12.4 SECUR ET – VEB Eyebolt
The Tannoy V12HP loudspeaker can be flown with high quality VEB M10 eyebolts with collar to BS4278:1984. The loudspeakers are equipped with internal steel braces, which also double as the flying points, and accept VEB M10 eyebolts.
To install the VEB M10 eyebolts remove the original M10 counter sunk screws from the locations you wish to install the VEB M10 eyebolts. Then replace these counter sunk M10 screws with the VEB M10 eyebolts. The M10 insert on the rear of the cabinet also accepts a VEB M10 eyebolt
Fig. 1and should only be used for tilting the loudspeaker to the desired angle.
Important: It is imperative for safety reasons that
!two eyebolts linked to two independently fixed straps are used per cabinet. VEB eyebolts should be installed into the relative sides of the cabinet, and should NEVER be installed on the top of the cabinet. Never suspend one enclosure from another to form a line array or cluster using these fittings.
The correct method is shown in figure 2.
Never attempt to use formed eyebolts i.e. formed from a steel rod and bent into an eye.
Only use the outer fixing points on the top and sides of the V12HP cabinet for fixing eyebolts. The inner two fixing points on each side of the cabinet are for dedicated bracketry (VMY) only.
