Fitting An Aircraft Cable Mount Set - Acclaim Lighting Unity SNS2019 User Manual

F I TTING AN AI R CR A F T C ABL E MO U NT S E T
IMPORTANT: The aircraft cable mount requires a solid, weight-bearing horizontal
mounting surface. You also need to source mounting hardware appropriate to the
mounting surface, rated to safely hold the weight of the total fixture plus safety
factor. If the power/control cord will be fed up through the top bracket, a hole will
also need to be made through the mounting surface to accommodate the cord.
TO FIT AN AIRCR A FT C ABLE MOUN T SET
1 Remove the existing yoke from the Unity fixture:
• Lay down a protective surface, such as a thick
blanket or the foam insert from the Unity box,
and place the Unity fixture face down on the
surface.
• Use a 5/16" (8mm) Allen (hex) wrench to
remove the large pivot bolt from each side of
the yoke.
• Gently pull the arms of the yoke out from the
fixture body so that the pivot points disengage
- thus freeing the yoke from the fixture body.
2 Transfer the two pivot cups from the original yoke
to the new cable mount yoke:
• Use a #2 Phillips driver to remove the three
screws holding each pivot cup to the arms of
the original yoke.
• Using the removed screws, attach each pivot
cup to the outside of the arms of the new cable
mount yoke.
3 Release the cover plate from the top bracket of the
new mount:
• Use a 1/8" (3mm) Allen (hex) wrench to remove
the two small bolts that secure the cover plate
to the top bracket.
• Slide the cover plate down the suspension
cable.
