User Manual for Elite Screens Yard Master Electric Tension Series Projector Screen

Quick guide from the manual

The Yard Master Electric Tension Series is an outdoor projector screen designed for wall, ceiling, or suspended installation. Key operational requirements include ensuring the screen is not exposed to direct sunlight to prevent material degradation and using only authorized accessories. The screen is IP33 rated, meaning it is protected against solid objects larger than 2.5mm and water spray at a 60-degree angle.

Product Description and Disclaimer

This is an outdoor projector screen for wall and patio installations. Important: Never leave the projection screen exposed to direct sunlight, as ultraviolet radiation will degrade the material. The screen features a retractable design to shield the material in its protective casing when not in use.

The unit is IP33 rated. Ensure the power outlet is close to the unit and easily accessible. Do not install on uneven surfaces. Do not overload the power cord. There are no user-serviceable parts; do not disassemble the unit. Disconnect the power during heavy rain, wind, or lightning, and when not in use for long periods.

Installation Instructions

For all installation methods, ensure the screen is securely supported and the mounting surface is level. Wall screws included are complementary and may not be adequate for all surfaces; consult a professional installer if necessary.

3. Hang the screen by placing the downward catch on the back over the bracket's upper catch.
4. Slide the screen left or right to center it.
5. Secure with the M5x25mm screw into the upper hole of the bracket.

Suspended Mount
