SETTING UP YOUR UC1:
1. With the case open and components removed, begin by inserting the 4 lower
arms (E) into the receiver on the turntable (G). Make sure to insert arms into the
receivers until they have "clicked" into place.
2. Roll coil of tubing to the side of the machine and place it onto the lower arms
centering it onto the turntable.
3. Insert the mast (C) into the vertical receiver in the center of the turntable (G)
making sure that the mast "clicks" into place.
4. Line up key of upright arms (F) and Insert into the appropriate hole in each of the
lower arms (E) to keep the coil centered on the turntable. Turn each upright arm
1/2 turn to secure key in lower arm.
5. Unfold upper arms (D) so that square openings line up. Slide upper arms
over mast so that they create a crossing pattern as shown.
6. Insert the post end of the eyelet arm (B) into the mast (C).
7. Attach the eyelet assembly (A) to the end of the eyelet arm (B) by inserting
the rod end of eyelet assembly into arm's cross-hole and securing with the
cotter pin.
8. Cut off the bands holding the coil together and feed the end of the tubing into
the loop of the eyelet.
9. Your UC1 is now ready to use.
ADJUSTING THE TENSION OF THE UC1 TURNTABLE:
1. Your UC1 is factory adjusted to the proper tension for most applications.
However, it can be adjusted to suit your needs.
2. Disassemble your UC1, leaving at least one of the four lower arms in place.
You MUST remove the eyelet, eyelet arm, and mast to make this adjustment.
3. Insert the included hex key (H) into the screw located in the center of the
turntable, where the mast would normally go.
4. Using an adjustable wrench, hold the nut located underneath the turntable.
5. Turn the adjustment screw clockwise to increase the tension, counterclockwise
to lessen the tension. Using the lower arm to check the drag, adjust the screw
until the desired result is achieved.
