You now have the Main Chassis sitting on the 4 feet. This is a good time to
make sure that the table is positioned correctly. If it must be moved slightly or
centered on its stand, do it slowly. Now, peel off the paper on the top of the
main chassis.
We shipped the suspension with air installed. If you need to add
air, use a bicycle pump.
You have the newest HR-X type platter and bearing assembly. Remove the
tape covering the platter bearing and place the platter on the spindle. Carefully
lower the platter down onto the spindle. Spin the platter and check that it is
spinning freely and that there is no wobble.
It is very important that the platter be level. Place a 12" long bubble level
across the platter. Level the platter in two directions, 90 degrees apart.
Rotating the black cone shaped feet on the bottom of the four legs will level the
unit. You must hold the bladders when doing this.
Now place the Flywheel in position. The left side of the TNT 5 has a cutout
where the Flywheel will be centered. Place the motor in its proper location as
shown in the “Proper Layout for Flywheel Usage” diagram. Make sure you
have a level surface of at least 32 inches in length. VPI makes a custom
extended top for the TNT stand to put the TNT-5 on.
