how to install Da-Lite Fabric and Roller Assembly

Follow these general steps to install the Da-Lite Fabric and Roller Assembly in your space. Ensure you have the correct mounting hardware for your wall or ceiling type and the appropriate Da-Lite fabric compatibility for your project.

• Prepare the installation area by turning off power in the room and clearing the space where the screen will be mounted. Locate studs or use appropriate anchors for secure mounting.
• Attach the mounting brackets to the wall or ceiling according to the included template, ensuring the brackets are perfectly level and aligned with the screen plane to prevent misalignment during operation.
• Mount the roller assembly onto the brackets and tighten securely. Verify that the roller spins freely and that the housing remains firmly attached with no wobble.
• Thread the screen fabric through the roller as directed by the model’s instructions. Attach the fabric to the bottom bar or anchoring points, then gradually apply tension to achieve a smooth, wrinkle-free surface when fully extended.
• Test the system by lowering and raising the screen several times. Check for even tension, proper alignment, and absence of creases. Make small adjustments to brackets or tension settings if necessary, and trim any excess fabric according to the manufacturer’s guidance.
