Illustrations and texts are exemplary. Depending on the iPad and USB port, other power supplies or cables may be supplied.
Step 1.1
Use the drilling template to drill the two mounting holes for the screw base and the cable outlet into the carrier material.

Step 1.2 Pass the Lightning USB Cable through the cable outlet.
Step 1.3 Attach the screw base
! Note for substrate wood: Use wood screws, recommended size at least 4×40.
For optimum hold use use the recommended metric screws (M5) with a counterpart nut.

Step 1.5 Connect the standpipe to the screw base by turning the screw to the right. (Required tool: 4mm Allen key)
