WALL/CEILING MOUNTING
Galaxy Audio yoke brackets can be used for permanently
mounting HOT SPOT, MICRO SPOT, and CHAMELEON
loudspeakers to walls and ceilings. The mounting angle can be
adjusted by simply loosening the wing screws at either end of the
yoke and by loosening the bolt where the yoke mounts to the wall
plate. These brackets should be used only on a flat, secure, and
stable surface.
PRECAUTIONS:
Whenever an object is affixed to a wall or ceiling, you must take
special care to mount it securely to prevent it from falling and
causing damage or injury.
MOUNTING SURFACES:
Carefully examine the composition,
construction and strength of the surface you are mounting to. Be
sure to provide adequate reinforcement should you deem it
necessary. You must also consider what type of hardware and
what type of mounting techniques are appropriate for each
mounting surface.
FASTENERS:
Attaching the bracket requires fasteners selected
for the strength and composition of the mounting surfaces
involved. Whatever fastener is selected, it should be no smaller
than a #8 screw or 1/4" bolt. When drilling pilot holes be sure that
the holes are smaller than the core diameter of the screw. Always
use fasteners in all mounting holes and avoid over tightening, as
this can weaken the mounting surface, damage the fasteners, and
make the installation much less secure.
SECONDARY SUPPORT:
As we recommend the use of a
secondary support for added safety, each yoke bracket is
equipped with a safety cable. When properly installed it provides
secondary support without inhibiting the adjustment of the bracket,
and can be easily hidden out of sight.
