The universal tripod adapter is included
with the PLS 480 SYSTEM. The

can be used separately or together
depending on the job site application.
When using your PLS480 on the floor
or concrete slab, attach the PLS480 to
the combined adapter (top and bottom
components together) by inserting its
1/4 - 20 bolt into the 1/4 - 20 insert on
bottom of the PLS480.
