LU43P-LU53P INSTALLATION
Placement & Mounting Speakers
The DUAL LU43 and LU53 have been tested for
environmental usage and are weather resistant, but not
waterproof. Occasional moisture will not affect performance.
The speakers should be allowed to ventilate and dry after
water exposure.
The speakers can be placed permanently outdoors for year-
round enjoyment. To maximize speaker life, position in areas
protected from the elements, such as the underside of eaves
and overhangs. Popular locations include decks, gazebos,
porches, atriums, garages, and covered spa areas.
For temporary placement, remove the speaker from the
mounting brackets and replace the thumb screws to maintain
stability if placing the speakers on end.
Both the LU43 and LU53 speakers have a DUAL logo that can
be rotated. The logo is located on the face of the grille in the
event a vertical installation is needed. The logo is spring
loaded. Use gentle force when adjusting the logo to a new
orientation. To rotate the logo, elevate two ends of the logo
equally by placing your nail under and lifting lightly. While
the logo is elevated, turn the logo to the desired orientation
and release.
For ease of installation, the DUAL LU43 and LU53 include an
easily removable mounting bracket. Once mounted, the
bracket allows the speaker to be pivoted to its ideal location.
The included thumb screws knobs will hold the selected
speaker position when properly tightened. Avoid over
tightening the knob. Before attempting the installation,
carefully evaluate the mounting surface, making sure that its
composition and construction are strong enough to support
the load safely. If you are unsure about the type of mounting
hardware for your installation, consult a professional
contractor or a knowledgeable hardware store. The anchors
and screws to attach the speakers are not included and must
be purchased separately. The hardened steel brackets are
suitable only for attaching the speaker to walls or ceilings
constructed of solid wood, brickwork, concrete, hollow
buildings block or wood studs.
Do not mount the bracket to non-reinforced plaster sheetrock
(gypsum board). Once the bracket is secure, reattach the
speaker using the thumb screws included.
