3. Safety�Instructions
3.1 Mounting�the�Speakers�/�Wall�and�Ceiling�Installation
Warning
The speakers may only be mounted by qualified event technicians or personnel which are instructed
by them, adequately. This also applies for wall and ceiling fixations.
The technicians responsible for assembling the speakers on site are responsible for the safe setup and
use of the speakers and guarantee this.
Never use signal cables or power cords for suspending, aligning or securing the systems.
Before carrying through ceiling and wall installations, it is essential to consider the load capacity of
walls, ceilings and panelling as well as the stability and type of the construction. If there is wall pan-
elling, for example, it is then necessary to examine the solidity of the wall and use the appropriate wall
plugs.
Note that the suspension points on the hall ceiling (i.e. shackles, suspension points, or chain points)
must comply with the accident prevention regulation BGV C1 (Event and Production Sites for Stage
Presentations) or comparable applicable national standards, and the total load must be approved by
an authorised expert.
Make sure to comply with the stipulated tightening torques.
If not otherwise stated in this manual, only original KLING & FREITAG parts may be used for mount-
ing the speakers. The use of other parts - in particular parts by other manufacturers - is not permitted
in this case.
Ensure that all installation connections comply with the applicable safety guidelines and that the size
and strength are sufficient.
Ensure that all connections are secured against coming loose and that only authorized, statically tested
and correctly sized supports, mounting equipment, wire ropes and chains are used.
As a basic principle, you must visually inspect all safety-relevant components of the speaker and the
accessory before every use. If there are signs of wear, cracks, or deformation, then you must replace
the parts immediately. The visual inspection also includes checking the screwed connections on sup-
porting elements.
The information described here does not relieve the user of the duty to follow the given safety re-
quirements and legal regulations.
3.2 Notes�for�Mounting�the�Speakers
Warning
Mount the speakers securely. To avoid injury or damage, always be sure to mount the speakers secure-
ly so that they do not fall.
Please note that speakers can move as a result of vibrations. To prevent them from falling from their
mounted position, they must be secured properly.
When laying out the connecting cables, make sure that nobody can trip.
