DANGER: If there is any question about the integrity or capability of any part to perform its
intended function when used to suspend or mount a loudspeaker, immediately remove it
from service for repair or replacement.
WARNING:
Do not under any circumstances use a loudspeaker's handles to support the weight
of the loudspeaker except for their intended use: hand carrying. The handles are not rated to
support the load of the loudspeaker for temporary or permanent installation.
WARNING: Rigging loudspeakers is an extremely serious matter with potentially lethal
consequences should anything go wrong. It is of vital importance that this task is done by
persons qualified to do so and who have a full understanding of all factors involved, with safety
as the number one priority. Only persons with the knowledge of and experience with proper
hardware and safe rigging techniques should attempt to suspend or mount loudspeaker systems
overhead. For all questions involving loudspeaker rigging, consult a licensed, qualified
Professional Engineer or Professional Rigger. All rigging work must be done in accordance with
and in compliance with all applicable regulations governing such work.
