1. Safety Instructions
The rigging system may only be suspended by trained specialised personnel
with proof of their qualifications as a certified 'rigger'.
The Click & Fly System is only for professional use and is only to be used to mount
Kling & Freitag speakers SW 215E, SW 215E – SP, Line 212 and Line 212 – SP. Fur-
thermore, it may only be used as specified for uses at trade fairs, in theatres, studios,
and events, etc. according to the stipulations of the BGV C1 or a comparable national
standard.
As a general rule the rigging system must be inspected each time it is packed or un-
packed. If permanently installed the system must be checked for signs of wear at
regular intervals.
In addition an inspection book for the array system should be kept. This book should
document maintenance measures and inspection intervals and contain parts lists.
If as a result of these checks any uncertainty should arise with regard to safety or if
specific faults are found, the rigging system may no longer be used.
During the course of these checks particular attention should be paid to evidence of
deformation, cracks, damage to threads and corrosion. Mounting devices such as
shackles, chains and wire ropes should also be carefully checked for signs of wear or
deformation.
Any damaged components must be replaced immediately. Do not attempt to repair
the Click & Fly system by yourself! If the flyware is damaged, it must be disposed of
immediately. Please send the Click & Fly system back to Kling & Freitag GmbH or bring
it to a professional scrap processing plant. It must by all means be guaranteed that the
system can no longer be used in any way after its disposal.
For assembly only original Kling & Freitag parts may be used. The use of other parts –
in particular parts by other manufacturers – is not authorized.
Please adhere to the maximum admissible load capacity of the Click & Fly system (135
kg / Main Bar), and do not exceed the maximum admissible configurations (chapter 9).
The Click & Fly system may not be used to lift and secure persons or objects aside
from the above-mentioned speakers.
Please refer also to the operating and safety instructions for the product on which the
Click & Fly system is to be suspended (e.g. truss). If no information is available regard-
ing safety of use and permissible load, then the rigging system must not be sus-
pended upon it. Make sure that the rigging points on the ceiling of the hall (i.e. chain
hoists) comply with the accident prevention regulation BGV C1 (presentation and
production sites for scenic performances) or the comparable safety regulations for
your country. Furthermore, the total load must be approved by TÜV or a comparable
institution. If in doubt, let local authorities verify this.
Those persons entrusted with the task of erecting the rigging system are responsible
for ensuring the safe assembly and safe operation of the system.
These instructions and all other necessary information regarding safety of operation
must be distributed to all persons using the rigging system. The system may not be
assembled and put into operation unless these instructions have been read and un-
derstood.
When chain hoists are being used to move loudspeaker arrays all persons must vacate
the area below and around.
A clear signal must be given on each occasion before the system is raised, lowered or
released from its rigging. All persons must then remove themselves from the radius of
movement.
Warning

User’s Manual Click & Fly® for LINE 212 / SW 215E
KLING & FREITAG GMBH ©2002 Page 6 of 26
The safe operation of the rigging system depends upon various factors specific to the
area of operation. For example, adverse weather conditions such as wind or rain can
impair the safety of the system. These factors must be considered and evaluated in
each case.
If there is the slightest doubt with regard to the safety of the rigging system
it may not be put into use.
Ensure that all connections are secured against coming loose and that only author-
ized, statically tested and correctly sized supports, mounting equipment, wire ropes
and chains are used.
Observe the prescribed safety factors. Follow the safety instructions for speakers and
mounting equipment as well as the respective national rules, norms and safety regula-
tions.
The information given here does not exempt the user from his obligation to observe
valid safety regulations and legal requirements.
1.1 Click & Fly with Classification ‘CLICK & FLY RIGGING SYSTEM’
Older Click & Fly systems with the classification of ‘CLICK & FLY RIGGING SYSTEM’

3. General Instructions for using the Click & Fly System
Definition:
Horizontal Array Vertical Array
The suspension of speaker systems must be carried out only by trained specialist person-
nel.
The Click & Fly system must always be
mounted with two wire ropes or chains,
which are independent of one another!
Furthermore, the systems, no matter if
individual or connected to one another,
must be secured onto the Ancra flying
track on the rear. The safety rope must
have a minimum length of 100 cm and
must be attached so that, in case it falls,
the height of the fall is kept to a minimum. A possible fall height of 20 cm may not
be exceeded! With a higher fall height, the dynamic load of a fall could be inadmis-
sibly high; potential risk of system crash. Further information about the selection of
permissible safety wire ropes and specifications about the correct diameter can be
found in the supplied safety instructions for speakers and assembly equipment and
also in the BG publication BGI 810-3 (SP 25.1/2-4) “Supply and Use of Safety Wire
Ropes and Chains”.
Ensure that all connections are secured to prevent their detaching on their own and that
only admissible statically tested and sufficiently sized connecting devices, ropes and chains
are used. Please follow the accompanying safety and mounting instructions carefully.
If a single flown speaker system is to be mounted into a vertical alignment, attach a single
stud fitting as a rigging point onto the middle of the Ancra flying track on the rear of the
speaker.
If a speaker unit consisting of several connected systems is to be flown and aligned, then
the individual speakers must be attached to one another via the An-
cra flying track. Consult the provided illustration when doing so. For
the rear connection of the loudspeaker systems use the double stud
fittings included and the 1/2" shackle. Tighten the threaded bolt of
the shackle with a torque of 10 Nm (hand-tight with 200 mm long
lever, e.g. screwdriver). Alternatively, you can use proven, high-
strength shackles with a cotter pin. Only in this way can you ensure
that the bolt will not become loose.
The safety ropes of different systems must
always come together at one point.
While installing, be sure that the system can
swing in case a rigging point fails. With this
in mind, the speaker must be mounted so
that no people or objects are within the
potential range of the swinging speakers.
In vertical operations Kling & Freitag speak-
ers with a maximum weight of 73 kg may
be mounted under one Line 212 or SW
215E system. To do this both flying points (Line 212) or flying tracks (SW 215E) at the
bottom of the speaker must be used. In addition, it must be ensured that the speakers
mounted below are also secured at two flying points.

4. Selection of the right System Connector
4.1 Connecting several Line 212 Systems
The following Click & Fly System Connectors are available for combinations of Line 212
Systems:
Click & Fly System Connector 30°:
If you want to array several Line 212 systems with a rotated horn, we generally recom-
mend using the 30° System Connector. It doesn't matter if the systems to be clustered
consist only of Line 212-6, Line 212-9 or a combination of both systems. The horizontal
coverage angle for each system with a rotated horn is 50°.
Click & Fly System Connector 38,5°:
If you want to array several Line 212-6 systems (horn not rotated), we recommend using
the 38.5° System Connector.
Click & Fly System Connector 45°:
If you want to array a Line 212-6 (horn not rotated) and a Line 212-9 (horn not rotated)
we recommend using the 45° System Connector.

If several 90° speakers without a rotated horn are clustered, unwanted interference
effects may appear. As a result, this arrangement is not recommended.
If the loudspeakers are operated via the optional K&F C2 System Controller, we recom-
mend turning on the top low cut switch for clustered operation of Line 212 systems.
Thus the frequency pattern for this application can be optimised (see also K&F C2 User's
Manual).
To simulate the correct alignment of the speakers beforehand, there are various pro-
grams such as "Ease", "Ulysses". The Kling & Freitag speaker system data is available
for download on our website "www.kling-freitag.de".

4.1.1 Coverage Pattern of the Line 212 Systems
The following graphics demonstrate how to recognize how the built-in horn emits in a
standing speaker: To determine the coverage pattern of the high frequency horn,
shine a flashlight through the front covering at the level of the horn. You will find a
silver stripe that determines the position and coverage angles of the horn.

and lifting the cluster
The wire ropes/chains, which will be used to hoist
the speaker cluster, must be connected onto the
top drill holes of the main bar using shackles, and
then the cluster can be pulled up. Because the
bottom Line 212 system still has the cover with
wheels on it, it is especially convenient to raise.
Caution! The cluster can swing when being
raised!

8. Examples for correctly suspended Speaker Systems
The Click & Fly system must always be
mounted with two wire ropes or chains,
which are independent of one another!
Furthermore, the systems, no matter if indi-
vidual or connected to one another, must be
secured onto the Ancra flying track on the
rear. This safety rope may be used for align-
ing the systems.
The safety rope must have a minimum
length of 100 cm and must be attached
so that, in case it falls, the height of the
fall is kept to a minimum. A possible fall
height of 20 cm may not be exceeded!
With a higher fall height, the dynamic
load of a fall could be inadmissibly high.
Right:
−A two-point suspension on the main bar
was selected. Each speaker must never-
theless be secured with a safety rope.
The safety ropes can also be fastened on
the main bar of the Click & Fly system.
−The suspended speaker weighs no more
than 73 kg. This falls within the 135 kg
total load-bearing capacity of the main
bar.
−The angle of the rope/chain in relation
to the top of the mounted speaker is
greater than 45°. This maintains the per-
missible load on the flying points.
−The rear mounted safety ropes come
together at one point.
Right:
−The rigging points are selected so that
the weight of the speakers is evenly dis-
tributed.
−The speakers are connected to one an-
other on the rear with double stud fit-
tings and shackles and are aligned by
using the safety ropes. The suspension
point is located on the connection
point (shackle) of the three Line 212
systems. As a result, the load is dis-
tributed to the three Line 212 systems
−The rear mounted safety ropes come
together at one point.

Right:
−The uppermost drill holes of the main bars are
used as suspension points.
−The speakers are connected to one another
on the rear with double stud fittings and
shackles. The suspension point is located on
the connection point (shackle) of the two
lower Line 212 systems. As a result, the load
is distributed to the two speakers.
Right:
−The two suspended speakers are not each di-
rectly mounted on one flying point of the upper
speaker systems. Instead, more Click & Fly main
bars are mounted on the bottom of the upper
speaker. In this way the load can be taken up by
all four suspension points of the upper speakers.
Please note that the closer the rigging points
of the speakers hung from the bottom are
located to the outer edge, the less evenly the
load will be distributed over all 4 points. The
maximum load is, therefore, limited to 53 kg.
−Each speaker is secured with an additional
safety rope. The safety ropes can also be fas-
tened on the upper main bar of the Click & Fly
system. In this case the safety ropes should be
distributed on the two upper main bars.
−The rear mounted safety ropes come to-
gether at one point.
Right:
−The cluster is hung from two independently
acting chains fastened to the top drill holes of
the Click & Fly Main Bars.
−The Line 212 Systems are connected to one
another on the rear using double stud fit-
tings and shackles and are secured with two
safety ropes. The mounting points are at the
connections (shackles) of the three Line 212 sys-
tems. In doing so, the load is distributed onto
the three Line 212 systems.
