Installation and Operation Manual
R2-MAX INSTALLATION
WARNING:
Loudspeakers are heavy. To prevent
injury or damage, they should be supported during
the mounting process until the connection is secure.
q
The R2-MAX loudspeaker is shipped with the yoke
attached. If it is necessary to position the yoke differently,
please remove the mounting hardware and reserve the
hardware for repositioning. Attach the R2 loudspeaker
to the yoke. See
Figure 4a.
Determine and orient the
loudspeaker correctly for the coverage desired for your
application. Mount the loudspeaker to the yoke with the
rubber washers between the yoke and enclosure and
attach as shown. This is intentionally a tight fit to maintain
weather resistance. Tighten bolts to finger tight (enough to
hold the loudspeaker in position).

Attach the short flat end of the contour strap to the
mounting point located at the back/center of the enclosure
bell using the bolt, rubber washer, flat washer, and lock
washer supplied in the mounting point. Make sure that
the rubber washer is between the contour strap and the
enclosure. See
Figure 4b.
Leave the other end (the long
flat end) of the contour strap temporarily unattached.
Eventually this will be attached to the mounting point
below where the yoke crossbar is positioned when the
loudspeaker is mounted and aimed properly.
