Safety Notes on Rigging

The Turbosound rigging system has been designed and constructed to a high standard of safety, and tested to the most demanding of specifications. In order to ensure the highest safety standards, this information on the assembly and safe use of rigging accessories must be understood and followed.

Only use Turbosound recommended rigging accessories, which are specifically designed for their intended purpose. Do not use Turbosound rigging with other types or brands of loudspeakers. This practice may compromise safety standards and Turbosound will not be responsible for damage or injury so caused. Do not modify the rigging accessories, or use them in a way other than that described in this user manual. Rigging components supplied as part of a complete assembly are non-interchangeable and must not be exchanged with the component parts of any other assembly. The component parts of a Turbosound rigging accessory must only be assembled using the fasteners and methods of assembly recommended in this guide. The use of fasteners and methods of assembly not specified or approved by Turbosound may result in an unsafe rigging assembly. Welding, or any other means of permanently fixing rigging components to each other or to cabinet fixing points is not allowed. Rigging assemblies must only be assembled using the appropriate parts and fixings as specified in this manual using the specific mounting instructions. Rigging components or assemblies must only be fixed to Turbosound loudspeaker cabinets using the cabinet fixing points, assembly methods and fasteners specified in this guide and the specific mounting instructions. When assembling the loudspeaker array ensure that all fixings are securely tightened before lifting the array.

Secondary Safeties

All loudspeakers flown in theatres, studios or other places of work and entertainment must, in addition to the principle load bearing means of suspension, be provided with an independent, properly rated and securely attached secondary safety. Only steel wire ropes or steel chains of an approved construction and load rating may be used as secondary safeties. Plastic covered steel wire ropes are not permitted for use as secondary safeties.

Safety Inspections

Carefully inspect rigging systems components and cabinets for defects or signs of damage before proceeding to assemble a flown array. If any parts are damaged or suspect, DO NOT USE THEM.

Regular, more rigorous test and inspection of rigging components must also be carried out. Safety legislation and test and inspection requirements will vary from country to country. In most cases, annual independent test and inspection by a suitably approved and qualified inspector will be required. Users must ensure compliance with all applicable safety requirements. Turbosound recommends regular safety inspections and further recommends that a logbook be kept detailing the test and inspection history of each Turbosound rigging accessory. Always wear protective headwear, footwear and eye protection in accordance with local regulations. Anyone involved in flying ANY sound system should take note of the following advice:

The rigging of a flown sound system may be dangerous unless undertaken by qualified personnel with the required experience and certification to perform the necessary tasks. Fixing of hanging points in a roof should always be carried out by a professional rigger and in accordance with the local rules of the venue. The house rigger and/or building manager must always be consulted.
