than that indicated in this guide is considered to be improper use. Such use can be very
dangerous: overloading, modifying, damaging, or assembling in a manner other than that
clearly stated in the Operation will compromise safety. The component parts of any Tannoy
Professional hardware device must only be assembled using the accessory kits supplied and

methods of assembly may result in an unsafe hardware system by reducing the load safety
factor. Welding, or any other method of permanently xing hardware components together or to
the integral xing points in the cabinet, should never be used.
Whenever a Tannoy Professional loudspeaker is xed to a surface using a Tannoy Professional
hardware device, the installer must ensure that the surface is capable of safely and securely
supporting the load. The hardware employed must be safely, and securely attached both to
the loudspeaker and also to the surface in question, in accordance with the Operation Manual,
using only the xing holes provided as standard and covered in the manual. Secure xings
to the building structure are vital. Seek help from architects, structural engineers or other
specialists if in any doubt. All loudspeakers own in theatres, nightclubs, conference centres
or other places of work and entertainment must be provided with an independent, correctly
rated and securely attached secondary safety restraint in addition to the principal hardware
device. This secondary safety restraint must prevent the loudspeaker from dropping more
than 150 mm (6”) should the principal hardware device fail.
