Position quadrant 1 (quadrant 3 forinverted) to the top side of the frameas shown in Figure 15, Quadrant 1Assembly. Note that it may benecessary to loosen the three insertsthat pass through the reflector toattain the proper alignment with thethree tubes in the support frame.This procedure may occur with eachof the quadrants.13. After the quadrant is in position,place a Reflector Locator Spacer(item 27) between each insert andtube (see Figure 16, ReflectorSupport Reflector Detail). You willrepeat this procedure for all fourquadrants by referring to Figure 16.14. Secure the quadrant to the framewith the 1/2" hardware. See Figure16, Reflector Support ReflectorDetail. Note that there are threedifferent 1/2" bolt lengths:Location A = (items 23, 25, 26)Location B = (items 22, 25, 26)Location C = (items 24, 25, 26)These locations are consistent withall four quadrants. Tighten hardwareonly until snug.Figure 16: Reflector Support Reflector Detail15
