Scissor Lift SL by Draper page 2 of 5

Installing Projector

Generally, the video projector should be suspended from the Projector Pan

according to projector manufacturer’s instructions and recommended standard

ceiling mounting hardware. Projector should be bolted to Projector Pan as in a

normal ceiling mounting. Equipment should not be allowed to rest on optional

ceiling closure during operation.

The Scissor Lift SL has a grounded 115V AC, 60 Hz power cord for projector

power supply. The power cord is laced down the back scissor and is “hot” at all

times.

Control cables should be laced through our Cable Management System on

rear scissor mechanism only. Route the cables and attach with plastic wire ties

similar to factory installed power cable. Make sure to use ﬂexible cables. Plenum

rated cables are typically too stiff and should not be used. Installer is responsible

for ensuring cables do not stretch, kink, or interfere with the scissor mechanism as

the unit raises and lowers. This will ensure that cords do not become tangled and

damaged during Scissor Lift SL operation.

Unit and projection system should be operated, checked and adjusted as

necessary at this time.

NOTE: Immediately upon completion of the surrounding ceiling, units should be

operated to conﬁrm that optional ceiling closure panel stops just short of touching

ceiling in closed position.

Warning: Keep ﬁngers and other objects away from automatic ceiling closure

and scissor mechanisms when unit is operating. Serious injury or damage could

result.

Installing Optional Universal Projector Mount

If you ordered the unit with optional Universal Projector Mount pre-installed,

disregard these instructions.

If you did not order the mount pre-installed, you will need to install a new

Projector Pan, which includes the Universal Projector Mount's rectangular plate.

The optional Universal Projector Mount will hold up to 26 lbs.

 Lower unit until the Bottom Pan is resting on a tabletop or other stable and

sturdy surface.

 Remove Lifting Cable Bar from Bottom Pan (see Fig. 2).

 Remove bolts holding Projector Pan to Bottom Pan (see Fig. 2).

 Remove Projector Pan and set aside.

 Place new Projector Pan with Universal Mount into place.

 Re-attach Projector Pan to Bottom Pan.

 Re-attach Lifting Cable Bar to Bottom Pan.

Secondary Method—Adjusting Lifting Cable Bar

(if above does not work)

Run the unit to its "Service" position and make sure pan is level. Try and set so

that pan is not more than ¾" out of level. However, the pan does not have to

be perfectly level, as long as the positioning is consistent and repeatable in

"Show" and "Closed" positions.

 Make sure Bottom Pan is supported.

 Remove screws holding Lifting Cable Bar to the Bottom Pan (see Fig. 2).

 Move Lifting Cable Bar forward or back (see Fig. 2).

 Replace screws.

 Check level again. If still not level, repeat.

Preferred Method—Adjusting Projector Pan

The Projector Pan can be moved forward or back.

 Make sure Bottom Pan is supported.

 Remove the Lifting Cable Bar (see Fig. 2).

 Remove screws holding Projector Pan on Bottom Pan (see Fig. 2).

 Move Bottom Pan forward or back.

 Replace screws.

 Replace Lifting Cable Bar.

Hanging Unit

Please note: If using Environmental Air Space Housing option, go to

Environmental Air Space Housing instructions on page 3.

The Scissor Lift may be installed in a variety of ways; recessed above the

ceiling, or suspended below the ceiling. The lift should be supported by four

threaded mounting rods or bolts with locking nuts. If ceiling recessed, the entire

unit (including the projector) should set approximately 1½" above the ﬁnished

ceiling in its “stored” position. The threaded rods should pass through the corner

mounting ﬂanges and be secured by nuts above and below. The unit should then

be guy wired or blocked to prevent swinging. All installations should observe the

following guidelines:

 If installing above a hard ceiling, optional Draper Access Panels are available to

allow access to the unit.

 Installer must ensure that all fasteners and supports are of adequate strength to

securely support Scissor Lift and projector.

 Fastening methods must be suitable for mounting surface, and securely an-

chored so that vibration or abusive pulling on unit will not weaken installation.

 Unit should be level, with weight shared more or less equally by all four

threaded mounting rods.

 Bottom of unit must be unobstructed after installation. Sufﬁcient clearance must

be allowed below projector or optional ceiling closure.

 Unit must be secured independent from suspended ceiling and do not use unit

to support adjacent ceiling, light ﬁxtures, etc.

 Unit to be installed so when lowered to its lowest point, it is a minimum of 8 feet

(2.44 m) above the ﬂoor.

 Do not complete the ceiling below unit until electrical connections have been

completed and unit has been operated successfully.

 We recommend that safety cables be attached to the Scissor Lift SL for added

security (a sound installation practice with overhead equipment).

 When the Scissor Lift SL is to be installed in “other space used for en-

vironmental air” the optional Environmental Air Space Housing must be

installed per instructions to isolate the lift from the “other space used for

environmental air.”

 When Scissor Lift SL is NOT installed in environmental air space housing and

optional ceiling closure, the ALTERNATE wiring for 'UP' limit switch may be

used. Disconnect both BLACK (BK) wires from 'UP' limit switch and quick

connect them together usingthe provided jumper cable (see Alternate Wiring

schematic on page 5).
