Safety

!

Warning!

Suspending any object is potentially dangerous and should only be attempted by individuals

who have a thorough knowledge of the techniques and regulations of suspending objects

overhead. Bosch strongly recommends all loudspeakers be suspended taking into account all

current national, federal, state, and local laws and regulations. It is the responsibility of the

installer to ensure all loudspeakers are safely installed in accordance with all such

requirements. When loudspeakers are suspended, Bosch strongly recommends the system be

inspected at least once per year or as laws and regulations require. If any sign of weakness or

damage is detected, remedial action should be taken immediately. The user is responsible for

making sure the wall, ceiling, or structure is capable of supporting all objects suspended

overhead. Any hardware used to suspend a loudspeaker not associated with Bosch is the

responsibility of others.

Safety Agency Compliance

The LB6-S and LB6-SW100 bracket systems have successfully passed EIA-636 at a safety
factor of 8:1. The bracket systems are intended to support only the LB6-S and LB6-SW100
respectively. Do not use either bracket system for any other purpose. Never set anything on or
hang anything from the LB6-S or LB6-SW100 enclosures when using the brackets.

As an added safety measure, it is suggested the user install an extra suspension point back to
the building structural supports. This redundant safety point should have as little slack as
possible (less than one (1) inch is preferable).
