15 MANCHESTER SERIES Rigging Manual
Rigging Pin installation in the MV212 rear mounting plate
This drawing shows the pin location used to set the angle of the cabinet relative to the cabinet above (0 degrees = Parallel).
2.4 Tip Bar, Fly Grid, Single Shackle Plate, and Ground Stack Plate
The Tip Bar has an array of 23 top holes of 20 mm diameter, that allow shackles to be attached. Each hole is marked with a number for identication, with number 1
being at the front, and number 23 at the rear.
The Tip Bar also has 4 lower mounting holes of 12.5 mm diameter that allow the Tip Bar to be mounted to the center spine of the MAN-FG y grid, using 4 captive quick
release pins that are attached to the Tip Bar for this purpose (not shown below).
The MAN-FG y grid center spine has 18 top holes of 12.5 mm diameter that allow the Tip Bar or the single pick point plate to be attached. Each hole is marked with a
number for identication, with number 1 being at the front, and number 18 at the rear.
The MAN-FG y grid center spine also has an "MV212 LOCK" hole (below the number 12 hole), that allows the rear top mounting plate of the MV212 cabinet to be
attached for ying. One captive quick release pin is attached to the MAN-FG y grid center spine for this purpose (not shown below).
The Ground Stack Plate has angle markings as follows: -6, -3, -1, 0, 1, 3, and 6 degrees. It ts into the MAN-FG y grid hole marked "12" using a captive quick release pin
attached to the MAN-FG y grid for this purpose. The top hole of the ground stack plate ts into the rear lower mounting hole of the rst MV212 cabinet. Choose the
appropriate hole of the ground stack plate, to set the angle of the rst MV212 cabinet.
The single shackle plate may be used instead of the Tip Bar, in systems where there is no great tilt angle. It ts to the MAN-FG center spine with two captive rigging
pins, attached to the single shackle plate for this purpose (not shown below).
