SPI-PRO Features The SpiroLock™ Universal Projector Mount is easy to install. Snap and lock the projector onto the mount, then rotate and pivot freely for the optimal viewing angle. The Lock-It™ security screws and leveling barrel add an extra layer of security and theft deterrence. Ceiling Plate Can easily be installed on either a wood stud or solid ceiling. Tool-Free Adjustment Precise yaw, pitch and roll adjustments without requiring specialized tools.
SPI-PRO Installing the SpiroLock™ Introduction You may secure the SpiroLock™ mount to a single ceiling stud; a solid surface ceiling, such as concrete; a 1-1/2” NPT pipe; or a Premier Mounts ceiling adapter. See the Premier Mounts Website at www.mounts.com for compatible ceiling adapters. Read these installation instructions thoroughly before attempting to install the Premier Mounts product.
SPI-PRO Wood Stud Installation Step 1 Use an electronic stud finder to locate a ceiling stud ®® ¯¯ closest to your desired installation location. Identify the center of the ceiling stud. Use a pencil to mark the location of the ceiling stud center. The target arrow indicates the direction of the projector screen relative to the projector mount. CeStud nte r Step 2 Place the SpiroLock™ Ceiling Plate against the ®® ceiling. Its mounting holes should align with the center of the ceiling stud.
SPI-PRO Wood Stud Installation (cont’d) Step 4 Insert one (1) #14 x 2˝ screw through each of the ®® mounting holes (A) on the bottom of the SpiroLock™ Ceiling Plate and into the pilot holes. Tighten each screw until the SpiroLock™ Ceiling Plate is secure against the ceiling. Do not overtighten the #14 x 2˝ screws. If applicable, drill a hole above the mounting hole for wiring access. A A Step 5 Secure the SpiroLock™ and close nipple onto the ®® Ceiling Plate.
SPI-PRO Solid Ceiling Installation Introduction You can mount the SpiroLock™ projector mount to any solid surface ceiling that has a minimum 6˝ thickness. For concrete installation use concrete wedge anchors (¼˝ recommended) to secure the mounting hardware and a masonry drill bit to drill the pilot holes. Wedge anchors and masonry drill bits are not supplied, but you can purchase them at your local hardware store.
SPI-PRO Solid Ceiling Installation (cont’d) Step 3 Move the SpiroLock™ Ceiling Plate back into position. ®® Thread a wedge anchor nut (and washer, if provided with the wedge anchor) onto each threaded wedge anchor shaft. Do not tighten any of the wedge anchor nuts (and any washers) until all nuts and washers are threaded onto the shafts. Do not overtighten the wedge anchor nuts. If applicable, drill a hole above the mounting hole for wiring access.
SPI-PRO Attaching to a 1-1/2” NPT Pipe See the Premier Mounts Website at www.mounts.com for compatible ceiling adapters. Secure a 1-1/2” NPT pipe or Premier Mounts ceiling 1-1/2” NPT Pipe adapter into the ceiling. This step does not require the use of the Ceiling Plate or close nipple. ®® Attach the SpiroLock™ to the NPT pipe (Figure 1). Make sure the SpiroLock™ is threaded into the NPT pipe at least four complete turns.
SPI-PRO Attaching the Projector Plate Selecting the Mounting Hardware Insert a small straw or toothpick into the threaded ®® ¯¯ °° ±± inserts found on the bottom or top of the projector. Use a pencil to mark the depth of the threaded insert on the small straw or toothpick. Mark the straw or toothpick 1/8” above the depth of the threaded insert, as shown in Figure 1.
SPI-PRO Attaching the Projector Plate (cont’d) Step 2 Insert the mounting hardware, as determined in “Selecting the Mounting Hardware”, through the leveling barrel into the thread insert of the projector. Do not tighten the mounting hardware at this time. Step 3 Raise or lower each of the mounting legs, by rotating the leveling barrels, until all of the mounting legs are at an equal height. • Lower the mounting legs by rotating the leveling barrel counter-clockwise.
SPI-PRO Attaching the Projector Plate (cont’d) Step 5 Verify that the mounting legs are at an equal height. ®® Return to Step 3 on page 12 if they are not at an equal height or the SpiroLock™ Projector Plate is not level. Verify the position of the integrated sliding M6 square nut in the mounting leg relative to a nearby slot on the SpiroLock™ Projector Plate. If the M6 square nut is not aligned with any slot, you can use any thin implement, such as a toothpick, to nudge it into alignment.
SPI-PRO Attaching the Projector Plate (cont’d) Single Mounting Point Installation Use a single ¼-20 x 5/16″ screw to attach the SpiroLock™ Projector Plate to the projector if your projector has only one mounting point. Do not overtighten the ¼-20 x 5/16″ screw. Attaching the Projector to the Mount Step 1 If your projector is heavy and/or bulky, two people may be required to safely attach the projector to the SpiroLock™ Ceiling Plate or NPT pipe.
SPI-PRO Attaching the Projector to the Mount (cont’d) Step 3 Tighten the M4 x 12mm Lock-It™ screw in the SpiroLock™ collar assembly. Alignment & Fine-Tuning Loosen the two (2) M10 x 10mm set screws to fine-tune the projector alignment. ®® Adjust the pitch, roll, and yaw of the projector up to 6° by firmly grasping the projector with both hands and slowly ¯¯ °° tilting it forward, backward, and side-to-side.
SPI-PRO Removing the Projector The SpiroLock™ projector mount can be removed quickly if the projector needs service. If the projector is heavy and/or bulky, two people may be required to safely remove the projector from the SpiroLock™ Ceiling Plate or NPT pipe. If the projector is mounted higher than shoulder height, you may need to use one or more ladders to safely remove the projector from the SpiroLock™ Ceiling Plate or NPT pipe.
