INSTALLATION MANUAL
TOA's HY-PF1B, HY-PF1W, and HY-PF1WP are used exclusively to suspend the HX-5 speaker system from the high
ceiling.
Both the HY-PF1B and HY-PF1W are designed for indoor use, while the HY-PF1WP is designed for under-eave use.
The FB-120 series Subwoofer can be suspended using the HY-PF1B or HY-PF1W and the frame's supplied mounting
brackets.
1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Before installation or use, be sure to carefully read all the
instructions in this section for correct and safe operation.
• Be sure to follow all the precautionary instructions in this
section, which contain important warnings and/or
cautions regarding safety.
• After reading, keep this manual handy for future
reference.
• Refer all installation work to the dealer from whom the
speaker was purchased. Installation for flying requires
extensive technical knowledge and experience. The
speaker may fall off if incorrectly installed, resulting in
possible personal injury.
• Flying Precautions
Be sure to follow the instructions below. Otherwise, the
suspension wires or belts may be off or snap and the
speaker may fall off, causing personal injury.
· Use nuts and bolts that are appropriate for the ceiling's
structure and composition.
· Check to confirm that the suspension wires and belts
are strong enough to withstand the load.
· The connectors of the suspension wires and belts must
be securely linked with those of the load.
· All parts and components (such as enclosures, metal
pieces, and screws) must be free from any
deformation, crack, and corrosion.
· Be sure to use screws supplied with the optional flying
hardware when installing the speaker using such
hardware.
• Install the unit only in a location that can structurally
support the weight of the unit and the speaker. Doing
otherwise may result in the speaker falling down and
causing personal injury and/or property damage.
• (HY-PF1B and HY-PF1W only)
Since the unit is designed for indoor use, do not install it
outdoors. If installed outdoors, the aging of parts causes
the speaker to fall off, resulting in personal injury.
• Owing to the speaker's size and weight, be sure that at
least two persons are available to install the unit. Failure
to do so could result in personal injury.
• Do not use other methods than specified to mount the
unit. Extreme force is applied to the unit and the speaker
could fall off, possibly resulting in personal injuries.
• Tighten each nut and bolt securely. Ensure that the unit
has no loose joints after installation to prevent accidents
that could result in personal injury.
• Use the specified speaker in combination. Doing
otherwise may cause the speaker to fall off, resulting in
personal injury.
• Do not mount the unit in locations exposed to constant
vibration. The unit can be damaged by excessive
vibration, potentially causing the speaker to fall, which
could result in personal injury.
• Avoid installing the speaker in locations close to the
seashore or in indoor swimming facilities that are not well
ventilated. In such locations the bracket may be
vulnerable to corrosion, eventually allowing the speaker
to fall resulting in personal injury.
• Avoid touching the unit's sharp metal edge to prevent
injury.
• Do not stand or sit on, nor hang down from the unit as
this may cause it to fall down or drop, resulting in
personal injury and/or property damage.
• Have the unit checked periodically by the shop from
where it was purchased. Failure to do so may result in
corrosion or damage to the unit that could cause the unit
to fall, possibly causing personal injury.
2. PRECAUTIONS WHEN INSTALLING
THE HY-PF1WP
• Only the HY-PF1WP can be installed under eaves.
• Only the HX-5B-WP and HX-5W-WP speaker systems
can be installed under eaves.
· All speaker modules must point downward from the
horizontal. Failure to do so could adversely affect
their intended performance as a splash-proof speaker
and their weather-resistant capabilities, leading to
malfunction.
· When installing the HX-5B-WP or HX-5W-WP speaker
outdoors, be sure to mount it under eaves wherever
possible to prevent direct exposure to rain and wind.
Failure to follow this instruction could cause the speaker
to exceed its capabilities as a splash-proof speaker,
potentially leading to malfunction.
