Preparation
5040 Loudspeaker Installation
The 5040 loudspeakers are intended to be floor mounted only. We
recommend you attach the support base during the unpacking process as
in the diagram above, to avoid damage to the loudspeaker. However, you
may attach it after the loudspeaker is unpacked, but you should protect
the loudspeaker from damage by placing it on a soft cloth or similar. You
must also take care to avoid damaging the drive units.
Lift the speakers from the cartons by holding the cabinets.
Do not touch the driver units or use the protective bags to
lift them. The 5040 loudspeakers are heavy - get assistance
to lift them.
Thread the spikes fitted with locking nuts half way into the base and return
the loudspeaker to the upright position (If you have a wood or stone floor
push a spike cover over each spike before turning the speaker upright).
When the speaker is the right way up, insert the Allen key into each rear
spike from the top and adjust all the spikes in and out until the loudspeaker
is level and stable.
Spikes are sharp. Exercise care! Never place a spiked
loudspeaker where it can cause damage!
Always move your loudspeakers by lifting them - never
drag them!
