1) For 4" and 6" Aimer: loosen the set screws in the locking ring.
Holding the electronics enclosure firmly, loosen the Aimer locking ring using the supplied
C spanner, until the LR560 drops down slightly. The enclosure can then be turned freely.
2) Direct SITRANS LR560 so the antenna is pointed at an angle perpendicular to the
material surface, if possible.
3) When the desired position is reached, re-tighten the locking ring using the C spanner, and
tighten set screws.
4) For the 3" Aimer flange, tapered split washers with pressure rated versions are provided
to keep nuts and bolts perpendicular to the flange surface.
