When initially ratcheting a column of speakers it is good to bear in mind the expected angle
of inclination so as to avoid ending up with too much of the strap left on the ratchet. This is
important because the ratchet can only take three complete turns before it releases itself.
It is recommended that you connect the hook to the bottom box, take up the slack in the
strap, and then fit the biscuits working up from the bottom. Initially when the system is hung
and the straps have been tightened just enough for the backs of the cabinets to touch, the
top box should point upwards as shown in Figure 7. When you increase the tension on the
strap the whole column will tilt around the centre of gravity of the column.
The system has been designed around an optimum setting so you must be aware that at
some point the backs of the bottom rows of cabinets will meet and limit any further
adjustment. To stop this you could try one or more of the following:
♦
Reduce the number of rows of cabinets.
♦
Use a smaller amount of horizontal splay.
♦
Use a smaller amount of vertical kelp.
