If there are only three mounting points, remove one Leg from the Universal projector Interface by removing the Acorn Nut. If necessary, add Extension Arms (B) to the Universal Projector Interface (A) by removing the Adjustable feet and Installing them on the Extension Arms as shown in iagram 2B. Secure the Extension Arms (B) to the Universal Projector Interface, using the M6 x 8 mm (S) screws as shown in iagram 2B. Adjust the Adjustable Feet as shown in iagram 2C, making sure to allow for proper air ventilation and keeping the Universal Projector Interface level with the projector. Some Adjustable Feet may need to be at different heights. If the mounting holes are closer than a five inch diameter, lower the feet all the way to allow the Threaded Stud to swing under the Ceiling Plate (C). etermine the proper screw size and depth, M3 x 10 mm (O), M4 x 12 mm (P), M5 x 12 mm (Q), or M6 x 12 mm (R), and corresponding Washers (L, M) for projector mounting. Using correct Screws (O,P,Q,R) and Washers (L,M), secure the back two legs of the Universal Projector Interface (A) to the projector; then, secure the front legs. Move the Universal Projector Interface (A) to the center of gravity of the projector. You can locate the center of gravity by attempting to lift the projector straight up. If it feels like it wants to twist, move the Universal Projector Interface toward the heavy side. When the projector feels balanced, you have located the center of gravity.
