Rigging System Seminars

We offer a seminar on how to operate your counterweight system during shows and set ups. The seminar is performed on your stage with special emphasis on safety and how to avoid runaways. This class usually takes between 2 and 3 hours depending on interest and level of participation. We will hand out up to 20 copies of a 5 to 7 page operation manual with the talk.. We generally like to limit this session to 20 people with demonstration by 1 or 2 of the attendees. There is also some time devoted to inspection for maintenance.
