angler Retractable Green Screen Instruction Manual

angler Retractable Green Screen

Thank you for choosing Angler.

Angler’s retractable 7 × 10-foot green screen is ideal for studios and meeting and conference rooms where space is at a premium, and a green screen needs to be deployed in seconds. The screen comes in a sturdy metal case that’s equipped with keyholes for wall mounting, and hooks for suspending it from a ceiling. The auto-lock holds the screen at the desired length and retracts it with a slight pull, just like a window shade.This screen provides a broad background that can fit up to five people and allow you to shoot in portrait or landscape orientation. Adjust the height to capture half- or whole-body shots, and use the chroma green backdrop to digitally insert the background of your choice with most green-screen software. The polyester fabric absorbs light and prevents glare for even illumination across the screen for a flawless background from edge to edge.

Precautions

• Please read and follow these instructions, and keep this manual in a safe place.
• Do not attempt to disassemble or repair the equipment–doing so will void the warranty, and Angler will not be responsible for any damage.
• Make sure the screen is mounted securely before proceeding.
• Check the weight limitations of the supporting structure and mounting components to ensure you do not exceed the lowest weight capacity.
• Examine the front and back of the screen for dirt and debris before rerolling.
• Follow the cleaning instructions in this manual.
• All images are for illustrative purposes only.

Overview

Wall Mounting Instructions

1. Measure the distance between the keyholes at the back of the screen’s end caps. Use that measurement to mark the locations of the mounting holes on the wall. Use a level to make sure it’s even.Note: Drywall is not strong enough to support the backdrop for repeated use. For a more secure wall mount, sink the screws into wall studs or fortify your wall by adding a mounting plate, wood blocking, or bracing.
2. Drill holes in the marked locations for wall anchors, molly bolts, or toggle bolts. If you’re using wall anchors, tap the anchors into the holes.Note: Many wall anchors and molly bolts are self-tapping and don’t require a drill for installation.
3. Insert screws (for wall anchors), molly bolts, or toggle bolts into the holes. Leave 1/8-inch of each screw out of the wall. Make sure they’re secure before mounting the screen.
4. Align the screen’s mounting holes with the mounting screws, and seat the screen onto the screws.

Ceiling Mounting Instructions

Use chains to suspend the screen from a ceiling.

1. Measure the distance between the hooks on the screen’s end caps. Use that measurement to determine how far apart the chains should be.
2. Use eye hooks or similar fasteners to attach the chains to the ceiling.
3. Use chain connectors like carabiners or threaded quick links to attach the ceiling mount hooks to the chains.

Wall Extension Bracket Mounting

You can also use chains to suspend the screen from a pair of wall extension brackets. Mount the brackets to the wall, and then use the Ceiling Mounting Instructions above to hang the screen from the brackets.

Operation

Pull the screen down with the lanyard or the handle. When the screen is at the desired length, slightly raise the screen to allow the auto-lock to engage.

Retract the screen by using the handle or lanyard to pull it down approximately 1 to 2 inches to disengage the auto-lock, and slowly guide the screen back into the case.

Important! To ensure the screen does not sustain damage during use:

• Pull the screen straight down and not at an angle to the wall.
• Gently pull the screen down, and slowly guide it up when you retract it.
• Don’t let the screen scrape against the case.
• Pull from the handle, and not from the screen material itself.
• Do not touch the screen.

Maintenance

Clean the screen material with soap and water on a soft cloth. When the screen is not in use, retract it into its case to keep the surface clean.
