Terminal block for connection of an installation amplifier and for sending the amplifier signal to the additional loudspeakers in parallel (terminal block supplied). When wiring, please ensure correct polarity (see illustration above terminal block).

COVER PLATE For outdoor installations, use the supplied cover plate to protect the connectors and switches from wetness and humidity. The cable glands in the cover plate

are suitable for round cables with an ex- ternal diameter of up to 7 mm. Ensure that the rubber gasket is correctly positioned before securing the cover plate to the speaker housing. Then tighten the locking nuts on the cable glands. Use the supplied blanking plugs to seal any open cable glands if only one cable is used to control the speaker.6 ITALIANO POLSKI ESPAÑOL FRANCAIS DEUTSCH ENGLISH MOUNTING Thanks to the supplied U-bracket, the speaker can be installed in a suitable location on a level surface. Important safety notice: Overhead mounting requires extensive experience, including the calculation of the load limit values of the installation material and regular safety inspection of all installation materials and speakers. If you do not have these qualifications, do not attempt to perform an installation yourself. Refer instead to a qualified professional.

The U-bracket is supplied installed to the column speaker. Loosen and remove the M8 screws on the top and bottom of the speaker and remove the bracket and the washers from the speaker. Screw the U-bracket (in a suitable position) to a load-bearing wall or ceiling

. Use suitable screws and plugs etc. and ensure secure installation. (9 mm hole diameter, screws, plugs etc. not supplied.) Lift the speaker into the bracket so that the thread locations in the speaker and the holes in the bracket are aligned. Use the previously removed M8 screws and washers as shown in the illustrations (place washers between the bracket and the speaker), adjust the dispersion angle as desired and tighten the screws with a suitable tool

. The U-bracket is also equipped with feed holes for signal cables

Tip: Install the U-bracket on a wall with the slanted recess in the slot facing upwards. Place a washer on the mounting hole on the top end of the speaker and partially screw a suitable screw into the thread. Lift the speaker into the U-bracket and insert the installation screw into the slanted recess in the slot, then pull the speaker forwards as far as possible. Now a washer and installation screw can be easily positioned and secured at the bottom of the speaker.

DEUTSCHFRANCAIS ESPAÑOL ENGLISH ITALIANO POLSKI SECURING POINTS Four M5 threads serve as securing points which can be used to secure the speaker

. To do so, loosen a housing screw at the required position and replace it with a suitable M5 ring bolt. M5 threads for the attachment of an M5 ringbolt are located on the top and bottom of the U-bracket

Use a suitable safety cable to secure the speaker.

OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES An adjustable tilt-and-turn wall bracket is available as an optional accessory.
