod. Frame must be level and solid. Additional bracing may be required, based on construction.
