2.3 Lifting the Displays
While DataMaster outdoor digit displays are designed for pole mounting, every installation
will be different. Actual site demands will dictate the appropriate mounting method.
Daktronics strongly recommends using a spreader or lifting bar to lift the display. Using a
spreader bar ensures that the force on the eyebolts is straight up, minimizing lifting stress.
Figure 5 illustrates the correct and incorrect lifting methods.

Note: Daktronics assumes no liability for display damage or injury resulting from
incorrect setup or incorrect lifting methods.
Eyebolts are intended for lifting during installation only. Do not attempt to
permanently support the display by the eyebolts.
Eyebolts may be removed once the display is in place. The bolt sizes and threads vary based
on the size and weight of the display. Common bolts used are 1/4"-20, 3/8"-16, 1/2"-13, and
5/8"-11.
