Check whether distances B, C and D are equal to distance A (fig. 1 ). The most accurate way is not to measure this
distance between the adjustable legs but between the bottoms of the frames (approx. 12 cm above floor level).
If necessary temporarily fix this distance with a wooden slat fixed to the frame using glueing clamps.
Now measure both diagonals E/F (approx. 12 cm above floor level). These must be equal (walls are then perpendicular
to each other).
Check the frame both horizontally and vertically with a long (min. 1 m) spirit level as described. If necessary adjust the
adjustable legs.
When the frame is aligned the legs can be screwed tight to the floor (detail A). To do this use a 10 mm bit to drill through
the holes in the legs through to the floor.
Note: there may be no underfloor heating in the area to be drilled!
Fit the plugs (diameter 1 0x50) and screw the legs tight to the floor with the coach bolt 8x50.
If the floor cannot be drilled into, the frame can be adhered to the floor with polymer cement.
Make sure that the frame parts are correctly positioned and that they cannot move during the drying time of at least 8
hours.
Use glueing clamps or other means to temporarily fix the frame as necessary.
With large cabins it is advisable when fitting the roof elements to use the slats and glueing clamps mentioned in point 4
to prevent the parallel sides of the U-setup from moving out of line while fitting the roof elements.
