After placing the unit where it will be used, check its stability. If there is even a slight rocking motion or the unit is not
stable, determine which stabilizing leg is not resting on the floor. To adjust, loosen the Jam Nut, and turn the
Stabilizing Leg until the rocking motion ceases, and both stabilizing legs rest firmly on the floor. Re tighten the Jam
Nut.
