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.

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.
