Product Description

The Yard Master Manual is a non-electric outdoor projector screen for wall and patio installations that brings media room quality to your outdoor spaces. Its sleek aluminum casing beautifully accessorizes your backyard, patio, pool deck or anywhere a gathering for evening movie time is appropriate.

Outdoor Projection Screen Disclaimer
Never leave your projection screen out and exposed to direct sunlight. Regardless of screen brand, prolonged exposure to the sun’s ultraviolet radiation degrades the chemical bonds causing the material to eventually decompose. Photodegradation first causes the material to lose its theater- grade reflective qualities. Eventually, nature will destroy even synthetic materials. For this reason, the Yard Master Manual has a retractable design that allows the material to be drawn up into its protective casing to be shielded from solar radiation.

Screen Operation

  1. Pull the screen down from the lanyard or the handle only in a 90-degree angle. The screen is designed to stop at any location. To achieve this, make sure to pull straight down and allow the screen to come up to lock into place. Do not attempt to pull the screen down by the surface or touch the screen, as it will damage the screen and void the warranty.
  2. To retract the screen, simply pull the screen down more than 2 inches and retract the screen back releasing it up gently. The screen is equipped with a SLOW RETRACT MECHANISM which allows the screen to slowly retract without the need to hold on to the handle or lanyard. Simply release the handle and the screen will retract by itself into the housing.

Attention : If the screen does not unlock, carefully pull the screen straight down with a little force. Always pull the screen down at a 90-degree angle.

Securing the weight bar location

  1. Pull the screen down until you have reached the desired location.
  2. Mark the drill-hole area of where the screw is to be installed, then retract the screen.
  3. Drill the hole and insert an M10Anchor (C), secure it with an M5x50 Screw (C). Allow a 1-inch gap between the wall and screw head to allow room for the weight bar and pull handle to release freely.
  4. Pull the screen down and secure it to the screw location. Make any adjustments if there are any deviations.
    Note : Remove the screw when not in use any longer to avoid an accident.

How to ground the screen
