TMK Series
The Electro-Voice® TMK Truss Mount Kits are acces-
sories that are designed to suspend Electro-Voice loud-
speakers to a truss. The bracket allows the speaker to
be rotated in both the horizontal and vertical planes for
maximum versatility (see Figure 1). There are different
suspension kits, depending on the loudspeaker that is
being suspended, as shown in the table below:

Assembling TCA-1 to VSA-1 (all Speakers)
Remove the short 1/2" bolt and washer from TCA-1.
The short bolt and washer are not needed for installa-
tion. Mount the TCA-1 to VSA-1 in the desired horizon-
tal position, using the long 1/2" bolt, flat washer, and
lockwasher (see Figure 2).
WARNING: Suspending any object is potentially danger-
ous and should only be attempted by individuals who
have a thorough knowledge of the techniques and regula-
tions of rigging objects overhead. Electro-Voice® strongly
recommends that all speakers be suspended taking into
account all current national, federal, state and local regu-
lations. It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that all speak-
ers are safely installed in accordance with all such regulations. When
speakers are suspended, Electro-Voice® strongly recommends that
the system be inspected at least once a year. If any sign of weakness
or damage is detected, remedial action should be taken immediately.
The user is responsible for making sure that the truss, and any addi-
tional hardware used, is capable of supporting the loudspeaker. Any
hardware used to suspend a loudspeaker that is not associated with
Electro-Voice® is the responsibility of others.
