6. Put four triangle pedestals around the Column

22 .

7. Put the Frame on four Pedestals.

NOTE!

The workshop should be large enough for you to move around the Parabola,

rather than moving it around.

If such a place is not available, and if you must

Fig. 40

move the Parabola around, you have better to
attach four Pedestals to the bottom of the Outer
Frame with Scotch tape beforehand.

8. Place the preliminarily assembled Mirror on the Frame.

9. Tighten loosely the Mirror to the Frame in 16 places with Screws

37 and Nuts

33 .

The right one overlapping

In order to prevent the mirror assy. warping upward,

fix it temporarily on the outer frame with two

tooth-picks inserted into the holes on both of holes
next to the one to be screwed. At this time, check
the overlapping parts of the mirrors as shown in

Fig.41

.

35 Tooth-picks

10. Tighten LOOSELY all of 16 Screws

37 on entire circumference.

11. Cut off the column vertically, and divide it in half horizontally along the

black line.Then, connect sections of two halves to make one large column.

12. Place the cover over the large column, and put the Parabola

on it with the mirror surface upward.

Insert Screws

to screw-holes on inner two circles of the

Mirror, and loosely fix them with nuts

Ten screws at the lower part MUST be the

Stainless-steel

Screws

instead of Screws

to avoid erosion caused by

spills and splashes of boiling liquid.

14. Check the entire mirror carefully to see if there is any

bending or warping of the surface.

The nice secret for this step to be done well is to
tighten screws in the numerical order of the circuits
