INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Please Read Carefully Before Installing or Operating

• Read all instructions carefully

• Heed all warnings

• Assure that the speaker is securely mounted

Hearing Damage

CAUTION: All professional loudspeaker systems are capable of generating very high sound pressure

levels. Use care with placement and operation to avoid exposure to excessive levels that can cause
permanent hearing damage.

SUSPENSION & MOUNTING

Suspension or "fl ying" speaker systems requires training and expertise. Improper rigging of a fl ying
speaker may result in injury, death, equipment damage, and legal liability. Installation must be carried
out by fully qualifi ed installers, in accordance with all required safety codes and standards at the place of
installation.

A 5:1 design factor is a generally accepted minimum standard. However, legal requirements for overhead
suspension vary by municipality, please consult your local safety standards offi ce before installing any
product. We also recommend that you thoroughly check any laws and bylaws prior to installation.

Loudspeakers fl own in theaters, nightclubs, conference centers, or other places of work and
entertainment must be provided with an independent, correctly rated and securely attached secondary
safety — in addition to the principle suspension point(s). This secondary safety must prevent the
loudspeaker from dropping more than (6") should the principle suspension device fail. If you lack the
skills, training, and proper ancillary equipment to fl y a speaker system, do not attempt to do so.

For additional information regarding the suspension of loudspeakers or to purchase rigging materials,
please contact our friends at
