1. Rigging and Safety Procedures
The Tannoy Professional hardware covered in this guide has been designed to offer a quick, simple, cost
effective and secure solution for mounting specific Tannoy Professional loudspeakers. This hardware
has been designed and manufactured with a high safety load factor for its specific role. To ensure the
safest possible use of the hardware covered in this guide, it must be assembled in strict accordance
with the instructions specified.
The information in this instruction guide relating to the assembly and the safe use of these accessories
must be understood and followed. The installation of Tannoy Professional loudspeakers - using the
dedicated hardware - should be carried out only by fully qualified installers, in accordance with all the
required safety codes and standards that apply at the place of installation.
WARNING: As the legal requirements for mounting, suspending, hanging, flying or rigging equipment
change from country to country, please consult your local safety standards office before installing any
product. We also recommend that you thoroughly check any laws and bylaws prior to installation. Tannoy
Professional hardware has been designed for use with specific Tannoy Professional loudspeakers, and
is not designed or intended for use with any other Tannoy Professional products, or any other devices.
Using Tannoy Professional hardware for any purpose other than that indicated in this guide is considered
to be improper use. Such use can be very dangerous: overloading, modifying, damaging, or assembling
in a manner other than that clearly stated in the Operation Manual will compromise safety.
The component parts of any Tannoy Professional hardware device must only be assembled using the
accessory kits supplied and in strict compliance with the Operation Manual. The use of other accessories
or non-approved methods of assembly may result in an unsafe hardware system by reducing the load
safety factor. Welding, or any other method of permanently fixing hardware components together or to
the integral fixing points in the cabinet, should never be used.
Whenever a Tannoy Professional loudspeaker is fixed to a surface using a Tannoy Professional hardware
device, the installer must ensure that the surface is capable of safely and securely supporting the load.
The hardware employed must be safely, and securely attached both to the loudspeaker and also to the
surface in question, in accordance with the Operation Manual, using only the fixing holes provided as
standard and covered in the manual. Secure fixings to the building structure are vital. Seek help from
architects, structural engineers or other specialists if in any doubt.
