does not interfere with the opera-tor’s view. Mark the three holes in the u
bracket (1) where the monitor will be permanently fastened. Drill three pilot
holes for the bracket. Remove the bracket hinge bolts (11) and the hand ten-
sion knobs (12) fasten the U-bracket to the marked/drill location with three
mounting screws. If a stronger mounting is need or preferred, use three
stainless steel bolts, lock washers and hex nuts. Contact customer service for
ordering.

two tension knobs. Do Not tighten. Hand tight enough to allow free movement
of the monitor. Adjust the monitor up to 30 degrees forward and up to 30 de-
