AMT-Series Yoke Rigging Kit Components
Assembling the AMT-Series Yoke Kit
Preparing the AMT-Series Yoke Kit for Assembly with the AMT Loudspeaker
AFTER FIRST SECURELY ATTACHING THE YOKE to a mounting surface (see section 3),
the loudspeaker can be attached to the yoke. This is best accomplished with
two people, one to hold the loudspeaker in place, the other to insert the
hardware (bolts, washers, spacers). The bolt, flat steel washer, steel spacer,
and rubber washer need to be used on each end of the cabinet (top & bottom) to
securely hold the loudspeaker in place.
Holding the loudspeaker in place, line up the holes in the yoke with the holes
in the top and bottom of the enclosure closest to the front of the cabinet.
The first bolt/washer/spacer/rubber washer combination needs to be installed
in the correct order (see Diagram A) on one end of the bracket and speaker,
they can be partially tightened. The second bolt/washer/spacer/rubber washer
combination can then be installed at the other end of the bracket and speaker
and partially tightened. Once the desired orientation of the speaker is
selected, the bolts can be fully tightened to prevent the enclosure from
pivoting.
NOTE: Be sure to use the Rigging Point which is toward the front of the speaker on both the top and bottom of the speaker enclosure to attach the Yoke socket head bolt.
Remove Feet from AMT Speaker
If the enclosure will be pivoted more than a few inches to the left or right /
up or down, remove the 4 feet from the bottom of the enclosure. This will
allow the speaker to rotate fully. When the desired angle has been set, fully
tighten both the top and bottom socket head screws.
NOTE: Be sure that all the hardware has been tightened securely.
However, DO NOT over-tighten.
Safety Cable Anchor Tie Point
A convenient Safety Cable Anchor Tie Point Bracket is provided with the yoke.
This attaches to the rear thread/rigging point in the top of the speaker using
the supplied low-profile socket head bolt with the lock washer. The attached
bracket can now be rotated to the most convenient angle for attaching a safety
cable (cable to be user-supplied).
Mounting Yoke Assembly & AMT Speaker
WARNING: Customer is to be responsible for the mounting hardware and selection of mounting surface. Both the mounting hardware and surface into which the unit is to be attached must be specified to withstand 10X the weight of the suspended assembly. Also, a safety cable should be attached to the unit so as to prevent falling should the mounting hardware/surface attachment fail.
