Tighten each screw until the SpiroLock™ Ceiling Plate is secure against the ceiling. Do not overtighten the #14 x 2˝ screws. Proceed to “Attaching the Projector Plate” on page 9.
SPI Installing the SpiroLock™ Mount (cont’d) Step 1 Place the SpiroLock™ Ceiling Plate into position ®® against the ceiling. Use a pencil and mark four (4) mounting hole locations through each of the mounting points (B) in the SpiroLock™ Ceiling Plate.

Step 2 Drill a hole at each mark using the appropriate ®® ¯¯ diameter masonry bit for your wedge anchor.
SPI 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 Attaching the Projector Plate (cont’d) Step 2 Insert the mounting hardware, as determined in “Selecting the Mounting Hardware” on page 9, 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 Attaching the Projector Plate (cont’d) Step 5 Verify that the mounting legs are at an equal height. ®® Return to Step 3 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 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.
