How to install Da-Lite Fast-Fold Truss/Truss Deluxe Replacement Surface

Installing the replacement surface is a straightforward process designed to minimize downtime and keep your events running smoothly. Follow these practical steps to ensure a clean, tensioned, and secure installation that maintains the quality you expect from Da-Lite surfaces.

• Prepare the frame: Power down all equipment and detach any accessories that could obstruct access to the projection surface. Gently inspect the Fast-Fold Truss/Truss Deluxe frame to confirm there are no bent or damaged components.
• Remove the old surface (if applicable): With care, detach the existing surface from the frame. If the surface is attached with Velcro, snaps, or hooks, release each attachment method evenly to avoid warping or stretching the new surface.
• Inspect the frame edges: Clean the frame’s edge surfaces to remove dust, fibers, or adhesive residues that could hinder proper alignment. A clean surface helps the new Da-Tex stay flat and wrinkle-free.
• Align the replacement surface: Position the new 156" x 204" Da-Tex surface so that all corners and edges align with the frame. Start by matching one corner or edge, then progressively center and tension the surface to ensure an even, wrinkle-free plane.
• Tension and secure: If the frame uses Velcro, clips, or tensioning straps, apply them gradually around the perimeter to maintain uniform tension. Avoid over-tightening in one area, which can cause warping or fabric distortion.
• Test the surface: Reconnect power, project a test image, and check for uniform brightness, edge sharpness, and any creases or bubbles. If needed, make small tension adjustments to achieve a perfectly flat projection area.
• Reinstall accessories and calibrate: Reattach any previously removed accessories. If your projector or lighting setup requires recalibration, perform quick adjustments to ensure the image aligns with the newly installed surface.
• Maintenance tips: After use, store the frame in a clean, dry environment. Periodically inspect the surface for wear and clean with a soft, dry cloth or a microfiber cloth to preserve brightness and color fidelity.
