You must install the instrument so that it
remains stable in all conditions. Fix the instrument to a platform of your choice using
foundation bolts. The platform can be, for example, concrete or asphalt. Mounting screws and
bolts are included in the delivery as well as a setting tool for the wedge bolts.

ensure safety, follow these instructions, as well as local and state legislation and
regulations during installation. |
