Mounting

 

Before mounting the  product, read and follow the safety recommendations indicated in 
the 

Safety Notes

 

 

Orientation 

The  SlimBANK T18  USB  may be mounted in any position; however, make sure 
adequate ventilation is provided around the product. 

 

 

Rigging 

 

Before deciding on a location for the product, always make sure there is easy 
access to the product for maintenance and programming purposes. 

 

Make sure that the structure onto which you are mounting the product can support 
the product’s weight. See the 

Technical Specifications

 for weight information. 

 

When mounting the product overhead, always use a safety cable. Mount the 
product securely to a rigging point, whether an elevated platform or a truss. 

 

When rigging the product onto a truss, use a mounting clamp of appropriate weight 
capacity. 

 

When power linking multiple products, mount the products close enough for power 
linking cables to reach. 

 

The bracket adjustment knobs allow for directional adjustment when aiming the 
product to the desired angle. Only loosen or tighten the bracket knobs manually. 
Using tools could damage the knobs.
