TR-0750 Truss Instructions for EAW KF750 Loudspeaker Truss

This TR-0750 suspension truss supports the Eastern Acoustic Works KF700 series touring speakers only. Do not use for any other purpose. Important: Rigging loudspeakers requires experienced, trained professionals. Improperly installed loudspeakers can result in property damage, personal injury, death and/or liability to the installing contractor. Due to the wide variety of overhead structures, materials and rigging combinations, these instructions assume that the installing contractor will exercise proper judgment in selecting the proper rigging location and rigging equipment. As a guide, the installation, when completed, should be capable of supporting ten times the actual combined applied load. Read these important instructions for the best rigging results. Do not exceed the working load limit of 1520 lbs./690 Kg. Use only Grade 8 supplied hardware. This truss supports a maximum of 7 (seven) KF750 speakers in a vertical column.

Step 1. Attach the hoist ring to the center hole of the hoist bracket using a 3/4” nut and a 3/4” washer (Figure 1). Torque the nut down to 100 foot pounds. Step 2. Lay the TR-0750 truss on a flat surface making sure the arrows of the “ This End Up” labels point up. Step 3. Mounting position of the Hoist Ring Assembly on the truss module will be

determined by the center of gravity of the array. Attach the hoist ring assembly to the TR-0750 truss using two 1/2” x 5-1/2” bolts, flat washers, lock washers and hex nuts placing the lock washer in between the nut and the flat washer. Tighten permanently (Figure 1). Step 4. Array/Cluster Procedures Before starting, be sure that all cables, speakers, and fasteners in the suspension system are capable of supporting five to ten times the gross weight of the system. Single Cabinet application Capture the hoist ring of the truss with suitable rigging equipment (Figure 3). Be sure that all hardware, fasteners, cables and lifting chains are fitted and secured before hoisting the truss/speaker assembly. When hoisting, lift entire system a short distance and check each and every connection thoroughly before proceeding.
