Hardware for Flying/Rigging the SP®2P
Eyebolts or bracket bolts should be M8 metric thread, 1.25 mm per thread.
Eyebolts and bracket bolts must conform to certain minimum strength criteria for safety reasons.
Unspecified eyebolts found at local hardware stores are not strong enough to maintain safety for overhead flying
or rigging. Use only forged steel shoulder machinery eyebolts designed for rigging use, which adhere to the stat-
ed standards as outlined below.
Hardware Specifications
Forged shoulder machinery eyebolts should be an M8 size, 1.25 mm per thread, and must conform to DIN 580
or ASTM A489, for Germany, BGV-C1 is the relevant standard. Minimum shank length should be 20 mm. The
eyebolts should be rated for a minimum of 450 lbs straight pull working load
Bolts used on custom mounting brackets must be certified to be a metric grade 8.8 or better.
If there are any questions regarding the proper hardware or practices for safe flying or rigging of the Peavey
SP®2P, contact a certified structural engineer, or consult with those local rigging companies who have trained
and certified personnel.
Operation
Connecting AC Power To The SP®2P
The SP®2P comes with an 6-foot IEC connection AC power cord. If you are using an extension cord or power
strip with this powered speaker, make sure it is of good quality and of a sufficient current capacity to maintain
safety and maximize the power output capability of the SP®2P. For maximum undistorted output, do not con-
nect any other device to the same extension cord that the SP®2P is connected to. Do not exceed the rated current
capacity of the extension cord with the sum total of all units connected to it.
When first plugging in the AC cord, make sure the power switch is in the Off position, and then turn it On only
once the power cord has been connected. Built-in muting will engage when the proper sequence of steps is tak-
en.
Special Note for Permanent Installation
When installing the SP®2P, AC power runs will be used and a certified electrician should be consulted to be
sure that all AC wiring complies with local codes and regulations. It is also advisable to use a cable clip properly
affixed to the cabinet to strain relief the IEC power cord connected to the amplifier module at (3) so the power
cord cannot be pulled out or vibrate loose.
