To adjust the meter to a hanging position, flip the stand
upwards and over its maximum reach until it is detached
from its hinge. Then flip the stand over so that the stand’s
inner surface is facing the meter’s rear. Now, press the stand
down into its hinge. Follow the step by step pictorial
instructions below.
