STEP 7:
Place the top plate on top of the four upright
pillars.
Align the countersunk holes (circled in
RED
in the image to the left) with the
corresponding threaded bolt holes in the
tops of the pillars.
Use two countersunk head bolts per upright
pillar.
Insert the bolts through the
corresponding holes in the top plate, and
into the appropriate threaded holes in the
top of each pillar.
Tighten the bolts securely, and once all
eight bolts are in place, check their
tightness once more.
STEP 5:
Identify the top plates. These are easily
distinguished from the base plates, as they
have countersunk bolt holes in the top
surface.
Select one of them, and set aside the
remaining top plate for the second stand.
The surface WITH the countersunk bolt
holes must face UP.
STEP 6:
Identify the countersunk head bolts. Select
eight of them, and set aside the remaining
eight for the second stand.
STEP 8:
Identify the eight adjustable spikes, locking
nuts and dome head nuts.
Select four of each, and reserve the
remaining parts for the second stand.
