spIked foot assembly
for Carpeted floors
The Silver RX spiked foot assembly encorporates a spike for use on carpeted floors and also, a
soft polymer pad (for use on wooden or tiled floors).
Please ensure there are no hidden wires under the carpet that could be damaged by the
spikes.
The foot comes fully assembled for use on
carpeted floors. All that is required is fixing into
the bottom of the cabinet. This is achieved by
simply screwing the feet fully into the 4-threaded
insert in the underside of the cabinet. If your
carpet has a very thick pile, remove the soft
polymer pad from the foot to ensure the spike
goes right through the carpet into the floor. With
great care turn your cabinet the right way up.
Place the cabinet in your desired location, and
check that it is level on all sides. If it is slightly
uneven, unscrew the spike at the lowest point
and check again.
Continue this process until
the cabinet is fully level.
Use the locking nut on the
foot to fix the foot in place
and to stop any unwanted
vibrations.

unpaCkIng
Care must be taken at all times when handling the RXW-12 due to the weight of
the product. We recommend a two-person lift wherever appropriate.
A feature of the RXW-12 is the exposed drive unit. Great care must be exercised
at all times to ensure it is not damaged during unpacking and when finally sited in
the room. Any physical damaged caused to the drive unit by not complying with
this requirement will not be covered by warranty.
The mains power cord(s) and feet assemblies are contained separately in the packaging and should
be removed prior to unpacking the product.
To remove the RXW-12 from its carton place some protective material on the floor and having
removed any loose items (mains lead(s) and feet) from the top of the packaging, carefully invert the
carton. Also see the icons printed on the carton. Gradually pull the carton upwards to expose the
subwoofer, which will be presented with its base uppermost. Remove fixing tape from bag and
expose the base/cabinet. Before turning your RXW-12 over so that it is the correct orientation, you
must decide how you will be using the feet:
spiked foot fixing for Wooden/Hard floors
For use on solid floors or where spikes are inappropriate, it is possible to use
the foot without the spike. To use the foot in this manner carefully grip the
knurled portion of the spike and rotate anti clockwise to unscrew the spike
fully.
You may find it easier to first remove the polymer pad so as to gain more
purchase on the spike.
The pad should be replaced before carrying out the levelling operation
previously described.
