5. Setup and Installation
The OVERMAX projector screen can be mounted on a wall or ceiling. Choose the most suitable location for your viewing environment.
5.1 Choosing a Location
- Ensure the projection surface is flat and free from obstructions.
- Consider the projector's throw distance and angle to ensure the image fills the screen correctly.
- Avoid areas with strong ambient light if possible, to maximize image contrast.
5.2 Mounting Instructions
The screen comes with integrated mounting brackets for easy installation.
- Measure and Mark: Hold the screen in the desired position on the wall or ceiling. Use a pencil to mark the positions for the mounting points. Ensure the marks are level. The total length of the screen casing is approximately 233 cm.
- Drill Holes: Drill pilot holes at the marked locations. The size of the drill bit will depend on the type of mounting hardware (screws, anchors) you are using.
- Install Anchors (if necessary): If mounting into drywall or hollow surfaces, insert appropriate wall anchors into the drilled holes.
- Secure the Screen: Align the screen's mounting brackets with the drilled holes/anchors. Use suitable screws to firmly attach the screen to the wall or ceiling. Ensure both ends are securely fastened.

6. Operating Instructions
The OVERMAX projector screen features a semi-automatic retraction mechanism for smooth operation.
6.1 Extending the Screen
- Locate the pull handle or bar at the bottom center of the screen.
- Gently pull the handle downwards. The screen will unroll smoothly.
- To lock the screen at a desired length, pull it down slightly past the desired position, then slowly release it. The screen will retract slightly and lock into place.
- Ensure the screen is fully extended and locked before starting your projection.
6.2 Retracting the Screen
- Gently pull the screen downwards by the handle for a short distance (approximately 2-3 cm).
- Slowly release the handle. The screen will begin to retract automatically and smoothly into its casing.
- Do not let go of the handle abruptly, as this can cause the screen to retract too quickly and potentially damage the mechanism or the screen material. Guide it gently until it is fully retracted.

7. Maintenance
Proper maintenance will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your projector screen.
- Cleaning the Screen Surface:
- Gently wipe the screen surface with a soft, lint-free cloth.
- For stubborn marks, dampen the cloth slightly with mild soap and water. Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or solvents, as these can damage the screen material.
- Always wipe in one direction to avoid streaks.
- Allow the screen to air dry completely before retracting it.
- Casing and Mechanism:
- Wipe the metal casing with a dry or slightly damp cloth to remove dust.
- Periodically check the mounting brackets and screws to ensure they remain tight and secure.
- Do not lubricate the internal retraction mechanism, as this can interfere with its proper function.
- Storage: When not in use, retract the screen fully into its casing to protect it from dust and damage.
