1 Introduction


1.1 COSMO – Modular for Economy and Flexibility

The COSMO line array system was engineered to be an exceptionally fl exible, easily confi gurable solution for professional sound reinforcement applications. It pairs outstanding audio quality with remarkably convenient handling.

With horizontal directivities of 100° (C 6), 80° (C 8), and 60° (C 10), this family of ultra fl exible systems provides the bandwidth needed to cover the most diverse live scenarios. Each cabinet type can be deployed individually and in various combinations with its siblings. The center component is always the COSMO C 8 mid/high unit with 80° horizontal directivity.

100°

C 6

C 8

80°

C 10

60°

The new COSMO Multicell Transformer (MCT) serves up much smoother frequency response, less distortion, and far more uniform throw patterns than its predecessor, 2002's Cohedra

AcousticLens. HK Audio engineers used sophisticated computer simulations and rapid prototyping to develop this ingenious waveguide – a feat unthinkable without these state-of-theart tools to tame the complex physics of sound reinforcement.

The MCT's many narrow channels shift resonances to higher frequencies range beyond the audible range.

All this makes working life much easier for the FOH engineer at the mixing desk. Powerful 6.5", 8" and 10" speakers provide the perfect low midrange support for the COSMO modules' high-frequency range. The three M/H units share the same 60-by-45 cm footprint, so they are very easy to set up and connect. This universal format also brings the hardware accessory count down.

2.5 Software

EASE Focus 3

Simulation data sets are available in GLL format for all COSMO and C SUB series loudspeakers. With EASE Focus 3, you can map out the direct sound for defi ned coverage areas. Free and easy to understand, it is an indispensable tool for planning line arrays.

• Vendor: AFMG Technologies GmbH

• Download it at http://focus.afmg.eu.

• Matching GLL fi les are available at www.hkaudio.com.

EASE 4.4

You can also use these GLL data sets with the industry standard

EASE 4.4 software to simulate other factors beyond the room's acoustics to take into account variables such as the noise fl oor and frequency masking at various levels. This lets you do things like make realistic predictions as to the speech intelligibility in any given room. Another possibility is auralization, where you can model a sound system's performance while taking the room's acoustics into account. This is a great way of giving a less knowledgeable customer an idea of what kind of an audio image can actually be achieved in that venue.

Lake

Lake Controller software provides an interface that lets you control Lab.gruppen PLM+ series power amps, and monitor their status and the connected speaker loads. It serves to monitor the amplifi ers' status and the connected speaker loads. Featuring lots of customizing and control options, this software runs best on wireless tablet PCs. www.labgruppen.com.

Armonía

Powersoft also off ers a professional platform for controlling its

DSP technology. Called ArmoníaPlus, it furnishes everything you need to plan, monitor and fi ne-tune PAs. Download Armonía at www.powersoft-audio.com.

4 Controller Presets

Presets are available for Lake and Armonía controller software, which may be used to operate the components. These presets provide various tools, including compensation fi lters for arrays of various lengths.

C 8 presets

C 8 – FR

C 8 – LC

59 Hz – 19 kHz

80 Hz – 19 kHz

• Standalone M/H units

We recommend the C 8 – LC preset when using standalone M/H units as near-fi lls or the like.

• M/H unit array

• Arrays with added subwoofers

EQ array compensation overlays*

C 8 – 6 to 8 cabinets



* for Lake only

C SUB presets (CF 118, CS 118 and CS 218)

CF 118 – Flat 100 Hz low pass

CF 118 – Boost

CF 118 – Sub Low

CS 118 – Flat

CS 118 – Boost

CS 118 – Sub Low

70 Hz low pass

100 Hz low pass

100 Hz low pass

70 Hz low pass

100 Hz low pass

The C 8 – FR preset is best for arrays consisting entirely of C 8 units. In this case, you should also load the EQ overlay designated for the number of deployed M/H units. This applies to for Lake only.

Armonía provides complete modules, including compensation fi lters, which is why you will not need a selection of EQ overlays.

We recommend the following preset combinations for arrays with added C SUB bass bins:

C 8 fi lter:

• C 8 FR (for CS Flat or CS Boost )

• C 8 LC (for CS Flat or CS Sub Low )

C SUB fi lter:

• CS Flat (for large arrays with 12 or more M/H units)

• CS Boost (for small arrays with up to 12 M/H units or for ground stacks)

• CS Sub Low (for CF 118, CS 118 and CS 218 sub low add-ons)

We recommend the following

M/H-unit-to-subwoofer ratios:

Three C 8 units to two CS/CF 118 bass bins

Three C 8 units to one CS 218 bass bin

COSMO Line Array – Instructions for use Rigging Manual 1.0

1 Notes on Rigging Safety

This symbol, wherever it appears, alerts you to the presence of a crush hazard.

Be sure to perform every step correctly as instructed in the rigging manual to avoid pinch/ crush injuries.

This symbol, wherever it appears, alerts you to the presence of hoisted heavy loads. In the event of a sudden fall or other uncontrolled movement, these loads can cause serious personal injury with potentially fatal consequences and considerable damage to property. Keep people out of the danger zone at all times. Follow the instructions in this manual.

Wear suitable headgear, gloves, and footwear during assembly to protect against mechanical hazards and injuries.

• Rigging hardware

Use the rigging hardware for no purpose other than to set up HK audio speaker cabinets in flown arrays or ground stacks. Do not hoist components other than those that are part of this system. Use HK Audio speaker cabinets only as intended with the original rigging hardware. Use only original replacement parts.

• Prerequisites for installing the COSMO Line Array

Use only 2006/42/EC-compliant, manufacturer-certified lifting accessories or, in countries beyond the 2006/42/EC directive's purview, equivalent devices as specified by local regulations.

Follow these installation instructions. The indicated working load limit cannot be guaranteed and the manufacturer will not be liable for damages in the event of improper installation or the use of unauthorized rigging hardware. The system's working load limit cannot be guaranteed and the manufacturer will not be liable for damages in the event that loudspeakers, rigging hardware, connecting and fastening components, or lifting accessories are modified in any way. Components affecting safety may only be repaired by the manufacturer or authorized agents; otherwise the operating permit will be voided.

Before installing the system, make sure the supporting structure and attachment points are suitable for this purpose and have the required load-handling capacity.

Do not exceed specified limits such as maximum working load limit and curvature and tilt angles. For more on this, please refer to the instructions in section 3, Intended Use.

When hoisting any load, make sure its center of gravity is directly below the attachment point or load-bearing component to protect against the hazard of a swinging load.

The operator is to ensure the individuals tasked with operation, assembly and disassembly, maintenance, inspection, and the like are qualified to perform the given task. Heed the specifications as to the intended use of the system and its components.

Designate only qualified specialists as set out in the rigging manual to assemble and disassemble the system. The operator is to determine and ensure the personnel tasked to do this have the necessary qualifications in keeping with the complexity of the fixed or mobile installation and the applicable local laws, regulations, and engineering rules. Train operating personnel in compliance with the instructions for use.

Provide adequate lighting during assembly and disassembly, cleaning, troubleshooting, maintenance, and repair. Heed Directive 89/654/EEC as transposed into local law.

• Curving in compressed mode

Use only tensioning devices such as ratchet or lashing straps with self-locking mechanisms, for example, hooks with a safety catch, to curve arrays. Make sure the tensioning device is able to gradually release tension, step by step. Keep a watchful eye on the system and beware of sudden and unexpected movements.

• Safe application

Installation is to be carried out by qualified personnel only, and only at attachment points with a sufficient working load limit. Heed the local building code and building regulations.

Do not stand below the system or between the system and walls, fixtures or any other surrounding object when hoisting, lowering, assembling, disassembling or otherwise moving the system. Caution, crush/pinch hazard: Do not reach in between parts of the system when hoisting and lowering it. Keep a watchful eye on the system and beware of sudden and unexpected movements.

Wear PPE (personal protective equipment) to protect hands and feet when assembling and disassembling the system. Everyone in the vicinity when setting up and tearing down, curving, or troubleshooting flown arrays is to wear protective headgear.

Use only suitable climbing aids such as ladders, scaffolds and the like. The sole responsibility for seeing to this lies with installing company.

The operator is obligated to allow only those persons to work with the rigging hardware who are:

• at least 18 years old

• physically and mentally able

• familiar with the basic rules of industrial safety and accident prevention

• trained to perform the given tasks. The same applies to assembly, disassembly, operation, maintenance, troubleshooting, maintenance, and inspection.

If there are signs of an approaching thunderstorm when setting up systems outdoors, determine if it is safe to do so and refrain from doing so if it is unsafe. If a thunderstorm arrives, you may have to use the system to assist with evacuation. Stop all work on the system, ensuring no one touches conductive parts, and clear the area. Seek cover or a safe area, and continue monitoring weather forecasts.

Do not use the system or its components to hoist and secure people.

Clearly designate the responsibilities of personnel tasked to perform activities such as transporting, storing, putting into service, installing, dismantling, operating, maintaining, repairing, inspecting, and disposing of the system, and ensure the designated individuals are qualified to do so. If personnel lack the necessary qualifications, this work may be carried out under the supervision of qualified personnel in cases of extreme urgency.

Immediately rectify defects and other damage that may impair safety.

Regularly check personnel for work safety awareness.

When attaching the rigging frame without a pick-point adapter, always do so with two suitable shackles fastened to the center perforated rails. Always use the pick-point adapter when attaching the rigging frame to a single load line.

Attach hardware at an angle no greater than 60° when using two load lines. The wider the lines are splayed, the greater the force exerted, especially when these lines are short.

Never exceed lifting accessories' working load-versus-angle limit.

Secure fixed and mobile installations – in this case, speakers with rigging hardware – with two independent devices to prevent them from falling. You may dispense with this secondary safety device or arrest wire in cases where the attaching device is intrinsically safe, requires tools to unfasten, and is secured with a locking mechanism to prevent it

- 23 from disengaging on its own. Heed the applicable local laws, regulations, and engineering rules. Install safety features so as to ensure components cannot drop any distance.

Safeties must be able to catch accessories or parts that are loose or may become loose.

Heed local regulations when using fasteners, attaching devices and lifting accessories.

Factor potential dynamic forces (‘jerk' forces) into the equation when determining the proper size and load-bearing capacity of fastening devices.

Ensure all components in the load line – shackles and other lifting accessories, fasteners, tensioning devices, hoisting equipment, load-bearing equipment, load-bearing structures, and the like – are suited to the purpose and rated for the working load limits need to lift and hold the system in place. The area below the system is off limits; people may only enter it if all components in the load line are designed to be intrinsically safe.

Components that are not expressly intended for overhead use above people may be suitable if they hold a load no greater than half of the specified working load limit.

Observe the applicable local laws, regulations, and engineering rules.

Store materials securely on a stable surface. Keep fire extinguishing equipment and passageways clear and accessible, particularly emergency escape and rescue routes.

Do not step or climb on the system and its components.

If a flown system could be exposed to wind, use at least two suitable fasteners to secure it so as to prevent twisting and other unintentional movement. Consult the rigging manual to learn more about this. Make sure these fasteners exert no more force than necessary to prevent the system from moving significantly at safe operating wind speeds.

Do not exert excessive force.

Do not deploy the system at unsafe wind speeds beyond the maximum allowable limit.

Remove or lower and secure the system before the wind reaches wind force 8 or gusts at 20 m/s. Plan, coordinate and document these measures. Constantly monitor weather forecasts.

The wind speed limit may be lower for the stage, PA tower or other primary supporting structure. If so, be sure to abide by it.

If the wind speed limit for a stationary or mobile system is exceeded, clear the danger zone and close off the wider surroundings. The system may not be dismantled at winds exceeding the limit.

• Speaker stands

Be sure to observe speaker stands' working load limit. Note that for reasons of design and construction, most speaker stands are approved to bear centric loads only; that is, the speakers' mass has to be precisely centered and balanced. Ensure speaker stands are set up stably and securely. Take appropriate added measures to secure speaker stands, for example, when:

• the floor or ground surface does not provide a stable, secure base

• they are extended to heights that impede stability

• high wind pressure may be expected

• there is the risk that they may be knocked over by people

Special measures may become necessary as precautions against unsafe audience behavior.

Do not set up speaker stands in evacuation routes and emergency exits. Ensure corridors are wide enough and put proper barriers and markings in place when setting speaker stands up in passageways. Mounting and dismounting are particularly hazardous tasks.

Use aids suitable for this purpose. Observe the applicable local laws, regulations, and engineering rules when doing so.


• Ground stacks

Stack speakers carefully so as not to damage or impair the components' physical integrity:

• Stack speakers on a level and firm floor or ground surface to ensure sufficient stability.

• If you wish to curve the stack to provide near-fill or bleacher coverage, make sure the stack's center of gravity remains well within the rigging frame.

• Secure the ground stack to prevent it from tipping.

• Do not stack more than the designated maximum number of speaker cabinets.

• Use the adjustable feet only to level the system. Make sure the base does not incline in any direction.

• Use the C-M20 sub adapter to prevent slippage.

• Improper use

Improper use of rigging frames and incorrect handling of this load-carrying equipment can pose a serious danger.

Never

• lift loads with a center of gravity that is not directly below, perpendicular to, and in line with the pickup point, or exert diagonal force on suspended loads

• use lifting equipment to forcibly dislodge stuck or immovable loads

• step on any part of the system

• carry, lift or secure people with parts of the system

• climb up the system

• strike, knock or dent the rigging frame or other parts of the system

• remain below the system or in the danger zone when it is moved, raised or lowered

• perform repairs on parts of the system other than those expressly permitted by the manufacturer

• exceed the system's and any other constituent components' working load limits

• operate the system in or with an unauthorized configuration, curvature or tilt angle

• use the rigging frame to suspend non-system speaker cabinets or other loads

• install the system with improperly or incompletely connected components

• use damaged components

• install the system to unstable structures or structures with insufficient load-bearing capacity

• install or operate the system at excess wind speeds or temperatures, or in the event of thunderstorms

• expose components to harmful substances such as acids and alkalis

• operate the system in areas with a potentially hazardous explosive atmosphere

• transport or store the system so as to expose it to heat, moisture, excessive mechanical stress, or other destructive forces

• modify the system or its components without the manufacturer's express consent

Serious dangers associated with improper use include:

• severe-to-fatal injuries caused by one or all components of the system falling or tipping

• severe-to-fatal injuries when people are crushed between the system and surrounding objects

• severe-to-fatal injuries when people fall

• severe-to-fatal injuries caused by lightning during thunderstorms

• injuries when limbs are caught between parts of the system

• injuries caused by the sharp edges of a damaged system

• injuries caused by colliding with or being struck by parts of the system

Always keep the area below the system clear of people, unless all of the following conditions are met:

Supporting structures, hoisting equipment, hoisting accessories, fasteners, and all other components used with the system must be suitable for overhead operation.

All components that are part of and used with the system must be in safe operating condition and have been inspected and verified by qualified personnel.

Do not move the system over people. Operate the system overhead people only when it is stationary.

Do not use the CRF-PB pull-back frame as a load-bearing device.

• Inspection and maintenance

HEADS UP! Upon installation, inspect the flown array consisting of rigging hardware and speakers to make sure it is securely attached. The operator of stationary or mobile speaker systems is obliged to regularly inspect or have a qualified party regularly inspect all components in compliance with the applicable local laws, regulations, and engineering rules, and to have any damage repaired immediately. We strongly advise keeping log books or the like to document all inspections.

Be sure to take into account structures and surfaces' stability and working load limit when deploying speakers outdoors permanently or for longer periods – in particular, the effects of wind and temperature and the added load of snow and ice.

The operator is to carry out a risk assessment for the given application. Be sure to also assess the components and personnel's suitability, taking into account the given operating conditions and interactions with the working environment.

The operator is to arrange for the following inspections:

• Prior to the first use and regularly thereafter, a qualified/competent person is to inspect the rigging hardware's individual parts and the components to be deployed to make sure they are in safe operating condition.

• In the event of a fall, overloaded system components, or other unusual incidents that inflict damage, the operator is to arrange for a qualified person to perform an ad hoc inspection of the affected components.

Heed the applicable local laws, regulations, and engineering rules as to the type, timing and scope of inspections, taking into account the given operating conditions.

The following criteria are to be included in the scope of inspections conducted prior to the first use, at regular intervals, and after unusual incidents that inflict damage:

Condition, damage, cracks, deformation, corrosion, function, operability, wear, detachable connectors' fastening and securing action, the effectiveness of locks and stops, the completeness of connecting elements, the legibility of the type label and working load limit.

The interval between regular inspections is not to exceed one year. Be sure to document inspections.

Also have a competent person inspect rigging hardware components for visible damage, wear, proper function and the legibility of markings, and visually confirm their operating reliability prior to each use.

If the inspector finds defects that impair safety or markings that are no longer clearly legible, take this equipment out of circulation and do not use it again until it has been properly repaired.

Qualified personnel is to inspect hoists, lifting accessories, fasteners and other components used in connection with the rigging hardware in compliance with local regulations and the given manufacturer's specifications. This inspection is to be carried out at least once a year by qualified persons, and by competent persons prior to each installation.

Do not expose components to mechanical stress, moisture and heat during transport and storage.

Use only approved substances for cleaning as set out in section 3, Intended Use. Protect components against harmful substances such as acids and alkalis.

The system's components are to be repaired by the manufacturer or by a specialized company authorized by the manufacturer to do so.

- 24 -

• Disassembly

The array may be brought into a state of unstable equilibrium during disassembly. For this reason, relieve the tension on load-bearing equipment and lower hoisting equipment only to the extent necessary to remove one component at a time.

When releasing tensioning straps that curve an array, keep people out of the array's potential range of motion until the fastener is fully released.

• Hearing protection

Professional loudspeaker systems can produce harmful volume levels. Even prolonged exposure to seemingly harmless levels starting at about 95 dBA SPL can cause permanent hearing loss. We recommend that everyone who is exposed to high volume levels produced by loudspeaker systems wears professional hearing protection (earplugs or earmuffs).

2 Planning Arrays

• Acoustic modeling with EASE Focus 3

Before deploying a COSMO line array, it is a very good idea to plan its setup with EASE Focus 3. This simulation software lets you map specific areas to be covered or to be left uncovered by individual sound sources. Its views show you the directivity, SPL, throw patterns, and signal-to-noise ratios for the various frequency ranges. With this information, you can make a general prediction about the COSMO line array's ability meet the given application's acoustical requirements.

The software clearly displays the M/H units and their set angles once you align them as you see fit in the simulation. We recommend taking a printout or screenshot of these angles with you when you go to set up the array.

This does not apply to larger arrays with more than ten M/H units. Their overall angle including tilt may not exceed 76° .

• Examples setups with an overall °angle of up to 76°

Top angle

0°

Top angle max. 8°

Bottom max. 76°

Bottom max. 68°

0° tilt angle + 76° floor angle = 76° overall angle 8° tilt angle + 68° floor angle = 76° overall angle

• Mechanical limits in EASE Focus 3

The CRF-60 rigging frame can carry up to fourteen C 8s; the CRF-80 up to twenty C 8s. The rigging hardware is designed for common I-,

J- and C-curved arrays.

The CRF-60 and CRF-80 rigging frames are designed for up to 10° tilt. You'll get a warning message from EASE Focus 3 if you exceed this maximum angle.

Up to ten C 8 M/H units, you can configure the array with any angle between the M/H units.

Heads up: EASE Focus 3 does not check for compliance with the specifi ed 76° overall angle. A warning message will not pop up if you exceed it.

The software checks for the array's total weight limit. A warning message will pop up if your simulated rig exceeds it.

Please note that this simulation takes only the speakers and frame into account. The actual weight may be far higher with cords, motors, straps, steel cables, and the like adding to the load. Always check the given attachment point's working load limit.

Recommendation: Check the array's actual angles with a measuring tool while it is accessible. Cables and ropes may change the angles somewhat, so they may not be exactly the same as in the simulation.

• Ground stacks

Stack no more than six C 8s on the ground using the CRF-60 or CRF-80, and no more than three C 8s with the CRF-PB. EASE Focus 3 will not let you exceed this number in a simulation.

5 Connecting Hardware and Curving

Arrays

5.1 General information on connections

Flown arrays

A three-point system serves to connect COSMO line array's M/H units and rigging hardware. Two front-side, top and bottom attachment points connect the front of the components. The rigging hardware for the rear load line consists of an angle plate and fl ap at the back each M/H unit.

5.2 Compressed mode vs. fi xed mode

Compressed mode

When rigging in compressed mode, fi rst set up the line array at a 0° angle with the tilt of the individual M/H units preset on the angle plate. Then angle the array by tightening the C-STR tensioning to exert force on the pull-back frame.

Fixed mode

In fi xed mode, the individual parts are connected at a fi xed angle, so you do not need a tensioning strap.

Flap

The fl ap links the individual components and is always attached to the angle plate of the bottom M/H unit in compressed or fi xed mode. The M/H units may be tilted by up to 10° in 1° steps.

A four-point system without a tilt option serves to attach the

CF 118 subwoofer to the CRF-80.

Transport

Store and transport the M/H units at a 0° angle on the C-WB wheel board. This way, you can connect the package of stowed M/H units directly to the rigging frame in compressed mode for fast, easy assembly by just one person. All loads are to be lifted by a chain hoist.

In ground stacks

Connect individual components in ground stacks to each other in fi xed mode. The M/H unit's fl ap attaches directly to the rigging frame, to the C-GSA ground stack adapter, or to the angle plate of the COSMO M/H unit below it.

6 Curving in Compressed Mode

2 Connect the chain hoist or other hoisting equipment to the

C-PPA's shackle.

Heads up: Setting up and tearing down arrays can be dangerous. People may get hurt and property damaged if the rig or parts thereof fall, move in unexpected ways, or are improperly assembled and disassembled. Make sure quick-release pins, shackles and all other connecting components in the load line are properly engaged and secured to prevent them from loosening.

Wear suitable protective headgear, gloves and footwear when assembling and disassembling the array.

The following instructions and illustrations apply to both the CRF-60 and CRF-80.

Note: These instructions for curving an array in compressed mode assume the mid/high units are mounted on the C-WB wheel board.

1 Attach the C-PPA pick-point adapter by inserting its two quickrelease pins into the desired positions in the rigging frame's center mounting rail.

3 Lift the rigging frame until there is suffi fi rst C-WB wheel board to slide under it.

Heads up: You may dispense with a secondary safety device or arrest wire in cases where the attaching device is intrinsically safe, requires tools to unfasten, and is secured with a locking mechanism to prevent it from disengaging on its own. Be sure to heed the applicable local laws, regulations, and engineering rules.

4 First remove the C-WB's cover; then connect the top M/H unit to the rigging frame by inserting the two quick-release pins on the frame into the attachment points.

8 Setting Up a CF 118 Array


Note: Make sure the fl ap is in the parking position.

2 Lift the rigging frame until there is suffi

CF 118 subwoofer to slide under it.


You need two CRF-80s to set up arrays with CF 118 subwoofers – one to serve as a rigging frame and one as an adapter frame between the subwoofer and M/H unit.

1 Attach the C-PPA pick-point adapter by inserting its two quick-release pins at the desired position in the rigging frame's center mounting rail. Connect the chain hoist or other hoisting equipment to the C-PPA's shackle.


3 Connect the rigging frame to the CF 118 using the four attachment points.

4 Follow the same steps to mount all other subwoofers required for the array below the suspended subwoofer.

5 Use the four attachment points at the bottom of the subwoofer to connect the second CRF-80 that is to serve as the adapter frame.

Note: The shackle for securing the tensioning strap is only required for the adapter frame (see step 6 above).


- 38 -


6 Now connect all M/H units required for the array to the adapter frame as described in sections 5 and 6 of this rigging manual.


Heads up: Please bear in mind that the working load limit is and will remain 700 kg. Using two CRF-80 rigging frames does not double the WLL.




- 39 -


9 Setting Up Ground Stacks

Heads up: Be sure to set the ground stack on a fi rm surface and secure it to keep it from tipping.

Heads up: Setting up and tearing down ground stacks can be dangerous. People may get hurt and property damaged if the stack moves in unexpected ways or is improperly assembled and disassembled.

Make sure quick-release pins, shackles and all other connecting components are properly engaged and secured to prevent them from loosening.

Heads up: Make sure the ground stack's center of gravity remains within the base. Always secure the ground stack to prevent tipping.


The CS 118, CS 218 and CF 118 subwoofers serve as the base for ground stacks. M/H units may be tilted at +2°/0°/-2° angles using the CRF-80 and CRF-60 rigging frames. If you need to tilt speakers further to aim them, you can use the optional C-GSA ground stack adapter to set larger angles from -6° to -20°. You can also use the

CRF-PB pull-back frame for a ground stack. See section 9.4 for more on this.

Danger!

10 Disassembling Flown Arrays

10.1 Disassembling a compressed array


1 Lower the array to a convenient working height.

Make sure the C-WB is on secure footing before you move on to the next step.

5 Disconnect the top M/H unit of the stack that you want to roll away from the array.

6 Roll the C-WB out of the danger zone and connect the top M/H unit to the C-WB's cover. The loaded

C-WB is now ready to go.

7 Repeat steps 3 through 6 until you have disassembled the entire array.

10.2 Disassembling a fi xed array

Heads up: Make sure no one is in the danger zone designated above when you release the tensioning strap.

2 Release the tensioning strap step by step until the array is perpendicular to the ground and the rear load is fully distributed across the link pins. Remove the CRF-PB together with the tensioning end of the tensioning strap.


Note: These instructions for disassembling a fi xed array assume that all M/H units are disconnected one at a time. Easy, safe disassembly requires at least two people.

1 Lower the array to a convenient working height

2 Starting with the lowest M/H unit, remove the fi x pin from the angle plate and the two pins from the front attachment points. This disconnects the M/H unit from the array so you can set it on a suitable means of transport such as a C-WB.

Note: This is a buddy-system job – you need two people to do it.

3 Repeat step 2 until you have removed all M/H units. Keep lowering the array to a convenient working height as you progress.

Recommendation: You can also take down several mid/high units in one go with the C-WB wheel board. See section 10.1 for more on this.

3 Set the angle pins of all M/H units within your reach at this working height to 0°. This connects the

M/H units to each other at the 0° angle required for fi xed mode.

4 Remove the C-WB's cover and place it below the array. Lower the array until the lowest M/H unit rests on the C-WB. Attach this M/H unit to the C-WB using the quick-release pins.

Recommendation: You can attach the C-WB to the suspended M/H unit if the fl oor is uneven.
