INSTALLING THE R1 MOUNTING YOKE
CAUTION:
The R1 Mounting Yoke is specifically designed to provide a high degree of safety in R1
installations. It is highly recommended for mounting an R1. Other mounting methods should be carefully
considered so that undue strain and possible failure of the mounting points does not occur (See SECTION
8.1.1)
CAUTION:
In order to maintain the weather-resistant integrity of an R1, all five rubber washers supplied
with the R1 mounting point hardware must be used and be flush against the enclosure when the R1 is
mounted.
The yoke has three 17/32 in. (13.5 mm) holes in the crossbar. There is a fourth hole on one of the legs near the
crossbar. These holes are intended for attachment of the yoke to the structure to which the R1 is to be
mounted. The hardware used for the attachment must be load-rated for the intended purpose. Also insure that
the structure you are attaching to is capable of supporting the loudspeaker and yoke assembly. This must
include any torque load that may be applied to the structure as a result of the loudspeaker/yoke position and
aiming angle. For outdoor installations wind loading must also be taken into account. It is recommended that a
qualified and licensed structural engineer approve the mounting design.
