The ENC 10/12, ENC 12/14, ENC 14/16, and ENC 16/18 enclosures can be
ordered with mounting brackets for the CM106K tripod. All enclosure models

bracket option. All enclosure models except the ENC 16/18 can be mounted to
the tripod base and leg with the –LM Leg Mount bracket option.

An enclosure ordered with the –MM bracket has a three-piece top and bottom

Attach an enclosure with the –MM mounting bracket to the tripod mast as
follows:

Remove the U-bolts washers and nuts from the brackets.

Position the enclosure against the tripod’s mast (North side recommended).

Install the U-bolts, flat washers, lock washers, and nuts. Tighten the nuts until
the lock washers are compressed.
