DANGER: In order to avoid injury or damage to the machine due to mis-operation, ensure that the voltage of the mains in supply is 220-240volt AC. Also, in order to prevent possible electric shocks, be sure that the machine is connected to the mains in supply with a securely connected earthed plug.
1-1 Installing the Sign Assembly For your convenience, the sign assembly has already been fitted to the tower unit. NOTE: The weight of the Sign Assembly (not including the sign board) is 32kg. The centre of gravity of the Sign Assembly is to the front , making it unstable, and as assembly involves lifting the Sign Assembly above head height, at least two people should be used to install the Sign Assembly.
1-2 Installing the Sign Boards (L), (R) The overall height of the machine can be adjusted by altering the position at which the sign boards are fitted. Normal Height (Total height: 2,200mm) Bring the Sign Boards (L), (R) close to the fixing position, and connect the connectors.
1-3 Connecting the Seat Assemblies to the Tower Assembly Insert the seat assembly from the side of the tower unit so that the front legs of the tower unit are underneath the seat assembly.
