For screen sizes between 60 and 400 not indicated on the tables, use the formula below:
Throw Distance (distance from front of casing to screen) = [Screen Width (W)  x  Throw Ratio (magnification)] +/- [ extension]
(where [extension] = distance between front of casing and end of lens)
Example: Throw Distance for 2.5m wide screen using zoom lens 001-736 set to 1.3 : 1
Throw Distance = 2.5m  x  1.3 = 3.25m + .088m = 3.34m
= 98in x 1.3 = 127in + 3.5in =...
