Suspended surface assembly and a method for deploying same

A method of deploying a suspended surface assembly, the method comprising:

• providing a suspended surface assembly having a trainable surface support element, a spindle component configured for training of the trainable surface support element therearound, a take-up action module configured to drivingly rotate the spindle component to thereby effect winding of the trainable surface support element onto the spindle component or to effect unwinding of the trainable surface support element from a partially or fully wound-up condition, and a lift complex for adjusting the vertical position of the trainable surface support element and the spindle component, the lift complex including a motive power element operable to both drivingly rotate the spindle component and to drivingly raise and lower the trainable surface support element and the spindle component;
• and
• operating the motive power element to both drivingly rotate the spindle component and to drivingly raise and lower the trainable surface support element and the spindle component.
