• Gli impianti elettrici nei locali prescelti per l'uso dell'apparecchio
rispondono alle normative stabilite dall'ANSI.

• L'apparecchio viene utilizzato come indicato nel libretto delle istruzioni
per l'uso.

Avvertimenti:

• In caso di apertura di parti di rivestimento o rimozione di parti
dell'involucro,
a meno che non si tratti di pezzi rimovibili semplicemente a mano,
possono venire alla luce parti dell'apparecchio conduttrici di tensione.

• Se l'apertura dell'apparecchio dovesse risultare necessaria è indispens­abile staccare precedentemente quest'ultimo da tutte le fonti di tensio­ne. Rispettare tale misura di prevenzione anche prima di un allineamen­to, di operazioni di manutenzione, della messa in esercizio o della
sostituzione di componenti
all'interno dell'apparecchio.

• Allineamento, operazioni di manutenzione o eventuali riparazioni
dell'apparecchio in presenza di tensione vanno eseguite esclusivamente
da personale specializzato ed autorizzato, in grado di eseguire tali
operazioni evitandone
i rischi connessi.

• Le uscite degli altoparlanti contrassegnate dai caratteri IEC 417/5036
(vedi illustrazione 1 a fondo pag.) possono essere conduttrici di tensione
pericolosa con cui evitare il contatto. Per questo motivo, prima di
accendere l'apparecchio, collegare quest'ultimo agli altoparlanti serven­dosi esclusivamente del cavetto d'allacciamento indicato dal produttore.

•Tutte le spine e i cavi di collegamento devono essere avvitati o fissati
all'involucro dell'apparecchio per quanto possibile.

• Utilizzare esclusivamente fusibili del tipo IEC 127 con la indicata
corrente nominale.

• L'utilizzo di fusibili di sicurezza non integri e la messa in corto circuito
del sostegno di metallo sono proibite.

• Non interrompere mai il collegamento con il circuito di protezione.

• Superfici contrassegnate dalla parola "HOT" (vedi illustrazione 2 a fondo
pag.), cosi come griglie di aerazione, dispositivi di raffreddamento e i
loro rivestimenti di protezione, oppure valvole e i relativi rivestimenti
protettivi possono surriscaldarsi notevolmente durante l'uso e per
questo motivo non vanno toccate.

• L'ascolto di suoni ad alto volume può provocare danni permanenti
all'udito. Evitate perciò la diretta vicinanza con altoparlanti ad alta
emissione di suono
e utilizzate cuffie protettive in caso ciò non sia possibile.

Alimentazione:

• L'apparecchio è concepito per il funzionamento continuo.

• La tensione di esercizio deve corrispondere alla tensione di rete a cui ci
si allaccia.

• L'allacciamento alla rete elettrica avviene tramite alimentatore o cavetto
d'alimentazione consegnato insieme all'apparecchio.

• Alimentatore: un cavo di connessione danneggiato non può essere
sostituito. L'alimentatore non può più essere utilizzato.

•Evitate un allacciamento alla rete di corrente utilizzando cassette di
distribuzione sovraccariche.

• La spina di corrente deve essere situata nelle vicinanze dell'apparecchio
e facilmente raggiungibile in qualsiasi momento.

Locali di collocamento:

• Opportuno collocare l'apparecchio su una superficie pulita e orizzontale.

• Non sottoporre l'apparecchio in funzione a scosse e vibrazioni.

• Proteggere l'apparecchio per quanto possibile da umidità e polvere.

• Non collocare l'apparecchio vicino ad acqua, vasche da bagno, lavandini,
lavelli da cucina, locali umidi o piscine. Non appoggiare recipienti
contenenti liquidi - vasi, bicchieri, bottiglie, ecc. - sull'apparecchio.

• Provvedere ad una buone aerazione dell'apparecchio.

•Eventuali aperture previste per la ventilazione dell'apparecchio non
vanno ne bloccate, ne mai coperte. L'apparecchio va collocato ad almeno
20 cm di distanza dalle pareti circostanti e può essere inserito tra altre
componenti di un impianto solo in caso di sufficiente ventilazione e
qualora le direttive di montaggio del produttore vengano rispettate.

•Evitare di esporre l'apparecchio ai raggi del sole e di collocarlo diretta­mente nelle vicinanze di fonti di calore come caloriferi, stufette, ecc.

• Se l'apparecchio viene trasportato rapidamente da un locale freddo ad
uno riscaldato può succedere che al suo interno si crei della condensa.
Ciò va tenuto in considerazione soprattutto in caso di apparecchi a
valvole. Attendere che l'apparecchio abbia assunto la temperatura
ambiente prima di accenderlo.

• Accessori: non collocare l'apparecchio su carrelli, supporti, treppiedi, su­perfici o tavoli instabili. Se l'apparecchio dovesse cadere a terra potrebbe
causare danni a terzi o danneggiarsi irreparabilmente. Utilizzate per il
collocamento dell'apparecchio supporti, treppiedi e superfici che siano
consigliate dal produttore o direttamente comprese nell'offerta di
vendita. Per il collocamento dell'apparecchio attenetevi strettamente alle
istruzioni del produttore, utilizzando esclusivamente accessori da esso
consigliati. L'apparecchio in combinazione ad un supporto va spostato
con molta attenzione. Movimenti bruschi o il collocamento su pavimenti
non piani possono provocare la caduta dell'apparecchio e del suo
supporto.

• Accessori supplementari: non utilizzate mai accessori supplementari che
non siano consigliati dal produttore, potendo essere ciò causa di inci­denti.

• Per proteggere l'apparecchio in caso di temporali o nel caso questo non
venisse utilizzato per diverso tempo si consiglia di staccarne la spina di
corrente.
In questo modo si evitano danni all'apparecchio dovuti a colpi di fulmine
o ad improvvisi aumenti di tensione nel circuito di corrente alternata.

que se le haya vendido junto con el aparato. En la instalación se deben
seguir las indicaciones del productor así como utilizar los accesorios re­comendados por el mismo para colocarlo encima. El conjunto del apara­to con el pedestal se debe mover con mucho cuidado. Un paro brusco, la
aplicación de una fuerza desmesurada o un suelo irregular puede ocasio­nar la caida de todo el conjunto.

• Piezas adicionales: no utilice nunca piezas adicionales que no estén re­comendadas por el productor, ya que se podrían provocar accidentes.

• Para protejer el aparato de una tormenta o si no se supervisa ni utiliza
durante algún tiempo, se debería desconectar la clavija de la red. Así se
evitan daños en el aparato a causa de un rayo y golpes de tensión en la
red de corriente alterna.

®

CT 112

and CT 115

The ConTour Series™ Rigging System’s provisions
for use require that it be installed in accordance
with the following specifications. Before you
begin installation, ensure that the pick points (for
example, a chain hoist) on the stage roof or the
venue’s ceiling comply with BGV-C1 accident pre­vention regulations and that the safety standards
authority TÜV has certified them for the full load.
Prior to every installation, inspect all components
to ensure they are in good working order, taking
particular care to confirm that all Aeroquip tracks
and connecting components (cables, fittings) are
undamaged.

Use only the parts specified in this operating
manual! Be sure to protect cabinets against rain
and moisture when they are deployed outdoors.
These enclosures must be mounted in accordance
with the instructions stipulated in this installation
manual. Keep all documents pertaining to the
system in a safe place.

The principle requirement for safe handling and
trouble-free operation of this rigging system is a
thorough understanding of fundamental
operating safety and safety regulations.
This operating manual contains the most vital
instructions concerning the safe operation of
CT 112 and CT 115 enclosures.

2.1 Responsibilities of the Operator

As the operator, you are obligated to allow
only those persons to work with rigging frames
who are

• 16 years of age or older,

• physically and mentally able, familiar with the
basic rules of industrial safety and accident
prevention, and trained in the handling of
rigging systems.

Be sure to regularly review and confirm
personnel’s working safety awareness.
In addition, task personnel with specific responsi­bilities for setting up, putting into service,
operating, maintaining, and repairing equipment.
Ensure that personnel are trained to work with the

rigging system only under the supervision of a
proficient and experienced technician. Ensure also
that defects, flaws and other damage that could
impede safety are repaired immediately.

2.2 Maintenance, Inspection and Repair of
HK AUDIO®ConTour Series™
Rigging Hardware

Inspections

§ 39, VBG 9a of the German employers’ liability

insurance association’s accident prevention
regulations requires that load-bearing equipment
be inspected by a qualified expert and possible
defects be eliminated prior to initial commissio­ning by the recipient.

§ 40, VBG 9a requires that load-bearing equip-

ment be inspected at least annually for cracks.
When used in dynamic applications, equipment
must be inspected for cracks every six months.

Maintenance

You are authorized to replace easily serviceable
wearing or standard parts in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions. Use original parts for
this purpose.
Tighten screws and bolted connections whenever
necessary.

Repair

In the event that parts of the load-bearing
equipment have been deformed, it is up to the
manufacturer to determine if they are repairable.
Solely the manufacturer is authorized to perform
welding and repair work on load-bearing
equipment.

ConTour Series 1.0

Components:

Stud starter cable:
Steel-wire cable with a length of 270 mm,
including a stud and snap link for fastening the
speaker enclosure to the pick point on the stage
ceiling.

HK Audio®item number: 193 543

Arrest wire
Additional securing cable for flown CT 112/ CT 115
speakers; 4 mm in diameter, 100 cm in length,
including snap links

HK Audio®item number: 193643

EB 10 eyebolt

HK Audio®item number: 193673

2.4 Mounting

Attach the speaker enclosure to a pick point on
the Aeroquip track using a starter cable
comprising a snap link, a cable with the required
length, and a stud. One track is located on the
top of the housing for arraying the enclosure
vertically, and one is on the side for arraying the
enclosure horizontally.

Secure the speaker to prevent it from falling. To
this end, insert an HK AUDIO®EB 10 eyebolt into
the recessed thread on the rear of the CT 112 or
CT 115. Attach the arrest wire to the eyebolt and
transom.

Ensure the pick points are able to handle the
given load (a CT 112 with a starter cable weighs
approx. 27 kg; a CT 115 with a starter cable weighs
approx. 37 kg).

The position of the stud in the Aeroquip track
determines the cabinet’s angle of tilt. Since the
length of the cables used to attach the cabinets to
the rigging point (the ceiling of the venue, a
transom, a cross beam, etc.) will vary according
to the given venue’s mounting options, you must
adjust the length of the cables accordingly. If the
length of the HK AUDIO®starter cable does not
suffice, you can have cables made in the required
length by any certified cable manufacturer using
the following parts.

Snap link: Snap link with safety lock gate, 1 ton
load-carrying capacity, quality grade 8 (for
example: SOCS 6-8)
Stud: Aeroquip 5013 Series L Double Stud Fitting
(ISO 9788)

HK Audio®item number: 193195

Cable: Galvanized steel-wire cable, DIN 3060, Ø 6
mm, 1770 N/mm 2, sZ 6 x 19 + FE, calculated
breaking strength: 22.8 kN; minimum breaking
strength: 19.6 kN

2.5 Maximum Number of Flown CT 112/ CT 115
Enclosures

Mount no more than one CT 112 or CT 115
enclosure using this system. This applies to the
speaker in both vertical and horizontal array.

Caution: Flying more than one CT 112 / 115
cabinet in stacked array voids the operating
license!

2.6 Structural Modifications of ConTour Series™

Rigging Hardware

No structural modifications may be made without
the manufacturer’s consent. This also applies to
welding work performed on supporting parts.
Structural alterations require the manufacturer’s
written approval. Use original replacement and
wearing parts only.

2.7 Original HK AUDIO®Accessories:
