Installing on a rigging truss or similar structure
You can suspend an FS16Z fixture from a rigging truss or pipe using either the fixture's
adjustable Tilt Brackets or the Clamp Brackets that are available from GLP as optional
accessories for the FS16Z. It is also possible to directly fix rigging clamps to the rear
mountings on the fixture without attaching either of the brackets.
If you are going to install the fixture hanging underneath a horizontal rigging truss or
pipe, you can fasten it to the truss using G-clamps. If you are going to install the fixture
in any other orientation (such as clamped above the truss), you must use half-coupler
clamps that completely surround the truss chord or pipe.

supplied with the fixture:

Brackets using two M12 bolts, grade 8.8 steel or better, that pass through the holes
arrowed in Figure 7.
