2. Important safety instructions and precautions _____________________   

 
 

Read this manual 
 
1. 

Follow all safety instructions as well as the warning messages. 

2. 

Never incorporate equipment or accessories not approved by Alcons Audio. 

3. 

Read all the related product information before using the system. 

4. 

Work with qualified personnel for rigging the system. 

5. 

Installation should only be carried out by qualified personnel who are familiar with the rigging techniques and safety recommendations stated in this 
manual. 

6. 

Ensure health and safety during installation and setup. 

7. 

All persons must wear protective headgear and footwear at all times. Under no circumstances personnel is allowed to climb into a loudspeaker assembly. 

8. 

Respect the Working Load Limit (WLL) of third party equipment. 

9. 

Alcons Audio is not responsible for any rigging equipment and accessories provided by third party manufacturers. Verify that the Working Load Limit 
(WLL) of the suspension points, chain hoists and all additional hardware rigging accessories is respected. 

10. 

Respect the maximum configurations and the recommended safety level. 

11. 

For safety issue, respect the maximum configurations outlined in this manual. To check the conformity of any configuration in regards with the safety level 
recommended by Alcons Audio. 

12. 

Be cautious when flying a loudspeaker array. Always verify that no one is standing underneath the loudspeaker array when it is being raised or lowered. 
As the array is being raised, check each individual element to make sure that it is securely fastened to the adjacent element. 

13. 

Never leave the array unattended during the installation process. As a general rule Alcons Audio recommends the use of safety slings at all times. 

14. 

Ensure that the surface is suitable for ground-stacking a loudspeaker array. 

15. 

Do not stack the loudspeaker array on unstable ground or surface. If the array is stacked on a structure, platform, or stage, 

 

always check that the latter can support the total weight of the array. As a general rule, Alcons Audio recommends the use of safety straps at all times. 

16. 

When a loudspeaker assembly is deployed in an open air environment, wind can produce dynamic stress to the rigging components and suspension 
points. If the wind force exceeds 6 Beaufort scale, lower down and/or secure the loudspeaker array. 

 
 
 

 

  

The exclamation point within a triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating 

instructions in the literature accompanying the product.
