Rigging Manual

Initially, the rear rigging will be slack as the array is lifted. As more enclosures are suspended, the

rear swing arms in the top enclosures will go into tension. If it is desired to lock the enclosures at

their vertical splay angles when in compression as well as in tension, the lifting should be paused

so that the second quick-release pin can be installed in the hole immediately at the end of the

swing arm. For most arrays, the second pin is not necessary. Second pins are usually only

necessary when a pull back is used, or when arrays with large arcs are assembled. (See Section

1.2 of this manual for a detailed discussion of when to use a second pin.) If the user does not

want to use a second pin, this step can be eliminated. Secure any unused pins into the swing-arm

transport hole in the frame. To disassemble the array, reverse the steps outlined in this section.

THE ENCLOSURES MUST BE BROUGHT OUT OF COMPRESSION AND THE

SECOND LOCKING PIN REMOVED BEFORE THE ARRAY IS LOWERED TO

THE GROUND FOR DISASSEMBLY.
