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. Figure 2

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.

Two Cabinet Array Application

Permanently bolt two truss/speaker assemblies together using the two side holes of the truss with a ¾” hex bolts and
washers. Capture the hoist ring of each truss with suitable cable or equivalent rigging equipment and bridle to a pear ring
or other suitable link (Figure 4). Be sure that all hardware, fasteners, cables and lifting chains are fitted and secured
before hoisting the truss/speaker array assembly.

When hoisting, lift entire system a

short distance and check each and
every connection thoroughly before
proceeding.

Three Cabinet Array Application

Permanently bolt three truss/speaker
assemblies together using the two side
holes of the truss with a ¾” hex bolt
and washers. Capture the hoist ring of
the two outside trusses with suitable
cable or equivalent rigging equipment
and bridle to a pear ring or other
suitable link (Figure 5). Be sure that all
hardware, fasteners, cables and lifting
chains are fitted and secured before
hoisting the truss/speaker array
assembly.

Four Cabinet Array Application

Permanently bolt four truss/speaker assemblies together
using the two side holes of the truss with a ¾” hex bolt
and washers. Capture the hoist ring of the two left
trusses with suitable cable or equivalent rigging
equipment and bridle to a pear ring or other suitable link
(Figure 6).

Repeat procedure to the other two right trusses then

bridle the two bridles together using a pear ring or other
suitable link (Figure 6). Be sure that all hardware,
fasteners, cables, and lifting chains are fitted and secured
before hoisting the truss/speaker array assembly.

When hoisting, lift entire system a short distance and

check each and every connection thoroughly before
proceeding.

Five Cabinet Array Application

Permanently bolt five truss/speaker assemblies together
using the two side holes of the truss with a ¾” hex bolt
and washers. Capture the hoist ring of the three left
speakers with suitable cable or equivalent rigging Figure 7: Five Cabinet Application
equipment then bridle to a pear ring or other suitable link
(Figure 7).

Repeat procedure to the three right speakers (Figure 7). Be sure that all hardware, fasteners, cables and lifting chains are
fitted and secured before hoisting the truss/speaker array assembly.
When hoisting, lift entire system a short distance and check each and every connection thoroughly before proceeding.

 TR-0750-LT Truss Bar
Instructions for EAW KF750 Loudspeaker Truss
Eyebolt Suspension

This TR-0750-LT 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

Single Cabinet application
Attach one end using suitable rigging gear such as aircraft cables, lifting chain or span sets to each eyebolt using a rated
shackle or other suitable rigging fasteners. Loop the unattached end of the rigging gear over the overhead rigging truss or
beam and attached back to the eyebolt. Repeat for other three eyebolt (Figure 3).

Lift the entire system a short distance and check all hardware, fasteners, and lifting gear in the system to
be sure they are fitted, aimed and secured thoroughly before proceeding.

Two or more Cabinet Array Application

Permanently bolt two truss/speaker assemblies together using the two
side holes of the truss with ¾-10 x 2.5” hex bolts, lock and flat washers
and nylock nut. Attach one end using suitable rigging gear such as
aircraft cables, lifting chain or span sets to each eyebolt using a rated
shackle or other suitable rigging fasteners. Loop the free end of the
gear to the overhead rigging truss or beam and closing the loop to the
other end of the gear (Figure 4 and 5).

Lift the entire system a short distance and check all hardware,
fasteners, and lifting gear in the system to be sure they are
