Instructions for Setting Up and Using the Couch / Chair Mounting Accessory Kit
This kit contains everything you need to easily use a ButtKicker with most any chair or couch.
Before beginning, please make sure you have the following:
.
•One mounting plate with neoprene disc and
rubber isolator feet.
•Four ¼” x ¾” carriage bolts.
•Four star washers.
•Four locking nuts with nylon inserts.
•Five rubber isolators for use under the
furniture’s other legs.
•Five #10 screws.
•One wrench
•ButtKicker LFE or Concert. Sold separately.
•ButtKicker Power Amplifier, BKA1000-4. Sold
separately.
•A/V processor. Sold separately
•Optional – Philips head screw driver. Not
included.
Attach the ButtKicker to the Mounting Plate:
1. Make sure the mounting plate is sitting on its rubber feet and the neoprene disc is facing up. Set the
ButtKicker over the large hole and line up the holes in the feet of the ButtKicker with the square holes of the
mounting plate.
Note: The ButtKicker will line up with the square holes two different ways. Either way will work.
2. Insert the carriage bolts from the bottom of the mounting plate so that the threads are sticking up through
the ButtKicker’s feet. DO NOT insert the bolts down through the ButtKicker and then through the mounting
plate.
3. Be sure that the square shoulder on each carriage bolt fits into the square hole in the mounting plate.
4. Place one star washer on each bolt and then tighten a nylon inserted nut onto each carriage bolt. A
wrench is provided for your convenience.
Positioning the Mounting Plate with Your Furniture:
•If your furniture only has four legs (or feet), then the mounting plate can be located under a leg at any
corner.
•If your furniture has six or more legs, then the mounting plate ideally should be located under the (a)
center leg on the rear of the furniture. Of course, it can also be located under a leg at any corner.
Note: With longer couches, placing the ButtKicker and mounting plate at one corner will mean that the
person sitting on that end of the furniture may experience slightly more shake from the ButtKicker than
those seated in the center and farthest away seats. This is normal and may vary according to the size, type
and construction of your furniture.
•There may be enough free space under the furniture to hide the ButtKicker “inside” the furniture. You
may have to remove or cut the dust cover to see if this space exists on your furniture.
•If there isn’t enough space under the furniture, the ButtKicker will extend to the side or rear of the
furniture. The mounting plate was designed to make this as unobtrusive as possible.
VERY IMPORTANT – Using the Rubber Isolators Under Your Furniture’s Other Legs:
We cannot stress how important it is to the performance of your system that you use the supplied
rubber isolators under the other legs of your furniture. Regardless of whether the furniture is on a
hardwood, tiled or carpeted floor, on a slab or a floor with a crawl space or basement underneath,
using the supplied rubber isolators will drastically improve the performance of the ButtKicker.
•Start by putting one isolator under each corner leg and then use the rest of the isolators for any
additional legs that are unsupported. The isolators can be slid under the legs without using the screws.
•However, if possible, use the supplied screws to screw the isolators into the legs.
Connecting the ButtKicker to your ButtKicker Power Amplifier and A/V Processor:
•Follow the directions that came with the ButtKicker and ButtKicker Power Amplifier to connect the
ButtKicker to the rest of your home theater system.
