Please read the following before use. Failure to follow the instructions could result in serious injury, property damage, and/or void the device warranty.

Falcon Ceiling Mount Precautions

1. The Falcon ceiling mount is designed specifically for mounting a Falcon to a ceiling or a Foresight Sports simulator frame. Do NOT attempt to mount additional items to the provided mount, as the additional weight may result in damage and/or failure. 

2. Do NOT install the ceiling mount in a location where vibration or impact shock may occur. This may result in damage to or failure of the mount. 

3. Prior to installing the Falcon ceiling mount, make sure the ceiling area is strong enough to hold a minimum of 75 pounds. If the ceiling area is not strong enough, reinforce the area prior to installation. 

4. Never modify the ceiling mount, assembly components, or Falcon. 

5. Do NOT install the ceiling mount and Falcon in a location where the operating temperature for the Falcon may be exceeded. Excessive temperatures may damage the Falcon. Recommended operating temperature range is 35F-115F. 

6. Install the ceiling mount in a place free from excessive dust and humidity to prevent the lens or optical components of the Falcon from becoming clouded or dirty. 

7. Do NOT use excessive force when adjusting the ceiling mount or Falcon.
