1.1 Overhead Rigging
This Item must be built in a way that it can hold 10 times more of its weight for 1 hour without
causing any damages.
The installation must be secured with a secondary safety attachment. The safety attachment
has to be constructed in a way that no part of the installation can fall down
When rigging, de-rigging or servicing the fixture staying in the area below the installation
place, on bridges, under high working places and other endangered areas is forbidden.
Before taking the device in operation, the installation must be approved by an expert.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are
approved by a skilled person once a year.
Procedure:
The Device must be installed outside areas where persons may walk by or be seated.
IMPORTANT! OVERHEAD RIGGING REQUIRES EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE, including
(but not limited to) calculating working load limits, installation material being used, and
periodic safety inspection of all installation material and the projector. If you lack these
qualifications, do not attempt the installation yourself, but instead use a professional
structural rigger. Improper installation can result in bodily injury and/or damage to property.
Use only professional trussing systems if the Item shall be lowered from the ceiling or high
joists. Never let the Device swing freely in a room.
Caution: Overhead Items may cause serious injuries when crashing down!! If there is
concern about the safety then DO NOT INSTALL the Device!!!!
DANGER OF FIRE!
When installing the device, make sure there is no highly-inflammable Material (decoration
articles, etc.) within a distance of min. 0.5 m.
Mount the projector with the mounting-bracket to your trussing system using an appropriate
clamp.
For overhead use, always install a safety-rope that can hold at least 12 times the weight of
the fixture. You must only use safety-ropes with quick links with screw cap. Pull the safety-
rope through the hole in the mounting-bracket and over the trussing system or a safe fixation
spot. Insert the end in the quick link and tighten the safety screw.
The maximum drop distance must never exceed 20 cm.
A safety rope which already held the strain of a crash or which is defective must not be used
again.
Adjust the desired inclination-angle via the mounting-bracket and tighten the fixation screws.
DANGER TO LIFE!
Before taking into operation for the first time, the installation has to be approved by an
expert!
