OVERHEAD RIGGING

Important: The installation must be carried out by qualified service personal only. Improper
installation can result in serious injuries and/or damage to property. Overhead rigging requires
extensive experience! Working load limits should be respected, certified installation materials
should be used, the installed device should be inspected regularly for safety.

Make sure the area below the installation place is free from unwanted persons during rigging, de-rigging
and servicing.

Locate the fixture in a well ventilated spot, far away from any flammable materials and/or liquids. The
fixture must be fixed at least 50cm from surrounding walls.

The device should be installed out of reach of people and outside areas where persons may walk by or be
seated.

Before rigging make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point load of 10times the device’s
weight.

Always use a certified safety cable that can hold 12 times the weight of the device when installing the unit.
This secondary safety attachment should be installed in a way that no part of the installation can drop
more than 20cm if the main attachment fails.

The device should be well fixed; a free-swinging mounting is dangerous and may not be considered!

Don’t cover any ventilation openings as this may result in overheating.

The operator has to make sure that the safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by
an expert before using them for the first time. The installations should be inspected every year by a skilled
person to be sure that safety is still optimal.
CAUTION EYE DAMAGE:
Always position the laser in a way that prevents the
audience from looking directly into the laser beams. The installation should assure that
the beam will not strike the audience.
