WARNING
Risks imposed by falling or overturning parts
•
Be sure to install, suspend, fasten, and use Kling & Freitag speaker accessories only using
the designated fixtures as specified in this document.
•
Be sure to use only the screws supplied with the speaker for mounting accessories. The
screws are specifically designed for accessory mounting. Be sure to use self-locking screws
no more than five times. Using them more often may result in screws loosening in opera-
tion. If in doubt, use new screws. Never use other types of screws.
•
During installation, be sure to cordon off the installation site to prevent any risks caused
by falling parts.
•
Always make sure that the speakers are sufficiently secured, so they cannot fall over even
when external forces affect the speakers. Before installation, carefully check whether there
are any external factors that may cause the stack to fall over. These include, for example,
moving in operation caused by vibrations, the ground slope or bearing capacity, winds,
and impacts of persons or vehicles. Qualified and appropriately trained installation person-
nel are in charge of evaluating the scenario and performing all required steps (including
statics analysis). Proof of stability must be obtained if and as necessary.
•
Installed systems must not fall over even if they are inclined by 15° in any direction. If this
requirement is not fulfilled, be sure to take appropriate steps. E.g. lashing the
speakers onto a suitable base or fastening them using straps. Never allow intended speaker
tilting. The corresponding feature is simply used to account for unevenness during stability
evaluation.
•
Where the stability of installed systems cannot be proven without additional safety meas-
ures, those systems must be effectively secured against moving, sliding, and tipping to
achieve compliance. For example, secure the system against tipping using water tanks or
floor bolts. Other possible measures include lashing the speakers onto a suitable base or
fastening them using straps.
•
With applications where winds may occur, for example, outdoor events, tradeshows, etc.,
be sure to perform extra stability checks.
•
Be sure to only use original parts supplied. Never use other parts (in particular, parts not
made by KLING & FREITAG).
•
Make sure all fittings used are suitable for the task at hand and meet all relevant safety
requirements.
•
Ensure that all connections are secured against coming loose and that only authorized,
statically tested and correctly sized supports, mounting equipment, wire ropes and chains
are used.
•
Be sure to always visually inspect all safety-related speaker and accessory components be-
fore use. If there are signs of wear, cracks, or deformation, etc., replace the affected parts
immediately. Visual inspection also includes checking all screwed connections of support-
ing components.
•
The information described here does not relieve the user of the duty to follow the given
safety requirements and legal regulations.
