BOX CONTENTS

ASSEMBLING THE EK-LOOP ANGLED BRACKET

EK-Loop Angled Bracket base piece has four slot holes that allow adjustability. Larger slot holes will enable adjusting of the bracket’s position (50 mm on each side). Side pieces can be screwed into the base through one of the slots or both of them.
Smaller slot holes on the side allow for adjusting the position of the bracket on the radiator.
For the assembly of the EK-Loop Angled Bracket – 120/140 mm, use M4 x 4 DIN 7984 screws (as shown in the picture). Side parts already have threaded holes, so there is no need for additional washers and nuts.

INSTALLING THE EK-LOOP ANGLED BRACKET DIRECTLY INTO THE CASE

EK-Loop Angled Bracket – 120/140 mm can be mount directly into the case when there is a place for a 140 mm fan.
The 140 mm format FLT reservoir can also be mounted onto the EK-Loop Angled Bracket and secured together into the chassis.
Alternatively, you can drill four Ø4.5mm holes in the most suitable place on the wall of your computer chassis, using the electric power drill.
EK-Loop Angled Bracket – 120/140 mm can be installed directly into the chassis, using the enclosed M4 x 10 DIN7984 screws, M4 steel washers, and M4 nuts (as shown in the picture).
After securing the EK-Loop Angled Bracket – 120/140mm into the chassis, you can attach the reservoir. (See chapter: Attaching the Reservoir to the EK-Loop Angled Bracket)

INSTALLING THE EK-LOOP ANGLED BRACKET ONTO THE RADIATOR

EK-Loop Angled Bracket – 120/140 mm can be mounted onto the 120 mm format radiator using the M4 x 5 mm Phillips head radiator mounting screws (as shown in the picture). There is no need for additional nuts, just tighten the screws evenly and do not use excessive force.
You can mount the bracket on each side of the radiator. On 240, 360 and 480 mm radiators, the bracket can also be attached to the middle holes.
As the installation of the 140 mm format reservoir onto the 120 mm format radiator requires the full use of the slots on the base bracket, the possibilities of installation are limited.
We reccommend using bigger radiator than the reservoir for the use of this angled bracket configuration – example of 280 size reservoir and 360 size radiator shown in chapter: ATTACHING THE RESERVOIR TO THE EK-LOOP ANGLED BRACKET.

ATTACHING THE RESERVOIR TO THE EK-LOOP ANGLED BRACKET

Carefully position the 140 format reservoir onto the EK-Loop angled bracket and secure it with the enclosed M4 X 10 DIN 7984 screws and acetal standoffs (as shown in the picture). While tightening the screws, do not use excessive force. Make sure that all four (4) screws and standoffs are adequately secured!
When using the holes in the middle, it is no longer possible to move the FLT reservoirs from or toward the radiator!

ATTACHING THE FITTINGS
When using the EK-Loop Angled Bracket with FLT products, we recommend you use EK-Fittings because of their compatibility, and there will be no reason to worry.
Before you attach the fittings, make sure the acetal standoffs are placed correctly. Otherwise, you risk the possibility of scratching your FLT product (especially when using EK-Torque HTC-16 Fittings).
