7.  Attach each Hinge to the Hinge Tube by inserting a Quick Release Pin (removed in Step 

2) through both. 

8.  Lift the Array, with the KF740 attached only by its rear Hinges, to a comfortable working 

height for the next step. 

  

NOTE: The following two steps require two people 

 
9.  The first of two people required to complete the attaching process lifts the front of the 

KF740, rotating it on the attached rear Hinges. 

10. The second person slides the KF740’s front Hinges into the suspended KF740’s Hinge 

Tubes.  

 

CAUTION:  When attaching the front Hinges, the normal configuration is tight packing the 
enclosure fronts unless otherwise indicated by Resolution.  

 

NOTE: It will usually be necessary to nudge the KF740 enclosure being attached backwards 
to line up its Hinges with the Hinge Tubes on the suspended enclosure above. 

 

11. Attach each Hinge to the Hinge Tube by inserting a Quick Release Pin (removed in step 

7) through both.  

12.  Repeat Steps 1 to 10 for additional KF740 loudspeakers. 
  

6.5.4 

Setting the Tilt Angle for the Entire Array 

Normally, the easiest method is to use a clinometer, such as a simple, bubble-
type angle finder (pictured). More sophisticated, albeit more expensive, 
electronic clinometers can also be used. 
 
Place the angle finder against one of the rigging tubes on the face of the 
uppermost enclosure in the array that can be physically reached. Adjust the 
angle of the entire array so that the face of this enclosure is set at its 
prescribed aiming angle listed in Resolution.

ADAPTER BARS 

KF740 arrays can be mounted under an array of KF760 or KF761 and above an array of KF730 
or KF737 loudspeakers with specially designed adapter-bars available from EAW. 
 
Consult Resolution when designing a mixed KF array to obtain proper splay angles and hardware 
configurations.   Information on building arrays of KF760 and KF761 loudspeakers can be found 
in the KF760 rigging guide.  Information on building arrays of KF730 and KF737 loudspeakers 
can be found in the KF730/SB730 manual.  These documents along with detailed instructions for 
each adapter bar can be found on the downloads portion of the EAW web site at

6.6.1 

Attaching a KF740 to an AB7674-73 

 
It is recommended to begin the process by attaching the adapter-bar to a KF740 prior to the 
KF760 or KF761.  Follow steps one (1) through five (5) of section 6.5.2 

Attaching a KF740 to the 

Fly-Bar.
