Under nocircumstances is personnel allowed to climb on a loudspeaker assembly.Respect the Working Load Limit (WLL) of third party equipment.L-Acoustics is not responsible for any rigging equipment and accessories provided by third party manufacturers.Verify that the Working Load Limit (WLL) of the suspension points, chain hoists and all additional hardwarerigging accessories is respected.Respect the maximum congurations and the recommended safety precautions.For safety issue, respect the maximum congurations outlined in this manual. To check the conformity ofany conguration in regards with the safety precautions recommended by L-Acoustics, model the system inSoundvision and refer to the warnings in Mechanical Data section.Be cautious when ying a loudspeaker conguration.Always verify that no one is standing underneath the loudspeaker array when it is being raised. As the arrayis being raised, check each individual element to make sure that it is securely fastened to the adjacent element.Never leave the array unattended during the installation process.As a general rule, L-Acoustics recommends the use of safety slings at all times.Be cautious when ground-stacking a loudspeaker array.Do not stack the loudspeaker array on unstable ground or surface.
