Airoframe Setup & Instructions
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Keep it Cool: To maintain its shape and integrity, avoid placing it in areas of extreme heat like a hot car on a summer day or in direct, intense sunlight for extended periods.
ACRYLIC CARE | THE SHIELD
The included Acrylic Care Kit is everything you need to ensure your Shield stays perfectly clean and clear for a long time.
Dusting: Use a clean, soft microfiber cloth to gently whisk away dust.
Cleaning: Use only a dedicated acrylic cleaner or a mix of mild dish soap and lukewarm water. We have included a sample sized Novus #1 which both cleans and shines. Only use a very fine mist on the face of the acrylic and then used the included microfiber cloth ensuring no dust or debris is stuck to the surface before polishing lightly.
WARNING: Never use window cleaners (like Windex), paper towels, or any alcohol-based products. These can cause "crazing" (tiny cracks) or permanent clouding of the clear face.
3M COMMAND™ | REMOVAL GUIDE
Clear the Frame: First, remove the Shield cover (if applicable) and your disc.
Remove the Mount: Grip the Center Stage Mounting System with one hand, and the frame backer with the other. Then rotate the mount clockwise until it stops, then lift it off. This will reveal the backer frame and the Command Strip tab.
The Stretch Release: Locate the pull-tab at the bottom of the strip. Grasp the tab and pull straight down toward the floor in a slow, consistent manner.
Safety First: Continue pulling (the strip may stretch up to 12 inches!) until it completely releases from the wall. Do not pull the strip toward you or away from the wall, as this can damage the surface.
SHIELD | VARIABLE MOUNT | NAIL
1. Remove the Shield cover by gripping the frame with both hands so that your thumbs are on the front rim and your fingers on the back of the frame. While pressing down rotate both of your thumbs in a counter clockwise direction to unlock the cover.
2. Prepare the Mount: With the Center Stage Variable Mount secured to the backer frame, flip the assembly over so the large gear wheel is facing up.
3. Loosen the Lock: Use your fingers to gently loosen the small screw knob in the center until the larger wheel moves freely.
4. Adjust the Arms: Turning the large wheel clockwise extends the gripper arms; turning it counter-clockwise retracts them.
5. Align & Center: With the arms fully retracted, place your disc on the mount. Note that the nail hanger notch on the back is positioned exactly between two of the cushioned arms.
6. Secure the Grip: Turn the large wheel clockwise until the arms begin to center the disc. Adjust until you have a moderate grip, then tighten the small center screw knob.
7. Final Assembly: Place the Shield cover onto the backer by lining up the slots and turning it clockwise to lock.
