Frequently Asked Questions - FH1 YORKVILLE

What is the FH1 kit?

The FH1 is a mounting kit designed by YORKVILLE to assemble two or more speakers in a tight circular configuration. It replaces traditional individual suspension points.

How many speakers can I mount with a single FH1 kit?

One FH1 kit allows mounting a pair of speakers. For larger arrays (3 or 4 speakers), multiple kits can be used (references Z761x2, Z762x2, Z763x4, YS#8920x8).

Do I need to be a professional to install the FH1?

For aerial suspension installations, it is strongly recommended to call a qualified professional. Inadequate installation can cause serious injury.

What tools are needed to assemble the bracket?

Bolts and brackets are provided. You will need tightening tools (wrench) and optionally threadlocker (Loctite™, Permabond™ or Sur-Lok™) to prevent loosening.

How to assemble the FH1 bracket?

1) Place the two Shackle Cross Members side by side. 2) Mount the ends of the Cross Member supports. 3) Slide the support plates into the grooves. Use the provided bolts to align the parts.

How to fasten the brackets to the speakers?

Securely fasten the assembled brackets to the top of the speakers with the four provided bolts, tightening diagonally. Repeat for the bottom after laying the speakers down.

Can I use this kit for aerial suspension?

Yes, the FH1 is designed for aerial suspension. Use shackles in the provided holes. Consult a structural engineer to evaluate the building load.

What safety precautions to observe?

Do not attempt installation without qualifications. Periodically check hardware and cabinet. Use threadlocker on bolts. Inadequate installation can cause injury or death.

How to maintain the assembly after installation?

Regularly inspect all bolts and brackets. Tighten if necessary and apply threadlocker to prevent loosening. Check for corrosion or wear.

USER MANUAL FH1 YORKVILLE

Flyware Bracket System

Yorkville FH1

This hardware kit has been specifically designed to expand your enclosure's already advanced mounting capabilities.

IMPORTANT!! The rigging of loudspeaker systems is an extremely serious matter. Overhead rigging requires extensive experience, including (but not limited to) calculating working load limits, hardware installation, and periodic safety inspection of all hardware and cabinetry. If you lack these qualifications, do not attempt the installation yourself, but instead use a professional structural rigger. Improper installation can result in bodily injury or death. Consult a structural engineer to calculate added loads upon the building. Structural reinforcement may be necessary to insure a safe installation.

The FH1 System

The FH1 installation system has been developed to expand the versatility and simplicity of installing enclosures in multi-box arrays.

The FH1 kit allows enclosures to be mounted in two or more cabinet arrays with greater ease than employing individual three-point hangs for each cabinet. (An arduous chore when attempting to install clusters of loudspeakers using standard eyebolts, shackles and cables. The FH1 is easily mounted strategically to the top and bottom of the enclosure.

Flying Arrays

A single FH1 kit allows a pair of cabinets to be clustered in a tight-pack array at their optimum splay and more can be attached together for larger clusters (3 or more enclosures).

Flyware Bracket System

Attaching the FH1 Bracket to Enclosures

It's easiest to mount the FH1 bracket onto the enclosure prior to flying or mounting.

Step 1

Preparing the enclosures. Remove the two top and two bottom flyware bolts closest to the neighboring side of each enclosure to be conjoined.

FIGURE 1

Step 2

Bracket Assembly. Assemble the FH1 bracket as shown in the diagram. Assemble this on a flat surface.

i. Place the two shackle Cross Members side-by-side (as shown in figure 2a).
ii. Mount Cross Member Support ends of the mated Cross Members (as shown in figure 2b).
iii. Slip the Support Plates into the slots (both ends) created by the mating of the Shackle Cross Members and the Cross Member Support (as shown in figure 2c).

Tip: it's easiest to assemble FH1 Bracket apart from the enclosure, either on a table or the top of the enclosure. Use the supplied bolts to align the Support Plates, The Shackle Cross Members and the Cross Member Support when moving the assembled FH1 bracket.

Step 3

Attaching Brackets to Enclosures. Secure the assembled FH1 bracket to the tops of the neighboring enclosures using the four bolts provided. Tighten bolts in an alternating, diagonal pattern. Tightening each bolt gradually until all are firmly secured.

Tip: To assure that the bolts do not come loose over time, use a bolt threadlocker (ex. Locktite™, Permafond™, or Sur-Lok™ brands). This will help ensure the bolt will be locked in place.

After the FH1 top bracket has successfully been mounted on the enclosures, lay the cabinets on their backs to access the bottoms. Using the supplied Support Plates, bolt them securely together using the same diagonal pattern as you used tightening the top bolts.

Step 4

Using Shackles. When the array is in the upright position, a shackle must be used to fly the array. The multi-pattern holes were designed to give maximum flexibility when angling the array.

Note: The furthest back hole, in the center of the U-Bracket can be used to achieve the greatest amount of downward tilt. If even greater tilt is desired, optional 3/8-inch eyebolts may be used as a pullback on the rear of the cabinets.

Repeat steps as necessary if more than two cabinets need to be arrayed together in one cluster.
