Dual hoist set up
Using two E6507 1t Shackles connect one Z5155 Q Hoist connector
chain to a hole at the front of the Z5159 Q Flying frame centre bar
and one to a hole at the back of it ( Fig. 10). The vertical aiming of the
array will be set by trimming the hoist motors after the array is fully
assembled.
Note:
For maximum lifting height to be achieved the motors should be
connected directly to the lower O-ring of the Hoist connector chain. The
chain container will rest on the Q Flying frame however this will not affect
the aiming of the array with a dual hoist set up.

Fig. 12: Locking pin release mechanism
Connect two Z5152 Q Front links and two Z5151 Q Splay links to the
Q Flying frame using Z5153 Locking pins 8 mm.
Pressing the button
[B]
releases the locking mechanism allowing
insertion through the array links to the sockets of the frame. Releasing
the button after the pin is fixed in place the locking mechanism will be
locked.
Ensure that the pins are locked. A groove
[G]
(Fig. 12) in the bolt of
the pin indicates that it is properly locked.
In order to have all locking pins at hand to connect the next cabinet the
pins are linked in pairs with steel wire.
WARNING!
The steel wire between the locking pins is not meant to
suspend a cabinet or carry any load. Cabinet weight must
only be carried by the Front and Splay links.

Fig. 14: First cabinet attached
With one person on each side attach the first cabinet. First connect the
Z5152 Q Front link on both sides to the upper sockets in the front grill.
Then connect the two Z5151 Q Splay links using the 8° hole marked
“0 TO FRAME“ to the sockets at the rear of the cabinet.
Attach a cable pick using the bottom row of holes in the centre bar of
the Q Flying frame. With a single hoist set up try to suspend the
speaker cables right below the lifting position of the Q Flying frame to
avoid the aiming of the array being affected by the weight of the
cabling. If this is not possible attach the cable pick directly under the
chain hoist.
