SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Please Read Carefully Before Installing or Operating
• Read all instructions carefully

• Assure that speaker is securely mounted
Hearing Damage
CAUTION: All professional loudspeaker systems are capable of generating very high sound pressure 
levels. Use care with placement and operation to avoid exposure to excessive levels that can cause 
permanent hearing damage.
SUSPENSION & MOUNTING
Suspension or "flying" speaker systems requires training and expertise. Improper rigging of a flying 
speaker may result in injury, death, equipment damage, and legal liability. Installation 
must be carried
out by fully qualified installers, in accordance with all required safety codes and standards at the place of 
installation.
A
5:1 design factor is a generally accepted minimum standard. However, legal requirements for overhead
suspension vary by municipality, please consult your local safety standards office before installing any 
product. We also recommend that you thoroughly check any laws and bylaws prior to installation.
Loudspeakers flown in theatres, nightclubs, conference centers or other places of work and 
entertainment must be provided with an independent, correctly rated and securely attached secondary 
safety — in addition to the principle suspension point(s). This secondary safety must prevent the 
loudspeaker from dropping more than (6") should the principle suspension device fail. If you lack the 
skills, training, and proper ancillary equipment to fly a speaker system do not attempt to do so.
For additional information regarding the suspension of loudspeakers or to purchase rigging materials 
please contact our friends at ATM Group, Inc., 21000 S. Wilmington Avenue, Carson, CA 90810.
