The Phantom video projector lift uses the Skyhook projector mount system.
The parts kit contains:
-Two long skyhook arms
-Four short skyhook arms
-Four M3, four M4, four M5 & four M6 mounting bolts (30 mm)
-Four spacers (
1
/2" [12.7],
5
/8" [15.875],
3
/4" [19.05],
7
/8" [22.225 mm])
1 Determine which size mounting bolts suit your projector, and set others
aside. They are no longer required. If your projector has only three
mounting holes, set aside one of the skyhook arms.
2 Assemble the universal mount (see diagram at right) using arms
appropriate to projector. Spread out the arms so each end is over one of
the mounting holes.
3 Connect universal mount to Projector. Fit the
1
/2" (12.7 mm) spacer under
the lowest arm, the
5
/8" (15.875 mm) under the next arm and so on. If the
projector base is uneven, you may use combinations of spacers and arms
to ensure the triangular plate is horizontal.
4 Do not tighten any bolts yet.
5 Move the position of the triangular plate over the center of the projector,
with the edge with the two holes towards the front (lens).
6 Tighten the mounting bolts. The projector and universal mount are ready to
be inserted into the Phantom. Please note the projector will be in the
upright, or desktop, mode.
7 First ensure that the Phantom is operating correctly, and that the projector
cables are properly secured. Open the Phantom and insert the triangular
projector plate into the slot in the rear of the Phantom. Attach it at the front
using the supplied ¼" (6.35 mm)-20 bolts and springs.
8 These bolts will also give you Roll and Tilt adjustment to align your image
on the screen, while the center
5
/16" (8 mm) bolt provides Yaw adjustment.
The springs will ensure that the projector is held still during motion. Do not
install the projector plate without springs.
Cable Management
A cable exit hole is pre-drilled in the bottom panel. Make sure to leave enough
slack in the cable to account for the motion of the Phantom during operation.

In order to use the
skyhook universal
mount, the mounting
holes in your projector
must be located within
the area indicated by
the circle.
Minimum: 3" (7.6 cm)
Maximum: 13" (33 cm)
Caution: Beware of pinch point.
The Phantom comes with four 1" sections of hook & loop attachment strips
for attachment in all four corners of a closure panel (provided by others).
Please note the following when installing a closure panel:
1 Please use the hook & loop attachment system for attaching the closure
panel to the Phantom. This provides a safety back-up in case fingers or
other objects are caught between the closure and the tabletop when the
closure closes: The hook & loop attachment strips will separate, leaving the
closure panel loose and preventing pinching or injury.
Caution: If you permanently attach the closure panel to the Phantom
using screws or other means, there is a danger of pinching, injuries to
fingers and damage to other objects.
2 Remember that the total weight of the projector, bracket and closure panel
cannot exceed 26 lbs (11.8 kg).
3 Be sure to leave enough space between the edge of the closure and the
surrounding tabletop to allow the closure edge to clear the table during
opening and closing of the closure. There should be a minimum gap of
3
/
16
".

Custom panel should be same size. The weight of the panel needs to be
factored in for the total weight. See 2 above. Hook & loop attachment strips
must also be used to attach custom closure to the Phantom (see 1 above).
