To remove the Xvhg grid hinge, grasp the locking-pinknob and pull out while applying pressure on the hinge to slide the hinge base toward the long cutout at the end of the track. The hinge base will come out of the track once it is aligned with the cutout. For added safety, the locking pin has a special shape that engages with the track to prevent it from vibrating out of the track hole during use. If the locking-pinknob seems difficult to pull out when removing the hinge, wiggle the hinge base while pulling out on the knob. When the hinge locking pin is centered in the track hole, the pin will easily release

4. Rigging Inspection and Precautions
Building, Tower or Scaffold Supports Prior to each use, the strength and load-bearingcapabilities of the building, tower or scaffold structural supports should be evaluated and certified by a professional engineer as being adequate for supporting the intended rigging system including the loudspeakers, grids, chain hoists and all associated hardware. Prior to each use, inspect the building, tower or scaffold structural supports for any cracks, deformation, broken welds, corrosion, missing or damaged components that could reduce the structural strength. Damaged structural supports should be replaced or repaired and recertified by a professional engineer. Never exceed the limitations or maximum recommended load for the supports
