Setup and Assembly
Unpacking
Open the shipping box carefully and stow away all included foam pieces and protective covers. Store
them for re-use.
The M1 should never be shipped in any other container than the factory-provided box or a custom
manufactured protective case.
Placement
The M1 controller requires a stable mounting position that provides support for all 4 rubber feet on the
bottom of the console.
Place the console carefully onto the surface and fold open the attached screen.
Apply some weight with a hand on the rubber hand rest when operating the hinge mechanism. The
hinges are strongly damped and the controller could tip over if the screen is not opened carefully.
