VHD5 Rigging Manual · Safety Warning
Safety Warning
• The VHD5 rigging components (Flybar, Integral Flyware, Locking pins) must only be used with the matching
KV2 Audio VHD5 loudspeakers VHD5.0, VHD8.10, VHD5.1.
• Installation and deployment must be conducted by Certified and authorized personnel following the local OH&S standards
in place.
• The person responsible for deploying the system must ensure that the hanging points are suitably rated for their intended
use.
• KV2 Audio, as such is not responsible for the safety of any suspension, flying over-head of all specific KV2 Audio Loudspeaker
products, or Rigging configurations as executed in practice by users.
• It is expressly the sole responsibility of the user to ensure that at all times any KV2 Audio product or system is suspended
and rigged in accordance with current International and local regulations.
• All non KV2 Audio products such as hoists, clamps, wires, truss, supports used, or required to suspend KV2 Audio Loudspeaker
systems are the sole responsibility of the user.
Preparation
Check the proposed system placement and flying plan with the EASE Focus aiming and modelling program and print out
the simulations for each system hanging point.
Utilising this plot, the riggers will be able to accurately set up the hanging points and chain motors in the correct positions.
The working load limit (WLL) of individual chain motors and their hanging points has to be sufficient
to carry the total system weight, including cabling, flyware and any accessories.
It is possible that when two chain motors are being used to hang a system, that they might not always
be synchronised. For this reason, both of the hanging points must be capable of carrying the total
system weight independently.
System Inspection
All system components must be examined for faults prior to being deployed. This includes the loudspeaker connectors
and in particular the internal cabinet rigging components.
The flybar, chains and clips must also be inspected, and cleared of any faults.
Any damaged components must be replaced immediately or taken out of service. Refer to the
Care and Maintenance
section of this manual. (Page 17).
