Installation
The XRT30 High Frequency Column Section requires two
or more persons to safely handle the Column during as-
sembly and placement. Follow the instructions below for
unpacking and assembly. It is recommended that the Pro-
fessionals at your McIntosh Dealer, who are skilled in all
aspects of installation and operation, install the XRT30
Loudspeaker System and any associated audio equipment.
Unpacking the High Frequency Column

ton. Refer to figure 10.
2. Lift off the top of the
shipping carton and set
it aside.
3. Lift up on the rear of
the Column Loud-

packing material at
both ends. Place the entire assembly (Column, Loud-

ton bottom. Take the two center pieces of the just re-
