Suspension or flying speaker systems requires training and expertise. Improper rigging of a flying speaker may result in injury, death, equipment damage, and legal liability.

Installation must be carried out by fully qualified installers, in accordance with all the required safety codes and standards that are applied at the place of installation. 5:1 design factor is a generally accepted design standard, however, legal require- ments for flying vary by municipality. Please consult you local safety standards office before installing any product. We also recommend that you thoroughly check any laws and bylaws prior to installation.

If you lack the skills, training, and proper ancillary equipment to fly a speaker system do not attempt to do so.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

surface using the optional “C” bracket the installer must ensure that the surface is capable of safely and securely supporting the load. The hardware employed must be safely and securely attached both to the loudspeaker and the surface in question, using only the mounting holes. If you are unsure of the integrity of the mounting surface please seek assistance from architects, structural engineers or other specialists.

OMNIMOUNT™

Inserts are provided on the top, bottom and back of both models to accommodate Omnimount™ brackets. Use the Omnimount™ 30 series for the SM8SUB70-B.

STAND MOUNTING

The optional Atlas Sound SSA7 can be used with the top and bot- tom cabinet inserts to facilitate stand mounting for portable use.

HEARING DAMAGE

CAUTION: These professional loudspeaker systems are capable of generating very high sound pressure levels. Use care with placement and operation to avoid exposure to excessive levels that can cause permanent hearing damage.

OUTDOOR USE

The systems should not be flown or used in permanent outdoor applications under any circumstances.

FUSE PROTECTION

Units are shipped with a 20A fuse installed. This high current fuse functions as a through connection and offers no protection. If fuse protection is desired please replace the 20A fuse with a 4A fuse slow-blow type (AGC or 3AG type). Please note that for 70V opera- tion the internal transformer with a maximum tap of 60 watts nullifies the need for fuse protection.
