Series loudspeakers utilizing M10 attachment points will be
maintained with a safety factor of 5:1, provided no more than 470lbs/213kg from 2 points equally loaded, or no
more than 235lbs/106kg maximum from a single suspension point, is utilized in conjunction with industry
recognized safe rigging practices and the guidelines established within this manual.

WARNING
Suspension of JBL loudspeakers must employ a minimum of two attachment points. When “bridling” a JBL
loudspeaker system, two legs of equal length must be used. The rear attachment points are pull-back points and
are intended only for use in adjusting the down-angle of the speaker enclosure. Only the top and bottom
attachment points are intended for use as suspension points.
