Clamping to a truss
1. Obtain a rigging clamp and check that
it is undamaged and approved for the
weight it will support. Check that the
structure that will be used for
suspension can bear at least 10 times
the weight of all installed products,
clamps, cables, auxiliary equipment,
etc.
2. Bolt the clamp securely through the
rigging clamp attachment point (see
see Figure 1 on page 9) with a
minimum grade 8.8 steel M12 bolt and
lock nut.
3. Block access under the work area.
Working from a stable platform, fasten
the product to the truss with the rigging clamp.
4. Install a safety wire that is approved as a safety attachment for the
weight of the product by attaching it to the safety wire attachment point
(see Figure 1 on page 9) and a secure anchoring point so that the
safety attachment will catch the product if the primary attachment fails.
5. Check that the product is securely and safely installed.
