Using a pencil or felt tipped pen, mark the locations of
the projectors threaded inserts onto the grid for refer-
ence. (Fig. 7)

Verify that the dimensions (H x W) of the mounting lands on y0ur projector fall within
the mounting grid footprint for your PMD mount.

Place a large washer (1) over mounting screw, and
then insert screw through grid at marked location.

Lift the projector mounting plate and place a second
large washer (1) onto the end of the screw, followed by a
metal spacer (2). Loosely thread (2-3 turns) screw as-
sembly into the chosen threaded insert on the bottom of
the projector. (Fig. 9)

Repeat this procedure for the remaining threaded inserts.
(Fig. 10)
Note: A 1” plastic spacer (3) is included for projectors
with uneven mounting surfaces. Trim the plastic spacer to
the required length, and install on appropriate mounting
screw.

With an electronic stud finder, locate center of ceiling stud in desired mounting loca-
tion. Unscrew ceiling plate (E) from Projector Mounting top plate (A). Use ceiling plate
as a template, and mark mounting hole locations. Drill mounting holes to a depth of 3”
using a 3/16” drill bit. Mount ceiling plate to stud with 5/16” lag bolts (J).
Gently pull the extension tube of the pipe drop as-
sembly down to the required projector height. Rotate
extension tube so that adjustment screw holes are
visible through the support tube. (Fig. 1)
Step 3
Secure the pipe position by installing ½” long hex
screws (I) into adjustment screw holes. For a cleaner
appearance, insert plastic plugs (K) into unused
holes on extension tube.

Wall Mount
Separate top and bottom projector mounting plates
(A&B), by sliding them apart. (Fig. 2)
Standard Ceiling Mount
Press plastic cover (D) into place over ceiling plate.
Attach pipe drop assembly (C) to ceiling plate with three 5/8” hex
screws (H).
Fig. 2
Note: Orient the cable management port on the pipe drop assem-
bly so that it faces the projector cable drop.
Thread ¼” hex head set screw (F) into side of pipe collar,
on top projector mounting plate (A). (Fig. 3)
Extended Ceiling Mount
Note: If necessary, screw in tilt knob to gain access to the
set screw hole.
For installations that require a ceiling drop in
excess of 18”, standard 1 ½” pipe may be used
to extend the standard pipe drop assembly.
Fig. 3
Pipe extension should be cut to the required
additional length, threaded on both ends, and
then attached to the standard pipe drop as-
sembly with a pipe coupler (not supplied).
Loosely thread top projector mounting plate (A) onto threaded
portion of pipe drop.
Note: Orient the cable management port on
the pipe drop assembly so that it faces the
projector cable drop.
Position top projector mounting plate into desired orientation
(horizontal or vertical), and then tighten set screw (F). (Fig. 4)
Fig. 4
Flush Ceiling Mount
For installations with low ceilings, the flush ceiling mount
should be used. Note: cable management is not available
with the flush mount. Proceed to step 3.
Thread cable bundle through cable management port at top of
pipe assembly, down through the pipe assembly, and then out
through the cable management port on the rear of the projector
mounting plate. (Fig. 5) (Standard ceiling mount only) Be sure
to leave enough cable to reach the mounted projector.
Wall Mount
Fig. 5
With the addition of the OmniMount PMD-WM wall mount
(sold separately); the PMD can be mounted to a wall instead
of the ceiling. This is particularly useful for small confer-
ence/classrooms where a ceiling mount is impractical. Refer
to the PMD-WM installation instructions.
Flush Ceiling Mount
For flush ceiling mount, loosely thread top projector
mounting plate directly onto threaded portion of ceiling
plate. Note: Plastic cover is not used for flush mount.
