HARD-MOUNTING
To hard-mount the wheel base, first disassemble the two blocks from the underside (lower left picture) using a 3 mm Allen key (not included). The CSL Elite Wheel Base + offers a three-point hard-mount location on the underside (lower right picture):

IMPORTANT: Use only good quality M6 bolts. Choose the correct bolt length to prevent the thread from reaching more than 16 mm into the wheel base. Example: If your table is 20 mm thick, the bolts must not exceed a total thread length of 36 mm! Always use all three hard-mount points as this allows for a proper and stable installation and avoids damage!
