Be sure to use the supplied accessory screws.
Improper installation of the speakers could cause them to fall and cause damage or injuries to persons nearby. Please
check the following conditions of all the loudspeakers in this series always before they are rigged.
Do not use any other method than the one prescribed in this manual.
The XY Series rigging components must only be used in conjunction with the XY Series loudspeakers.
Ensure and check all the speaker riggings are sufficiently secure to be used before using them. Damaged components
must be withdrawn from use immediately.
Ensure the supplied bolts are used to fix the rigging accessories instead of the pre-inserted screws.
Any installation (permanent or temporary) must be securely attached to the structure of the building using chain, steel
wire or web straps that are certified and load rated for the loudspeaker system.
Consideration must be taken when determining the loading on the structure to include loudspeakers and rigging
hardware, and the appropriate safety factor can then be decided upon. If you are in any doubt whatsoever, please
contact the retailer or dealer from which you purchased this product. A reputable rigging organisation should also be
able to advise on legislation regarding safety factors for suspended systems of this type.
Small parts such as flat washer, spring washer and nut out of the reach of children and infants. If accidentally swallowed,
contact a doctor immediately.
When you use any commercially-available eyebolts, please use the eyebolts
meeting the following size and specification:
NOTE only for XY-3B:
The nuts of the threaded fixing points on XY-3B are structured so that
bolts cannot pass through them. (max threaded length is 15mm.)
Screw the eye bolts into the nuts so that they are engaged within the range of
10 to 15 mm (0.39 to 0.59 in.) and then tighten the nuts with a spanner while
matching the direction of the eye bolts to fix them in place. (Fig. 3-1-1-A)
The safe working load limits of an eyebolt are different depending on an
inclined angle of the wire attached to the eyebolt. If the suspension angle of the
wire attached to the eyebolt is inclined (not vertical) and correctly oriented in
the plane of pull, be sure to read the catalogue of the eye bolt for details of the
safe working load limits depending on the inclined angle. It is generally
recommended that an angle of the wire attached to the eye bolt correctly
oriented in the plane of pull be 45 degrees at maximum. Do not suspend the
eye bolts as shown in the right figure. (Fig. 3-1-1-B)
