User manual MARTIN AUDIO S18

[. . . ] With its multi-angle cabinet shape and rotatable horn, it can be either tripod mounted or used as a highly efficient floor monitor. To rotate the horn for horizontal use, remove the grille (see 3. 5 ), unscrew the horn and rotate it through 90 degrees. The F12 may be used with or without an M3 controller. F15 The F15 delivers impressive and dynamic fullfrequency sound from a compact 2-way speaker. [. . . ] Never stand close to loudspeakers driven at high level. 4. 1 Tripod mounting The F12 and F15 incorporates a pole mounting socket to facilitate mounting on tripod stands. When using stands, the following precautions are advised: Ensure that the stand will support the weight of the speaker by checking the stand manufacturers rating. Make sure that the stand is placed on a level surface and that its legs are fully extended. Do not place more than one speaker on each stand. Run cables so that they do not present a trip hazard which could pull the speaker over. When used outdoors in the wind, it may be necessary to add some weight to the base of the stand. When using a pole mount with a sub-bass system, observe similar precautions. 4. 2 Stacking Ensure that the floor or stage is level and solid. Do not stack speakers too high outdoors where winds could topple the stack. Be aware that speakers producing very high power levels can move or creep. To avoid this, place friction material between the floor and speaker and between each speaker. 4. 3 Rigging and suspension WARNING: Suspending the system should only be done by qualified personnel following safe rigging practices. Secure fixings to the building structure are vital. Seek help from architects, structural engineers or other specialists if in any doubt. 5 Martin Audio ­ Blackline Series CONTENTS < > ENGLISH PRINT GUIDES Blackline Series enclosures are designed for portable applications, but can be suspended singly by means of the threaded inserts provided. The F12, F15, H2 and H3 enclosures are fitted internally with steel corner reinforcement brackets to ensure that each cabinet is strong enough to be hung from its top. Never suspend one enclosure from another to form an array or cluster using these fittings The common practice of using commercially available eye bolts for suspension should only be undertaken with great caution. Eye bolts are strongest along the thread axis. [. . . ] Martin Audio is not liable for consequential damages. This warranty is exclusive and no other warranty is expressed or implied.
