OVERHEAD RIGGING
•Important: The installation must be carried out by qualified service personal only. Improper
installation can result in serious injuries and/or damage to property. Overhead rigging requires
extensive experience! Working load limits should be respected, certified installation materials
should be used, the installed device should be inspected regularly for safety.
•Make sure the area below the installation place is free from unwanted persons during rigging, de-rigging
and servicing.
•Locate the fixture in a well ventilated spot, far away from any flammable materials and/or liquids. The
fixture must be fixed at least 50cm from surrounding walls.
•The device should be installed out of reach of people and outside areas where
persons may walk by or be seated.
•Before rigging make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point load of
10times the device’s weight.
•Always use a certified safety cable that can hold 12times the weight of the device
when installing the unit. This secondary safety attachment should be installed in a
way that no part of the installation can drop more than 20cm if the main attachment fails.
•The device should be well fixed; a free-swinging mounting is dangerous and may not be considered!
•Don’t cover any ventilation openings as this may result in overheating.
•The operator has to make sure that the safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by
an expert before using them for the first time. The installations should be inspected every year by a skilled
person to be sure that safety is still optimal.

•WHITE POLE KNOB: While operating this knob the projector can be pointed in the
