• You may rotate the spike tips in place by using a vice-grip or toothed pli-
ers.
• Lengthen the appropriate spike or spikes (not the Puppy Paw diode on the
set screw) on that lower side until the WATT/Puppy is level.
• If the speaker is leaning to the left, lengthen both Puppy spikes on the right
hand side of the speaker. If the speaker is leaning right, lengthen the left
hand spikes. Lengthen the spikes incrementally, checking and rechecking
the level until the WATT/Puppy is level left to right.
• Place a level on the front to back oriented axis. If it is level, then your
WATT/Puppys are level. If the WATT/Puppys are leaning one way or the
other, following the same process as above, lengthen the appropriate
spikes on the front or rear of the Puppy until the WATT/Puppy is level.
• To find out which spike to lower, grasp the WATT/Puppy channel and gen-
tly rock it back and forth. This will identify the spike that is out of level
from the other three. If there is movement, lengthen the appropriate spike
until the WATT/Puppy sits solidly on the floor.
Removing the Protective Film
To protect the finish of the WATT/Puppy during final manufacture, shipment, and
setup in your listening room, we have applied a removable layer of protective film over
the finish. We recommend that this film be left in place until the speakers are in their
final location in your listening room. Once you have determined their final position,
remove the film by following this procedure:
1. Ensure the speaker surface is room temperature before removing the pro-
tective film. Removing the protective film when the speaker surface is
cold can damage the paint surface.
2. Slowly remove the film from the top down, large sections at a time, gen-
tly pulling the film downward and outward. Tearing the film aggressively
