INSTALLATION
Rigging
The installation of the projector has to be built and constructed in a way that it can hold 10 times the weight for 1
hour without any harming deformation.
The installation must always be secured with a secondary safety attachment, e.g. an appropriate catch net. This
secondary safety attachment must be constructed in a way that no part of the installation can fall down if the main
attachment fails.
When rigging, derigging or servicing the fixture staying in the area below the installation place, on bridges, under
high working places and other endangered areas is forbidden.
The operator needs to make sure that safetyrelated and machine technical installations are approved by an expert
before taking into operation for the first time and after changes before taking into operation another time.
The operator needs to make sure that safetyrelated and machine technical installations are approved by an expert
after every four years in the course of an acceptance test.
The operator needs to make sure that safetyrelated and machine technical installations are approved by a skilled
person once a year.
Procedure:
The projector should be installed outside areas where persons may walk by or be seated.
IMPORTANT! OVERHEAD RIGGING REQUIRES EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE, including (but not limited to)
calculating working load limits, installation material being used, and periodic safety inspection of all installation
material and the projector. If you lack these qualifications, do not attempt the installation yourself, but instead use
a professional structural rigger. Improper installation can result in bodily injury and/or damage to property.
The projector needs to be installed out of reach of people.
If the projector shall be lowered from the ceiling or high joists, professional trussing systems need to be used. The
projector must never be fixed swinging freely in the room.
Caution: Projectors may cause severe injuries when crashing down! If you have doubts concerning the safety of a
possible installation, do NOT install the projector!
Before rigging make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point load of 10 times the projector's
weight.
