    User's Manual SINGLE BAR (ALIGN) 3. Wire Ropes and Chains The loudspeaker systems are suspended from the Single Bar by means of wire ropes or chains.

    User's Manual SINGLE BAR (ALIGN) 5. K&F Curving Hook The Curving Hook is not absolutely essential when suspending several ACCESS Sys- tems one above the other. Its use can, however, simplify the assembly procedure, considerably reducing assembly and dismantling times. The Curving Hook prevents systems suspended one below the other from turning towards each other and ensures that the rear edges of the suspended systems align with each other.
  • Page 10: Rigging Straps

    User's Manual SINGLE BAR ( ALIGN) 6. Rigging Straps The rigging strap serves to align the speaker array vertically, while the angle of array between the speaker systems is determined by the length of the chains which join them. The tension of the strap is set using the ratchet. When securing the straps it must be ensured that the speaker array clears the ground.

    User's Manual SINGLE BAR (ALIGN) To avoid overloading the rigging strap reel the strap should be drawn out manually, in other words the strap end should be pulled so far until only so much strap remains as can be taken up by the rigging strap reel.

    User's Manual SINGLE BAR (ALIGN) 6.2.2 Strap Anchoring for 2 ACCESS Systems The use of the two-piece strap for the suspension of two ACCESS Systems is possible only when the Curving Hook is used. Without the Curving Hook the two ACCESS Systems would slide against one another.
