• Refer all installation work to the dealer from whom
the speaker was purchased. Installation for flying
requires extensive technical knowledge and
experience. The speaker may fall off if incorrectly
installed, resulting in possible personal injury.
• Flying Precautions
Be sure to follow the instructions below. Otherwise,
the suspension wires or belts may be off or snap
and the speaker may fall off, causing personal
injury.
· Check to confirm that the suspension wires and
belts are strong enough to withstand the speaker
load.
· The connectors of the suspension wires and belts
must be securely linked with those of the speaker.
· All parts and components (such as enclosures,
metal pieces, and screws) must be free from any
deformation, crack, and corrosion.
· Be sure to use screws supplied with the optional
flying hardware when installing the speaker using
such hardware.
• Install the speaker only in a location that can
structurally support the weight of the speaker and
the mounting bracket. Doing otherwise may result
in the speaker falling down and causing personal
injury and/or property damage.
• Since the speaker is designed for in-door use, do
not install it outdoors. If installed outdoors, the aging
of parts causes the speaker to fall off, resulting in
personal injury.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if mishandled, could
result in death or serious personal injury.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if mishandled, could
result in moderate or minor personal injury, and/or property damage.
• Owing to the speaker's size and weight, be sure
that at least two persons are available to install the
speaker. Failure to do so could result in personal
injury.
• Do not use other methods than specified to install
the speaker. Extreme force is applied to the speaker
and it could fall off, possibly resulting in personal
injuries.
• Use nuts and bolts that are appropriate for the
ceiling's structure and composition. Failure to do so
may cause the speaker to fall, resulting in material
damage and possible personal injury.
• Tighten each nut and bolt securely. Ensure that
the bracket has no loose joints after installation
to prevent accidents that could result in personal
injury.
• Do not mount the speaker in locations exposed
to constant vibration. The mounting bracket can
be damaged by excessive vibration, potentially
causing the speaker to fall, which could result in
personal injury.
• Avoid installing the speaker in indoor swimming
facilities that are not well ventilated. In such
locations, the mounting hardware may be vulnerable
to corrosion, eventually allowing the speaker to fall
resulting in personal injury.
