Flatten Mount Here

To modify the MVM, start by ﬂ attening the existing bends shown in

picture 1 on the left. Place the MVM on the ﬂ at spot of the bench vise and pound out the bends until the MVM is ﬂ at and looks like picture 2 on the left.

Use the tin snips to cut away the parts of the mount that are not needed

as shown in Picture 3 on the left. Once the MVM is cut, bend the remaining tab into a 90 degree angle. The bend does not need to be a sharpe 90 degree bend, it just has to bend enough to allow you to mount it using the exsiting screw hole as shown on page 1.

Return to step 3 on page 1.
