Using the suspension points

The P1500X suspension points are M10 threads with a depth of 25mm. Two suspension points are located on each handle (top for vertical orientation and on the side for horizontal orientation) as well as two pull-back points located on the rear of the unit.

CAUTION: When using suspension installation, be sure to observe the following:

Loudspeaker suspension requires qualified persons who are familiar with rigging standards and practices. Any unsafe mounting of any heavy load can result in serious injury and equipment damage.

Consult a licensed, professional engineer regarding equipment installation and ensure that all local, state and national regulations regarding the safety and operation of loudspeakers and related equipment are understood and adhered to.

Do not attempt to suspend the loudspeakers by the handles.

Before loudspeaker suspension, be sure to inspect all critical points for any cracks, deformations, corrosion and/or missing parts that may affect the strength and safety of the installation.

Only use commercially-available M10 load-rated shoulder eyebolts along with rigging hardware appropriate for the actual load.

Fittings and rigging hardware may deteriorate over extended periods of time due to wear and/or corrosion, be sure the installed is checked thoroughly by qualified personal at regular intervals.

Cerwin-Vega! cannot be held responsible for damage or injury caused by insufficient strength of the support structure or improper installation.

Do not use the pull-back point as the suspension point for a majority of the load. The pull-back points are intended for angling the loudspeaker downwards only. Note that the loudspeaker suspension points are intended for one loudspeaker only.
