Third. Locking panels together:

The ends of each panel are designed to “peel” away (see figure 2), allowing the panels to be locked together. This creates a continuous acoustical wall. Panels can then be hinged up to 60°. When removing these pieces, we suggest labeling both the panel and the end cap in a location that will be concealed once connected. This will allow you to replace the end caps without them being mismatched. Our cutting tolerance can vary slightly; end caps that are mismatched with panels may

not exactly match, and thus may not be a perfect fit (too loose). Decide which set of panels are to be interconnected and remove the adjacent end pieces. Must be male to female for this to work. If you need to, just flip the MAX-Wall panel over so the panels

MaleFemale correctly connect male to female (figure 3).

If ends of panels are adjacent, but hinged greater than 60° (actually 120° for you math-

ematicians), leave the end caps on and connect the panels together with long pins (clothing, t-pins, etc.) or purchase our optional MAX-Wall Corner Couplers. If the ends of the panels are at the end of your setup, we suggest leaving them on for appearance reasons!

Optional Accessories:

1.Window Unit: 20” x 48” MAX-Wall panel with an 18” x 12” Plexiglass window (1⁄4” thick). The MAX-Wall support stand can be adjusted so you can attach a microphone gooseneck (as pictured).

2.MAX-Wall Corner Couplers Designed to allow panels to be attached at a 90° (80° to 100°) angle.

MAX-Wall Tips:

End Cap

1.Some panels may show a slight variation in color/shade. This is due to the

direction of the cut from our production saw. Pull all of the panels out of the box(es) and mix/match the best combinations. We suggest the closest matches be used on the same stand

for color consistency.

2.If you need to extend the height of the MAX-Wall beyond the capabilities of the MAX-Wall support stand, 5/8” PVC pipe can be placed over the smaller diameter top of the stand and cut to a height to sup- port panels above normal height.

3.A more “curved” environment (figure 4). If you desire the MAX-Wall to “surround” you beyond the normal hinging of the panels, you can “fracture” the hole lock in the center of the panel, creating a 45° with an individual panel. Be aware that the hole lock can be restored, but may not

be as strong or attractive as before. The “frac- tured” panels are best used when the ends are interlocked with other panels to prevent sagging.

4.Keep the shipping

box(es) for storage if the MAX-Wall will be

moved around or used intermittently.
