fluid completely. Do not use thinner, benzine (naphtha) or
alcohol as they may damage the surface of the unit.
Before use
Placement of the unit
High-quality hardened tool stainless-steel is used for the pin-
point feet attached to the bottom of the component.
Although the outer feet may appear loose, the weight of the
unit causes them to become firm and secure. The design
effectively damps and reduces vibration.
< To protect the supporting furniture surface, you may stick the
felt pads supplied with the unit to the bottom of the metal
feet.
