Rigging Hardware & Accessories
Your G-Series loudspeakers have a range of integral rigging hardware to enable usage in a wide variety of ways.
All G-Series fullrange enclosures contain M10 threaded fixing points around the enclosure, to enable suspension using
forged shoulder eyebolts
(minimum thread length 20mm). These fixings allow suspension in any orientation, with the rear
point being used for pull-back to obtain the desired rigging angle.
G-Series products also contain rear mounting points for use with OmniMount
TM
or Powerdrive
TM
installation hardware.

With any suspension method, a second anchor point should be used as a safety.
Under no circumstances should the mounting points of one enclosure be used to suspend another enclosure
below it. Global 9 are in no way responsible for the failure of incorrectly rigged systems. This information
relates specifically to the rigging techniques for the G-Series fullrange enclosures only. If you are in any
doubt about safe practices for rigging loudspeakers, please contact your local Global 9 dealer who will be
able to advise you.
Permanent Installations
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 your Global 9 dealer who will be able to refer you to
an experienced rigging company. A reputable rigging organisation should also be able to advise on legislation regarding safety
factors for suspended systems of this type.
