Step 7: Adjust Tap Selector (Figure 19)
The tap selector switch is located on the front baffle.Adjust the speaker to the appropriate tap setting before installing the grille. In some 70V/100V constant voltage installations it is advisable to leave the grilles off if final speaker audio level balance adjustments are to be made later.After the levels are adjusted the grilles can then be installed.

INSTALLATION NOTE:
GRILLE SAFETY FEATURE
EVID grilles features a unique safety tether to prevent the grille from falling if the grille is removed or comes loose after installation.
First, install the grille’s safety tether by push- ing the grille fastener into the hole in the front of the baffle (see Figure 20). Second, press the grille into place until the front of the grille is flush with the rim of the baffle. Make sure the grille is securely seated to prevent it from vibrating loose.
If you need to remove the grille, the easiest way is to insert two bent paper clips or other pointed objects into holes in the grille, then apply slow even pressure to pull down on the grille until that section of the grille comes out slightly. Continue the same procedure around the perimeter of the grille, loosening a portion at a time until the grille is removed.
