MG-1D GRID IN REVERSED FLOWN CONFIGURATION

"Reversed Flown" dilineates that the MG-1D multipurpose grid is oriented with its integral sliding extension frame to
the front. This configuration is used for applications that require the grid to be tilted more severely upward, causing the
array's center of gravity to move forward of the farthest forward pick-up hole on the grid's center bracket. It provides
from -14° to +14° of tilt in 2-degree increments between the grid and the first loudspeaker when using an M1D as
the first element of the array. Reversing the MG-1D grid positions its extension frame in front of the array, providing a
forward pick-up point. Further up tilt can be achieved using the extension frame in the extended position.
Install the M1D grid cam as shown into the MG-1D grid. Please note that the grid side of the M1D grid cam faces the
MG-1D grid. Secure all M1D grid cams with the quick release pins (QRPs). Then install the M1D at the predetermined
angle. The M1D grid cam is only used in transition from the MG-1D multipurpose grid to the first M1D. After this is
complete, use the M1D links with the QRPs to complete the rest of the array as shown.
Maximum Load:
7:1 safety factor: Up to 16 M1Ds or the equivalent
weight of M1Ds and/or M1D-Subs or other products
specified for use with this grid. (496 lbs, 225 kg)
5:1 safety factor: Up to 22 M1Ds or the equivalent
weight of M1Ds and/or M1D-Subs or other products
specified for use with this grid. (682 lbs, 309.2 kg)
WARNING:
a system. Unscrew the entire assembly, including the threaded leg, and remove completely.

M1D Rigging Grids and Accessories
CAUTION:
When flying an
array from the MG-1D grid,
it must always be supported by
at least one pick-up hole from the
main frame's center bracket. The
extension frame may be used as
a secondary pick-up location for
tilting the array or spreading the
load between two points.
NOTE:
If the first element
of the array is an M1D-
Sub, the M1D grid cam needs
to be reversed (grid side facing
the M1D-Sub). In this case, up
tilt from 0° to +14° in 2-degree
increments is possible. Use M1D
links to complete the rest of the
array.
