1.4 Operating principle
The adapter consists of a fixed rail [R] and a sliding carriage [S].
The sliding carriage features two dedicated hole grids, Locking
pins and corresponding stepped supports.
The rail consists of a slotted hole for moving the sliding carriage
and a fixed hole for aligning and fixing the sliding carriage in
place.
The upper hole grid on the sliding carriage (Þ Red labeled holes
) allows the first XSL TOP cabinet on top of the SUB cabinet to
be set to a fixed tilt angle of –6, –4, –2, 0 or 2°.
For this purpose, the hole of the cabinet's Splay link must be used.
The Splay link hole defines the angle setting and fixes the back of
the cabinet with the help of the stepped supports.
Setting examples
Sliding carriage and Locking pin setting for –6° downtilt
Sliding carriage and Locking pin setting for 2° uptilt
Sliding carriage and Locking pin setting for 0° tilt
