The terms

are used throughout this manual to alert the reader to

These terms are defined below:
IMPORTANT:
describes
an operating condition or user action that may expose the equipment or
user to potential damage or danger.
CAUTION: describes an operating condition or user action that will likely cause damage to the

DANGER: The loudspeakers described in this manual are designed and intended to be
‘flown,’ mounted, or suspended for maximum acoustical performance using a variety of
rigging hardware, means, and methods. Installation of the loudspeakers should only be
performed by trained and qualified personnel. It is strongly recommended that a licensed
and certified professional structural engineer approve the mounting design. Severe injury
and/or loss of life may occur if these products are improperly installed.
DANGER: R-Series rigging fittings are rated at a Working Load Limit (WLL) of 100 lbs
(45.4kg) with a 10:1 safety margin. No single rigging fitting should ever be subjected to a load
that is greater than this stated limit. Failure to heed this warning could result in severe injury
and/or loss of life.
IMPORTANT:
Refer to the sections on installation and connections later in this manual for additional
information on rigging and electrical safety.
IMPORTANT:
The stainless steel mounting bolts that come installed in each enclosure must either
be used to mount the Accessory Mounting Yoke or they must be kept in place to seal the enclosure
from air leaks. If the rigging fittings do not remain sealed, air leaks will occur in the enclosure that
will compromise the loudspeaker’s weather-resistance and its low frequency performance.
