WARNING: Make sure the stage or floor is stable and level.

WARNING: Do not allow the subwoofer to protrude over the edge of a stage. Make sure the entire subwoofer is resting on the stage.

WARNING: Do not create a stack of more than two subwoofer.

WARNING: Do not use a pole mount with a stack of subwoofoers.

With a Loudspeaker

WARNING: Make sure the subwoofer is placed on a stable, level surface.

WARNING: Refer to all relevant documentation for the loudspeaker and pole before attaching them to the subwoofer. Make sure the subwoofer can support the weight of the loudspeaker and pole. Once the subwoofer and pole are assembled and the loudspeaker is attached, make sure the whole assembly is stable and does not present a tipping or falling hazard.

WARNING: Do not attempt to move the whole assembly. Remove the loudspeaker from the pole before moving the subwoofer.

WARNING: Do not use a pole mount with a stack of subwoofoers.

Installation (Suspension)

Installation Guidelines

Bose AMS subwoofoers include threaded inserts to accommodate suspension methods as described in this document.

Unsafe overhead suspension of any heavy load can result in serious injury or death and property damage. It is the installer's responsibility to evaluate the reliability of any suspension method used for their application. Only professional installers with the knowledge of proper hardware and safe suspension techniques should attempt to install any loudspeaker or subwoofer overhead.

If you are using a custom-designed suspension system, have a licensed professional engineer review the design and planned method of attachment to the building structure for structural integrity and safety in the intended application.

Choose fasteners that are consistent with all local building codes and requirements to support the weight of the subwoofer.

• Use only fasteners/hardware of Class 8.8 or greater.
• Do not use unmarked machine fasteners for mounting system assemblies as there is no way to determine their physical properties.
• Use only M10 fasteners for the M10 threaded inserts on the subwoofer. Although SAE 3/8'' - 16 fasteners are similar, they are not interchangeable with M10 fasteners.
• Do not over-tighten fasteners. Doing so may irreparably damage the cabinet and create an unsafe assembly.
• Make sure fasteners are long enough to engage at least 8 threads of the attachment point. Using a fastener that is engaged with fewer than 8 threads will result in inadequate support of the subwoofer, which may strip the threads and create an unsafe assembly.
• Do not alter or re-thread the threaded attachment points to accommodate any other thread size or type. Doing so will compromise the safety of the installation and permanently damage the subwoofer.
  For a vibration-resistant assembly, use a locking compound intended for hand disassembly (such as Loctite 242^

Do not use the subwoofer handles to suspend the subwoofer.

Do not suspend additional loudspeakers or other items from the Bose AMS subwoofer.

Suspension

WARNING: To ensure safe product installation and usage, it is the installer's responsibility to refer to the previous Installation Guidelines section and the user documentation of all mounting components before installing the product.

To suspend the subwoofer from the ceiling, attach M10 threaded eye bolts to the four M10 threaded attachment points on the top or side panel of the subwoofer. Use only load-rated eye bolts intended for lifting (per ASME B30.26).

If you are using a custom-designed suspension system or hardware, a licensed professional engineer must review the design and fabrication. Obtain all suspension system components from reputable manufacturers.

Processor Presets

Use only approved Bose Professional loudspeaker presets. The presets listed here are available when using Bose Professional PowerMatch amplifiers.
