Important: Half couplers are generally available in specific
clamping diameters that correspond to the common diameters
of battens and trussing members. WHEN USING THIS TYPE
OF CLAMP IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT THE CLAMP SIZE
CORRESPONDS TO THE DIAMETER OF THE BATTEN, PIPE
OR TRUSS CHORD IN USE.

•
Remove the nut and split locking washer or other hardware from
the connecting bolt of the half coupler, and pass the bolt through
the hole in the mounting yoke.
Note: It is strongly recommended that, when possible, the
loudspeakers be attached to trusses or battens at ground level
and subsequently raised into position.

•
Firmly tighten the nut and lock washer onto the bolt of the
half coupler in such a way as to compress the washer and
lock the clamp into place with respect to the yoke. The tools
necessary will be specified in the product literature provided by
the manufacturer of the third-party clamp.
