screw provided (Figure 2). Use Allen wrench to tight- en screw onto the flat on the shaft.
Mounting on No. 1206 Stand
1.Set up the 1206 Stand by opening legs and pushing down on the tray. Legs should be stiff and the stand should not wobble.
NOTE! The tristand leg stiffness can be increased or
decreased by the following procedure: Place stand upside down on a flat surface. Unlock tray so legs are loose.
Locate the set screw on the tray leg support on the rear leg.
Loosen the set screw to make the adjustment. To increase stiffness, move the tray leg support up towards the base. To decrease stiffness, move the tray leg down towards the feet.
Tighten the set screw (increasing leg stiffness increases tray tension).
2.Mount machine on the stand using three (3) 3/8″ - 16 x 13/4″ bolts and washers (Figure 3).
