Ok I will be mounting my M8000 soon and just had a few questions.
first off I reversed the scan rates YEAH! So now my picture is upside down... perfect.
I have the mounting bracket for the thing so that is no problem.
Questions:
1. Will the feet work to mount it, or should I get bolts that are of the same size and thread? I was going to add washers either way.
2. I bought 1/2" MDF to mount on my ceiling joists in my basement, I was going to screw the MDF to my joists with many 2 1/2" wood screws (it spans 2 joists). Will this be enough to hold everything?
3. I am going to bolt the bracket to the MDF, it only has place for 4 bolts, what size should I use? 1/2" good enough? Washers and nuts of course.
4. Should I trust the Manual for distance? I want a 1.78 screen, I made the screen already it's 90" x 50.5" I tested the projector on the floor and it was about 120" to the feet. I didn't measure the feet to lens distance but it looks like 6" then the book is correct, since that would make my throw distance 114" the book says 113.8" (same when I use the formula).
Any other tips? Don't drop it!
Thanks
