WARNING
Safety Instructions for Suspending the Speakers
Suspended loads pose a safety risk.
•
Have all installation works including suspension as well as wall or ceiling mount performed
by qualified event technicians or appropriately trained persons.
•
Only qualified technicians are permitted to perform the installation steps. Be sure to use
personal protective equipment at all times.
•
Be sure to have all works carried out by untrained hands checked and approved by a qual-
ified expert.
•
The technicians installing the speaker on site are responsible for and guarantee safe setup
and use.
•
Installing and dismounting the speaker system requires at least two persons and a suitable
lift for carrying and handling.
•
Before installing, check the stability, strength, and materials of walls, ceilings, and board-
ing. For example, always use appropriate wall anchors for panels and check for sufficient
strength.
•
Note that the suspension points on the hall ceiling (i.e. shackles, attachment points, or
chain hoists) must comply with the DGUV regulations 17 (BGV C1) or similar locally appli-
cable accident-control standards. The maximum load must have been certified by an
authorized expert.
•
Be sure to tighten all bolts and screws to the specified torque.
•
Unless otherwise stated, use only KLING & FREITAG original parts for mounting the speak-
ers. 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.
