Separate the upper and lower halves of the AST-2446/2 by removing both
M8 screws and wave washers. Unpack the trio mount and place it on the
ground.

The set screw on the threaded coupler must be backed out in order for the
AST-2446/2 to be threaded into place.

Thread the lower half of the AST-2446/2 into the threaded coupler on the
trio mount. The lower half of the AST-2446/2 must be threaded fully until
the piece is safely secured to the threads, then tighten the screw back into
place. Use the screwdriver to tighten the set screw once the AST-2446/2
has been attached.

The following steps must be performed by a minimum of three people:

Two people lift the trio mount into place. Align the upper and lower halves
of the AST-2446/2. Slide the lower half/trio mount into the upper half of the
AST-2446/2.

It is recommended that the height, and location, of the ECM-3000 be
determined prior to performing the following steps.

Determine the mounting height. Align the M8 mounting holes on the upper
and lower halves of the AST-2446/2 and insert the M8 screws and wave

washers. Use the 516˝ wrench to tighten the M8 screws.

Verify that all hardware is secure and tight before proceeding to the next
section.
