C. CKW INDICATOR MOUNTING

When purchased as an Indicator only configuration, the CKW Indicator is supplied with a Wall/Table mounting Bracket.

The bracket allows the Indicator to be mounted to a vertical wall surface or to a table or other appropriate flat horizontal
surface.

For best performance, the bracket should be mounted to a solid surface using appropriate hardware, (not supplied).

The sides of the Wall/table mount bracket contain slots that allow the user to adjust the angle of the Indicator for best
viewing. The bracket has two sets of slots. One slot is utilized in the wall mount position, the other in the table mount
position. A separation between the two slots prevents the Indicator from falling excessively in either direction in the event that
the adjustment knobs are not fully secured.

When purchased, the Indicator and bracket are assembled in the wall mount position. To change the assembly to the table
mount position, remove the two side adjustment knobs, reposition the indicator to a perpendicular orientation to the bracket,
reinstall the side adjustment knobs.

The mounting holes in the bracket are of a teardrop shape that will allow for easy removal after mounting. One mounting
hole in the bracket has a double-sided tear drop shape. By installing a screw at the furthest edge of this hole, the bracket
can be made to have a more permanent and secured mounting, (see Figure C-1).

The mounting holes will accommodate up to 6 mm (1/4") bolts or screws. The head diameter should be no less then 9mm
(0.35"). When mounting into solid material the hardware should be at least 25mm (1") in length.

When mounting the Indicator bracket to hollow wallboard or masonry materials, first install appropriate anchoring hardware
into the material.

The Indicator can weigh up to 3.2 kg (7 lbs) with included options. The mounting hardware should be capable of
supporting well in excess of this amount.

Use the mounting bracket as a template for marking hole positions on the surface where the Indicator is to be mounted.
Dimensions are also given in Figure C-1 to locate the holes without using the bracket as a template. Drill pilot holes for the
hardware that are appropriate for the bolt or screw size being used.

After mounting the Indicator, loosen the adjustment knobs, position the Indicator angle for best viewing from the operator’s
position, retighten the adjustment knobs. Also check that the pivot screw located behind the adjustment knob does not
become excessively loose after several angle adjustments, retighten as necessary.
