ASSEMBLY

Remove the contents of the carton and make sure that you have all the parts.

Fasten the base to the first Column Surround. You will use the 1/4-20" Phillips Pan Head screws. Making sure that the top speaker grille is in place (CS-35, CS-29, CS-22 only), turn the speaker over so that the two threaded screw inserts on the bottom of the pedestal are facing upward.

Use two 1/4 - 20 x 1" Phillips Pan Head screws to attach the pedestal to the base. You will first need to remove the screws that have

already been mounted in the speaker at the factory. Discard these screws and use the 1/4 - 20 x 1" Philips screws, making sure that they are securely fastened so that the stand is stable.

Note that there is a recess at the bottom of the back baffle of the Column Surround cabinet just above the point where the base is attached. When the base is attached, this forms a channel that can be used for speaker wire routing.

Do not remove the 4 screws located at the rear of the Column Surround (see diagram).

Repeat these instructions to assemble the second stand.
