ELECTRO-VOICE ® X-Line TM Rigging Manual
Figure 10:
Flying with Front Dollies
The two boxes must be held parallel during the installation of the rigging hinge. If there is a slight
vertical misalignment that causes the hinge to bind during installation, either the suspended box
or the box on the dolly may be manually lifted to facilitate the hinge installation. Once both rear
hinges are secured, the array is lifted until the box on the Front Dolly is no longer contacting the
ground.
The Front Dolly is then removed from the bottom box. Do not attach the front Xvsl rigging straps
yet on the bottom box. The array is then raised and another box on a Front Dolly is rolled into
position from behind the array. The two Xvhl linking hinges are then simultaneously installed in the
rigging on the suspended box and the box on the dolly as previously described.

lift the array. Remove the dolly.
Step 4: Roll the next box on a front
dolly into position. Lower the array
