T o Attach the Strong Arm Mounts to the Array Bracket:

1. There are five channels on each side of the array bracket that correspond to different Strong Arm Mounts. ZX1i
loudspeakers use the center channel and the two outer channels (Figure 3a), EVID 4.2 and 6.2 loudspeakers use the
middle three channels (Figure 3b), and the EVID 3.2 uses the center channel only (Figure 3c).

2. Insert the (4) 1/4-20 x 3/4" bolts (Item 4) into the (4) washers (Item 5) and Strong Arm Mount (included with
loudspeaker). Fasten the (4) lock nuts (Item 3) on the bolt by hand; the nut should be loose (Figure 4a).

3. Slide the (4) nuts into the appropriate channels on the array bracket (Item 1) until approximately centered (Figure 4b).
Securely tighten the bolts using a 3/16" hex wrench (Figure 4c).

4. Repeat steps 1-3 for either two or four loudspeakers.
