Location
CAUTION
The load is designed for operation in a horizontal plane
only, with mounting brackets down. Do not operate in
any other position.
Install the Model 8201 or 8203 Termaline Load Resistor in a
location that:
s
Has sufficient room to provide at least six
inches of free space around and above the
unit.
s

Ensures the operation of the load in a horizon-
tal position only, with the handle on top.
Mounting
The load may be used for portable operation or for fixed in-
stallation, that is, it may stand free or may be secured to a
bench or any convenient flat surface. The front and rear fins
are made of heavier gauge material bent outward 90 de-
grees to form mounting flanges. At each corner of these
flanges is a rubber bumper foot attached with an acorn nut.
To fasten the load by means of its base mounting flanges:
1. Remove the four rubber bumpers
2. Fasten the load with four screws. Put one screw
in each of the four 9/32 inch holes.
Note: Use screws up to 1/4 inch diameter.
The holes are arranged in a 5-1/8 x 12-17/32 inch rectangle
(130.2 x 318.3 mm).
