Initial Considerations

Plan your install: Measure the cassette length and centerline of the viewing area. Brackets should be placed 2"–8" from each end of the cassette.
Weight capacity: Standard kits include two Solo 3 - 375 Flown Kit brackets, each rated for 50 lbs. If your screen weighs over 100 lbs, a third bracket is required.
Mounting surface: Wood screws are included for mounting into wood studs only. For other surfaces, the installer must use appropriate fasteners.

Installation

Proper bracket installation is critical to ensure a secure and long-lasting setup.

Mounting Location: Brackets must be secured to structural elements such as ceiling joists.
Fasteners: Use the included wood screws for wood substrates. For other materials, use appropriate anchors (not provided) rated for the load and compatible with the surface.
⚠️ Important: Do not mount into hollow drywall—this will not support the weight of the screen.

Installing Solo 3 Flown Kit Brackets

Identify the Viewing Area
Determine the vertical centerline of your desired viewing area to guide bracket placement.
Position the Brackets
Measure the total length of the cassette. Brackets must be placed 2"–8" from each end.
Mark the minimum and maximum horizontal bracket locations accordingly.
Run the provided cable through the top plates and install the top plates to structural supports.
- Each bracket & cable is capable of supporting up to 50 lbs.
Position the brackets on the cassette so that they will be in line with the hanging cables.
Loosen the set screw in the brackets so that the cassette hook is positioned all the way down.
Hook the cassette onto the bracket.
- Then use the 5/64'' hex key to turn the bottom screw until the cassette bottoms out on the bracket.
Use the 3/32'' hex key to tighten the locking screw in the back of the bracket.
Insert the cables in receptacle on top of the pin and raise the cassette to the desired height.
- Pull the cable through the grip-lock while lifting to raise the cassette.
- Press the cap on the top of the grip-lock while pushing down on the bracket to lower the cassette.
Ensure the cassette is horizontally level by adjusting the vertical position of the brackets on the cables.
Ensure the cassette is plumb by sliding it forward or backward on the bracket slots.
- Adjusting one side will affect the other side so fine tuning will be required between both the ends.
- Once the cassette is plumb on both ends then tighten the knurled nut onto the top of the bracket to lock the grip-lock into place.
