Setup and Assembly

Assembly is straightforward and typically takes approximately 30 minutes.

Step 1: Prepare the Base

• Place the base on a clean, dry, and level surface.
• Fill the base with either water or sand for stability. The base can hold 110 lbs (50 kg) of water or 220 lbs (100 kg) of sand. Dry sand is recommended for optimal stability.
• Ensure the 12 suction cups on the bottom of the base are clean and dry for maximum adhesion to the floor.

• The unique shockproof system, including dual PVC vibration dampers, 4 strong springs, an enlarged silencing layer, and thickened mute cotton, should be properly aligned during attachment.
