Chapter 3: Setting Up D-Control 19
Assembling the Stand
After you have prepared the installation space for D-Control, begin by assembling the metal parts of the stand.
To assemble the stand:
1 Place the right and left leg assemblies upright, and at the approximate width of the rear crossbar assembly. Position the legs so
that their crossbar mounting brackets are on the insides of the legs, facing each other as in Figure 7.
2 Lift the rear crossbar assembly into position and slide it onto the crossbar mounting bracket on each leg. (The two sides of the
crossbar are identical, so it does not matter which side faces front.) Position the legs so there is a small gap between the sides of
the crossbar and the inner surface of each leg. The screw holes in the brackets should be visible in the slots on the crossbar.
It is important that you first build the stand slightly wider than its final dimensions, and leave all screws loose enough to
allow the stand legs to move side-to-side relative to the rear crossbar and rails. After you install the D-Control units on the
stand, you will then slide the leg assemblies inward and tighten all screws.
