SECTION 4
Instrument Setup and Storage
Hood Setup
1. Locate the four (4) aluminum channels for the
hood and position them into a square with the
foam facing up. Slide the “U” opening on the
channel end (Fig. 1) and corner bracket
toward the brass eyelets until you feel it latch.
2. Continue with the other two channels until you
have a square frame that is locked tightly in all
four corners.
3. Locate the hood for the frame size you have
assembled.
4. Position a corner seam of the hood onto the
corner of the frame. Stretch the nylon hood to
an adjacent corner until the hood corner
meets the frame corner.
5. Push the elastic cord into the channel along
the side of the frame.
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until the hood assembly
is complete and ready to mount onto the base.
7. Place hood on a table or clean floor with the
base inside the opening. Pull the hood over
the base. Rotate the hood assembly until the
metal cups are above the spring-loaded pins.
8. Locate the hood support rods. Extend the
hood so it is taut and insert one support rod
onto the spring-loaded pin closest to you.
9. Push the support rod down and insert the top
end of the rod into the metal cup on the hood
frame. Fig 1.
10. Install the rod on the opposite side then install
the last two rods.
