User manual KLIPSCH CA-650T

[. . . ] USE only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over. UNPLUG this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time. REFER all servicing to qualified service personnel. [. . . ] Use #10-12 2. 5" ­ 3" long pan head screws to attach the bracket into a wall stud. Affix the speaker to the bracket with the supplied knobs. Be sure to leave enough clearance between the end of the bracket and any adjacent wall or ceiling for installation of the knobs. If a wall stud is not available, use the appropriate type of drywall or masonry anchor to support the weight of the speaker, allowing for a generous safety margin. Please consult your dealer, custom installer or building contractor in these situations. You may also use an optional wall or ceiling mount that will fit the provided 3/8" ­ 16 inserts. Please see your authorized Klipsch dealer to see which model is right for you. ABOUT YOUR KLIPSCH PURCHASE Thank you for your purchase of Klipsch outdoor loudspeakers.

CONNECTIONS The CA-525T, CA-650T, CA-800T and CA-800TSW include a multi-tap transformer for 70 or 100 volt installations. There is also a bypass position that allows normal 8 ohm operation for installations that do not require a transformer. The switch is on the back of the speaker and can be set using a small flat head screwdriver. Make the appropriate tap selection as indicated below: CA-525T (Transformer Power Rating: 30W) 70V: 30W, 15W, 7. 5W, 3. 7W, 1. 7W 100V: 30W, 15W, 7. 5W, 3. 7W Bypass Position: 8 ohm Nominal CA-650T / CA-800T / CA-800TSW (Transformer Power Rating: 60W) 70V: 60W, 30W, 15W, 7. 5W, 3. 7W 100V: 60W, 30W, 15W, 7. 5W Bypass Position: 8 ohm Nominal When making any type of speaker wire connection, be sure to observe proper polarity. Most speaker wire and connectors are color-coded. Typically, red is positive (+) and black is negative (­), or ground. It does not matter which wire conductor is connected to the positive or negative connection of your equipment as long as it is consistent. Remove the grille before painting. For best results, use several light coats of paint instead of one heavy coat. This will help prevent the perforations in the grille from becoming clogged with paint. A Figure 2 B BUT FIRST: TYPES OF CONNECTORS Your speaker is equipped with barrier strip connectors for inputs. Make sure that there is no metal-to-metal contact between the two lugs. Failure to observe this precaution at either end of the connection can result in amplifier malfunction or damage. An optional Weatherization and Safety kit is available from your Klipsch dealer. [. . . ] Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages or PAINTING The grille and cabinet of your speakers may be painted. For best results, lightly sand all surfaces to be painted (cabinet and grille) with 300-400 grit sandpaper. Wash these surfaces with a moistened cloth dipped into a mild detergent to remove any fingerprints or grease. Care must be taken to mask off the front of the speaker to protect the tweeter, woofer and front panel from overspray. [. . . ]
