Installation of the mirrorball-motor and the mirrorball
Please consider the EN 60598-2-17 and the respective national norms during the
installation! The installation must only be carried out by an authorized dealer!
The installation of the mirrorball has to be built and constructed in a way that it can hold 10 times the weight
for 1 hour without any harming deformation.
The installation must always be secured with a secondary safety attachment, e.g. an appropriate catch net.
This secondary safety attachment must be constructed in a way that no part of the installation can fall down
if the main attachment fails.
When rigging, derigging or servicing the fixture staying in the area below the installation place, on bridges,
under high working places and other endangered areas is forbidden.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by an
expert before taking into operation for the first time and after changes before taking into operation another
time.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by an
expert after every four year in the course of an acceptance test.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by a
skilled person once a year.
Attachment
The rotary motor should be installed outside areas where persons may walk by or be seated.
IMPORTANT! OVERHEAD RIGGING REQUIRES EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE, including (but not limited to)
calculating working load limits, installation material being used, and periodic safety inspection of all
installation material and the mirrorball. If you lack these qualifications, do not attempt the installation yourself,
but instead use a professional structural rigger. Improper installation can result in bodily injury and.or
damage to property.
The motor must only be installed in an absolutely horizontal position at a vibration-free, oscilation-free and
fire-resistant location. By using a water-level, make sure that the motor is installed absolutely horizontally
and that the motor axle points exactly to the bottom.
The motor and the mirrorball have to be installed out of the reach of people.
If the motor shall be lowered from the ceiling or high joists, professional trussing systems have to be used.
The motor must never be fixed swinging freely in the room.
Caution: Mirrorballs may cause severe injuries when crashing down! If you have doubts concerning the
safety of a possible installation, do NOT install the motor!
Before attaching the device, make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point load of 10 times
the device's load (e.g. maximum load 3 kg - point load 30 kg).
The mirrorball motor must always be installed via all fixation holes. Do only use appropriate screws and
make sure that the srews are properly connected with the ground.
The durability of the installation depends very much on the material used at the installation area (building
material) such as wood, concrete, gas concrete, brick etc. This is why the fixing material must be chosen to
suit the wall material. Always ask a specialist for the correct plug/screw combination indicating the maximum
load and the building material.
