Galaxy Audio PA6SR Powered Hot Spot Monitor with Wireless Lavalier System Yoke Bracket Installation Guide

GALAXY AUDIO SAYB10 YOKE BRACKET INSTALLATION

INSTRUCTIONS for PA6S and HS7 Models

DESCRIPTION:

The SAYB10 Yoke Bracket Kit is used for permanently mounting PA6S and HS7 speaker cabinets to
walls and ceilings. The mounting angle can be adjusted by simply loosening the wing screws at
either end of the yoke and by loosening the bolt where the yoke mounts to the wall plate. These
brackets should be used only on a flat, secure, and stable surface.

PRECAUTIONS:

Whenever an object is affixed to a wall or ceiling, you must take special care to mount it securely to
prevent it from falling and causing damage or injury.

MOUNTING SURFACES: Carefully examine the composition, construction and strength of the
surface you are mounting to. Be sure to provide adequate reinforcement should you deem it
necessary. You must also consider what type of hardware and what type of mounting techniques are
appropriate for each mounting surface.

FASTENERS: Attaching the bracket requires fasteners selected for the strength and composition of
the mounting surfaces involved. Whatever fastener is selected, it should be no smaller than a #8
screw or 1/4" bolt. When drilling pilot holes be sure that the holes are smaller than the core diameter
of the screw. Always use fasteners in all mounting holes and avoid over tightening, as this can
weaken the mounting surface, damage the fasteners, and make the installation much less secure.

SECONDARY SUPPORT: As we recommend the use of a secondary support for added safety, each
yoke bracket is equipped with a safety cable. When properly installed it provides secondary support
without inhibiting the adjustment of the bracket, and can be easily hidden out of sight.

MOUNTING PROCEDURE:

PREVIEW: After evaluating the mounting surfaces and obtaining the appropriate fasteners, the
installation will consist of the following steps, in order:

1. Mounting the bracket plate to the wall or ceiling.

2. Bolting the yoke to the plate.

3. Installing the threaded inserts into the cabinet.

4. Joining the cabinet with the bracket assembly.

5. Installing the safety cable.

6. Adjusting the speaker position and tightening the yoke bolt and wing screws.

TOOLS REQUIRED: You will need at least these tools for installation:

7/16" box end wrench
large crimping pliers
tools to secure the fasteners selected for the bracket assembly (drill, screwdrivers, etc.)
carpenter's level for precise positioning of the speaker. (optional)

Note: It is often helpful to have another person available to hold the speaker in place during
the tightening procedure.

INSTALLATION:

ATTACHING THE BRACKET ASSEMBLY TO THE MOUNTING SURFACE:
Position the bracket assembly onto the wall or ceiling at the location you have selected, preferably to
a stud, joist or other structural member rather than only to drywall or other non-structural material.
Make sure there will be enough clearance to rotate and tilt the speaker to the desired angle. Using
the base plate of the bracket assembly as a template, mark the four hole locations.

NOTE: Check that any holes you drill and the fasteners will not interfere with any wiring,
plumbing, etc. that may be behind the mounting surface.

Prepare the mounting surface and the four holes for the fasteners. Pull speaker wires through the
mounting surface and the feed thru the hole in the bracket. Secure the bracket base plate. Do not
over tighten fasteners! Bolt the yoke to the base plate and tighten with a 7/16" box end wrench.

INSTALLING THREADED INSERTS INTO CABINET: Drive the 2 threaded inserts into the slots at
each end of the cabinet using a punch and hammer. Be sure to install the inserts in the direction
shown in the photo on page 3. Drive the inserts all the way in until they seat against the bottom of the
slot. Install one of the included 1/4”x6-32 machine screws into each insert to lock them in place.

JOINING THE CABINET TO THE BRACKET ASSEMBLY:
Lift the speaker into position so that the wing screws at the ends of the yoke line up with the T-nuts in
the cabinets. Tighten the wing screws by hand.

SECURING THE SAFETY CABLE:
Mount the cable clamp to the rear of the cabinet as shown in the photos on page 4. For the HS7, use
the included 1/2”x#7 “High-Low Thread” screw for plastic. You may use either of the two available
holes on the rear of the cabinet. For the PA6S, remove the 1/4”x6-32 screw from the clamp mounting
location on the cabinet and use the included 1/2”x6-32 machine screw to mount the cable clamp as
shown. Slip the loose end of the safety cable through the cable clamp located at the back of the
cabinet. Bring the cable back through the crimp sleeve and firmly crimp the sleeve with a large pair
of crimping pliers.

ADJUSTMENT:
Loosen the yoke bolt just enough to slide or rotate the yoke to the desired position. Tighten the yoke
bolt securely with a 7/16" box end wrench. If necessary loosen the wing screws and tilt the Hot Spot
to the desired position. Re-tighten the wing screws firmly by hand. After a few minutes check the
assembly for any slippage and re-tighten. Connect the speaker wires and the installation is
complete.
