concerning this product.
•
Make sure you fully understand the safety issues mentioned.
•
Read all cautions present on the product itself.
•
Read all the related product information before using the
system.
•
Work with qualified personnel only.
•
Rigging, hoisting and flying equipment is never free of
potential hazards. You cannot rule out human error while
gravity, wind and electrical forces do their regular job.
Therefore: Always use your common sense!
Personal safety
Ensure health and safety during installation and setup. In order to
prevent accidents when deploying loudspeakers on the ground or
when flown, please take note of the following:
•
The system may not be used for other purposes than it is
meant for.
•
All system components must be inspected before use, in
order to detect any possible defects.
•
Take into account the wind effects on dynamic load. When a
loudspeaker assembly is deployed in an open air
environment, wind can produce dynamic stress to the rigging
components and suspension points. If the wind force
exceeds 6 Beaufort scale, lower down and/or secure the
loudspeaker array.
•
Be cautious when flying a loudspeaker array. Always verify
that no one is standing underneath the loudspeaker array
when it is being raised or lowered.
•
As the array is being raised, check each individual element to
make sure that it is securely fastened to the adjacent element.
•
Never leave the array unattended during the installation
process. As a general rule Quint Audio advises the use of
safety slings at all times.
•
Do not place the product on an unstable cart, stand, tripod,
bracket, or table. The product may fall and be seriously
damaged and may cause serious human injury.
•
Loudspeakers and amplifiers work with potentially harmful
voltages. Avoid any direct contact with the human body.
Respect electrical safety warnings at all times.
•
Use certified connectors and cables. All cables must be
electrically safe (according to NEN1010) and routed so that
there is no direct walking on and/or driving over it nor objects
are placed on top of them in any way it might damage the
cable. Make sure that the cables and connectors are
used stress free.
