INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE

The Meyer Sound QuickFly systems are an assembly of mechanical devices, and are therefore subject to wear and tear over

prolonged use, as well as damage from corrosive agents, extreme impact, or inappropriate use.

BECAUSE OF THE SAFETY ISSUES INVOLVED, USERS MUST ADOPT AND ADHERE TO A SCHEDULE OF REGULAR IN

SPECTION AND MAINTENANCE. IN TOURING APPLICATIONS, KEY COMPONENTS MUST BE INSPECTED BEFORE EACH

USE.

Such inspection includes examination of all load-bearing components for any sign of undue wear, twisting, buckling,

cracking, rusting, or other corrosion. In regard to rust and corrosion, the main components of a QuickFly system are either

protected by an exterior coating or made from stainless steel, which is impervious to rust and resistant to most corrosive

ﬂuids. Nevertheless, normal use and shipping vibrations can wear through the protective coatings, and extremely corrosive

ﬂuids (such as battery acid) can cause severe damage with prolonged exposure even to protected parts. Particular atten-

tion should be given to screws, bolts, and other fasteners to make certain the ﬁttings are tight and secure. Metal seams and

welds should be examined for any sign of separation or deformation. Meyer Sound strongly recommends that written docu-

mentation be maintained on each QuickFly system, noting date of inspection, name of inspector, points of system checked,

and any anomalies discovered.

Annual Comprehensive Examination and Test Program

In addition to routine checks on the road for touring systems, Meyer Sound also recommends a careful, comprehensive

system examination and testing “at home” in the warehouse or other appropriate location at regular intervals. Such at home

examinations and tests should occur at least once a year, and should include a careful inspection of each component under

ideal lighting conditions, and then a ﬁnal comprehensive check of the entire system after it has been ﬂown.

If any anomalies or defects are discovered that could possibly affect the safety or integrity of the system, affected parts or

subsystems should be replaced in their entirety before that part of the system is ﬂown again.

REPLACEMENT PARTS

Any component found to be defective, or any safety-related component you even suspect might be defective, should be re-

placed with the equivalent, approved part. Parts speciﬁc to a QuickFly system should be ordered directly from Meyer Sound.

No attempt should be made to substitute what appears to be equivalent or “mostly the same” generic replacements. Some

parts used in QuickFly systems are identical to those used in other rigging applications. To the best of our knowledge, most

of these suppliers are reputable and their products are reliable. However, Meyer Sound has no way of assuring the quality of

products made by these various suppliers. Therefore, Meyer Sound is not responsible for problems caused by components

that were not supplied by Meyer Sound.

TRAINING

QuickFly systems are relatively straightforward and easy to use. However, they should only be used by persons trained in the

use of loudspeaker rigging systems who have mastered key points of assembly, rigging and ﬂying. Users should read this

manual in its entirety before attempting to deploy any QuickFly system. You may make additional copies of this manual as

necessary for in-house use; copies may not be made for any other purpose.

CAUTION: All Meyer Sound products must be used in accordance with local, state, federal and

industry regulations. It is the owner’s and/or user’s responsibility to evaluate the reliability of any

rigging method for their application. Rigging should be carried out only by experienced professionals.

CAUTION: Always use properly rated rigging hardware.

CAUTION: It is important to inspect rigging hardware regularly and replace worn or damaged

components immediately.
