| INSTALLATION | GEOKON
Lower the final sensor into the casing and position the suspension bracket on
top of the casing. It is important that the top rim of the casing be relatively
square to prevent any side interference with the wheel assembly of the top
sensor.
The safety cable can now be tied off at the top of the casing and the signal cable
can be run to the readout location. Readings can be taken immediately after
installation, but it is recommended that the system be allowed to stabilize for a
few hours before recording the zero readings.
