5. INSTALLATION
WARNING If the location site of this machine has a polished floor it is recommended
that rubber pads are fitted under the level adjusters to prevent the
machine sliding on the floor.
5-1 Fitting the Header Assembly
The Header Assembly has a forward centre of gravity, so it is important that
at least 
two people are used to fit or remove the Header Assembly.
The fitting position of the Header Assembly is very high, and it is important
that a means of reaching the height safely, without stretching, is available.
(e.g. steps, step stools etc.)
1. Place the Header Assembly on to the monitor cabinet, connect the connectors
and pass the connectors in to the cabinet, slide the header back ensuring that
it engages fully in to the retaining brackets at the front of the monitor cabinet.
2. Fit the 2off M6x25 Hex Head Screws, Spring and Flat washers to retain the
Header Assembly to the cabinet.

5-3 Fitting the Safety Mat
1. Assemble the Floor Safety Mat by fitting the securing plates from underneath,
the support brackets from the top and retaining the assembly together with
the M6 Dome Nuts.
NOTE:-
When the machine is fully assembled and in its final position, lower the 10 level
adjusters, (4 on the monitor cabinet and 6 on the ski assy), with a spanner so that
all castors are raised from the floor by approximately 5mm, and the machine is
level. Tighten the lock nuts with a spanner to ensure that the level adjusters do not
move.
If this machine is installed on a smooth or shiny floor, it is recommended that rubber
slip mats be placed under each adjustable foot to prevent the machine from moving
when being played.
