OPERATING ENVIRONMENT
2
&
3
The stand should only be used on level surfaces.
The stand features levelling legs that can compensate for marginal differences in ground level.
The stand must be set up on firm ground capable of taking both the weight of the stand and its load without
any of the wheels sinking in, which could cause the stand to tip over. If the ground is soft, place a board "C"
(fig. 2) under the wheels.
During outside use with a height exceeding 2.5 m (98") or in any situation with windy conditions it is advised to
set up the product utilising anchor wires and or wind brace kit (fig. 3) (Not included. 087WBK sold separately).

i) Rotate the leg counter-clockwise by turning the sleeved section until it stops.
ii) Whilst holding the rubber cover, turn the upper part of the levelling leg clockwise until it reaches the stop.
The levelling leg is now at its shortest position and is ready for attachment to the base.
5. Pull out the locking pin and rotate the wheel assembly to the vertical position (repeat for other two legs) "G"
(fig. 5)
6. Attach the levelling leg to the base by pulling up the safety catch and fastening to location "H" (fig. 5)

8. Turn the levelling legs to raise the stand and level the base. Using the lower two levelling bubbles as a refer-
ence ensure that the bubble does not leave the central marker in order to prevent potential tipping of the
stand and its mounted equipment "J" (fig. 6)
Note: The wheels plate "K" (fig. 6) features 6 hole positions in order to choose the wheel direction.
