parts.
3. To assemble the base, start by attaching two legs
640 mm long (A) to a crossbar
335 mm (B), as shown in the figure below. To the
mounting the base use the 24 screws 5/16 ’’ x 16 mm,
24 5/16 ’’ nuts and 24 8.5 mm washers. Do not tighten the
nuts and bolts completely at this point.

4. Repeat the operation described above, in order to 
obtain two sets with two legs and a 335 mm lower 
crossbar.
5.  Join  the  two  assemblies  already  assembled  (A) 
through the lower cross bars of 495 mm (B), as shown in 
the figure below. Do not tighten the nuts and bolts 

completely at this point.

Note: At this point, the assembly will be a little
oscillating. Have an assistant to hold the assembly in 
place while you fasten the nuts and bolts.
6. Attach the 245 mm top crossbars (A) to the assembly. 
Then  attach  the  410  mm  upper  crossbars  (B)  to  the 
assembly in order to obtain the result on top of the page.

7. Check that there is enough space for the screws that 
secure the machine to the base to pass through the holes 
located in the upper crossbars.

NOTE: Steel materials occasionally "work"
after manufacture, making it difficult to align parts without a
little effort. Don't be surprised if the base
requires a little "effort" to fit in.
8. Tighten all screws and nuts on the base.

9. Insert the rubber feet (A) into the bottom of the

legs (B), as shown in the following figure.

10. Place the Main Unit on the base. Connect them using 
the 4 3/16 ’’ x 33 mm screws, 4 3/16 ’’ nuts and 4 5.5 mm 
washers, as shown in the following figure.
