in a shaded area and is well ventilated to help prevent overheating.

Suspension
Suspending any object is potentially dangerous and should only be attempted by qualified individuals with thorough knowledge of the techniques and regulations for suspending objects. It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure all fixtures and effects are installed correctly. AVE strongly recommends inspecting installed systems every 6 months for signs of weakness or damage. If any damage or weakness is detected then remedial action should be taken immediately. The user is responsible for making sure the wall, ceiling, or structure is capable of supporting all objects suspended overhead. Any hardware used to suspend the fixture not associated with AVE is the responsibility of others.

Mounting
The Hex-Flat 6 is fitted with a Dual yoke that can be separated and used as a
floor stand for use on flat & sturdy surfaces.
For hanging the fixture to a lighting stand or trussing, simply attach a
lighting clamp to the outer yoke, ensuring that the clamp is tightened to
prevent unwanted movement.
Next, attach a safety wire through the eyelets located on the rear panel of
the fixture. Secure the safety cable to the stand or trussing.
This is a secondary fall arrest; in the event, the yoke or clamp fail, the fixture is safe from causing serious injury or damage
