For optimum safety, theinstallation should be checked thoroughly at regular intervals.■ Using eye bolts for suspensionFor optimum safety, make sure to carefully follow theprecautions below.● Use only the supplied eye bolts.● Use three or more eye bolts for suspended installations.● Use the optional array frame if you intend to suspend aspeaker from another suspended speaker.● Install the eye bolts to multiple surfaces of the speaker, notjust one surface.■ Eye bolt strengthKeep in mind that the strength of the eye bolt differsdepending on the suspension angle of the speaker. Makesure that the load for each eye bolt is less than 740 kgwhen suspending at an angle of 0 degrees, and less than185 kg at an angle of 45 degrees.When using the eye bolts, make sure that the suspension angleis within the range of 0 to 45 degrees, as shown below.Do not suspend the eye bolts as shown in the diagram below.NEUTRIK plug Discrete Parallel1+ LF1+ +1– LF1– –2+ LF2+2– LF2–CAUTIONCAUTION2+ 2-1- 1+NOTEYamaha cannot be held responsible for damage or injurycaused by insufficient strength of the support structureor improper installation.CAUTIONCAUTIONCAUTION0º (740kg)45º (185kg)90º (148kg)CAUTION
