Lifting the column - minimum 2 people
CAUTION!
Make sure that the counterweight is resting against the assembly pin and
the carriage is down so that the cables are taut.
1
Lift the column up smoothly so that the counterweight lies on the
assembly pin, and attach the wall bracket to the holes in the wall.
WARNING!
The column assembly is heavy. Get assistance and be careful when
erecting the column.
2
Attach the column to the wall with two 10 mm bolts.
3
Check with a water-level that the column is vertical in both
directions.
CAUTION!
Do not remove the rubber band, holding the cable coming out through the
axle because it helps in installing the C-arm by keeping the cables out of
the way.
