Securing fixtures with a safety cable

In temporary installations, if a fixture can cause injury or damage if it falls you must
secure it with a secondary attachment such as a safety cable that will hold it if the
primary means of attachment fails. The safety cable must be approved for the weight
that it secures. In multiple installations, each fixture must have its own safety cable.
To secure an FS16Z fixture with a safety cable, attach the cable through the hole A in
one of the rear fixing brackets:
1.
Loop a safety cable around a secure anchoring point such as a truss chord or
fixed structure so that it will catch the fixture if a rigging clamp fails. Take up as
much slack as possible in the safety cable (by looping it more than once around
the truss chord, for example).
2.
See Figure 3. Fasten the safety cable to the attachment hole A in one of the
brackets on the back of the fixture. Check that the fixture is now secured.

Attaching mounting brackets to the fixture

A pair of tilt brackets for fastening the fixture to a surface at any angle or placing the
fixture on a horizontal surface is supplied with the FS16Z. Clamp brackets for fastening
rigging clamps to the fixture are available as optional accessories.
To mount either a pair of Clamp Brackets or a pair of Tilt Brackets on the back of a
fixture:
