Installing The Tether Bolts
Note: Do not use any tools to tighten the tether caps. Hand tighten only. Over ten-
sioning of the bolts can damage the module.
• Insert the lower midrange module (LMRM) tether bolt through the bot-
tom of the bottom alignment plate, up through the corresponding tether
bolt slot on the module handle. While holding the bolt in place, thread
the tether cap nut onto the bolt and loosely tighten it. Install the HFM and
UMRM tether bolt using the same process. After the two bolts are secured
in place, check to ensure that the alignment spike is still placed properly
in its numbered detent. Symmetrically hand tighten the tether cap nuts.
• Using the same process, insert and symmetrically tighten the tether cap
nuts for the tweeter and upper midrange modules.

• Remove the mechanical diodes and move the nut to about two threads from
the point. This will allow for greater movement when leveling the loud-
speaker system.
• Screw the spikes into the diode until the nut is against the diode. Be care-
ful that the nut does not turn while inserting and threading spikes into the
diode.
Note: Do not tighten these assembled spikes. You will need to unscrew them
when you level the Alexandrias.
• Place the set screw into the other end of the diode with the Allen head
toward the spike. This will ensure that if for any reason you have to re-
