3 Rigging And Caster Setting
3.1 Before Setting
3.1.1 Guide for safe use
Improper installation of the speakers could cause them to fall and cause
damage or injuries to persons nearby. Please check the following conditions of
all the loudspeakers in this series always before they are rigged.
WARNING:
INTENDED USAGE
Do not use any other method than the one prescribed in this manual.
The XY Series rigging components must only be used in conjunction with the XY
Series loudspeakers.
SAFETY CAUTIONS
Ensure and check all the speaker riggings are sufficiently secure to be used
before using them. Damaged components must be withdrawn from use
immediately. Ensure the supplied bolts are used to fix the rigging accessories
instead of the pre-inserted screws.
EYEBOLT STRENGTH
When you use any commercially-available eyebolts, please use the eyebolts
meeting the following size and specification:
XY-81/101: M8 x 15mm, P=1.25, Safe Working Load limits: 0.785[kN] (80[kg])
and more.
XY-122/152: M10 x 30mm, P=1.5, Safe Working Load limits: 1.47[kN] (150[kg])
and more.
The safe working load limits of an eyebolt are different depending on an
inclined angle of the wire attached to the eyebolt. If the suspension angle of
the wire attached to the eyebolt is inclined (not vertical) and correctly oriented
in the plane of pull, be sure to read the catalogue of the eye bolt for details of
the safe working load limits depending on the inclined angle. It is generally
recommended that an angle of the wire attached to the eye bolt correctly
oriented in the plane of pull be 45 degrees at maximum. Do not suspend the
eye bolts as shown here.
THE SECONDARY SAFETY FEATURE
The secondary safety feature must be used to prevent the speaker from
falling. Eye bolts to be used as secondary safety feature are not included with
the products. When you use any commercially-available eyebolts, the above-
listed safe working load limits and other specifications should be met.
Ensure a wire or a chain to be used as secondary safety feature is securely
suspended vertically from the ceiling or wall.
If such a wire or a chain is suspended from the inclined ceiling or wall, or
it is horizontally suspended, the wire or the chain would not be effective
to prevent an accidental fall.
An appropriate length of wire or chain should be used as second safety
feature. It is generally recommended that the fall prevention wire be 100 mm
longer than the main suspension wire/chain/tool.
If the wire or the chain is too long, it would not be effective enough to
prevent an accidental fall.
