  2. Ensure the screws used to attach the mount to the projector meet the following specifications:
    • Screw type: M4 x 8
    • Maximum Screw Length: 8 mm
  3. To access the ceiling mount points, remove the three (3) foot pads on the bottom of the projector.

CAUTION
  • Avoid installing the projector near a heat source.
  • Keep at least a 10 cm (3.9 in.) gap between the ceiling and the bottom of the projector.
