INSTALLATION NOTE: MOUNTING TABS
For each attachment screw, first turn one half-
turn counterclockwise to release the mount-
ing tab from its guide.
Step 6: Connect an Auxiliary
Support Line (Figure 16)
Note the support ring on the back of the
speaker. The ring allows for connection to a
independent and secure anchor point.
Construction codes often require the use of
this secondary support point.
Step 7: Adjust Tap Selector
(Figure 17)
The tap selector switch is located on the front
baffle. Adjust the speaker to the appropriate
tap setting before installing the grille. In some
70V/100V constant voltage installations it is
advisable to leave the grilles off if final speak-
er audio level balance adjustments are to be
made later. After the levels are adjusted the
grilles can then be installed.

In addition to the 8-ohm setting, the power

Step 8: Attach the Grille (Figure 18)
INSTALLATION NOTE:
GRILLE SAFETY FEATURE
EVID grilles features a unique safety tether to
prevent the grille from falling if the grille is
removed or comes loose after installation.
First, install the grille’s safety tether by
pushing the grille fastener into the hole in the
front of the baffle (see Figure 18). Second,
press the grille into place until the front of the
grille is flush with the rim of the baffle. Make
sure the grille is securely seated to prevent it
from vibrating loose.
If you need to remove the grille, the easiest
way is to insert two bent paper clips or other
pointed objects into holes in the grille, then
apply slow even pressure to pull down on the
grille until that section of the grille comes out
slightly. Continue the same procedure around
the perimeter of the grille, loosening a portion
at a time until the grille is removed.
