INSTALLATION NOTE: MOUNTING TABS
For each attachment screw, first turn one half-
turn counterclockwise to release the mounting
tab from its guide.
Step 6: Connect an Auxiliary
Support Line (Figure 18)
Note the support ring on the back of the speak-
er.The ring allows for connection to a inde-
pendent and secure anchor point. Construction
codes often require the use of this secondary
support point.
Step 7: Adjust Tap Selector
(Figure 19)
The tap selector switch is located on the front
baffle.Adjust the speaker to the appropriate tap
setting before installing the grille. In some
70V/100V constant voltage installations it is
advisable to leave the grilles off if final speaker
audio level balance adjustments are to be made
later.After the levels are adjusted the grilles can
then be installed.

Step 8: Attach the Grille (Figure 20)
INSTALLATION NOTE:
GRILLE SAFETY FEATURE
EVID grilles features a unique safety tether to
prevent the grille from falling if the grille is
removed or comes loose after installation.
First, install the grille’s safety tether by push-
ing the grille fastener into the hole in the front
of the baffle (see Figure 20). Second, press the
grille into place until the front of the grille is
flush with the rim of the baffle. Make sure the
grille is securely seated to prevent it from
vibrating loose.
If you need to remove the grille, the easiest
way is to insert two bent paper clips or other
pointed objects into holes in the grille, then
apply slow even pressure to pull down on the
grille until that section of the grille comes out
slightly. Continue the same procedure around
the perimeter of the grille, loosening a portion at
a time until the grille is removed.
