Levelling
Screw the spikes into the corners of the stand.
Fit the lock nuts but do not tighten at this stage.
Very carefully (do not scratch the cabinet), use a spirit level to check if it is sitting
level. If it is, gently rock the loudspeaker from front to back, side to side and
diagonally to check for any movement. If none is present and the loudspeaker is
sitting level, no adjustment to the spikes is necessary.
If the loudspeaker is not level, or moves when you rock it, loosen the appropriate lock nuts using the tool provided and use a screwdriver to turn the spikes to adjust their height. Adjust the spikes to level the speaker, using a spirit level placed on the stand.
Press down firmly on the top of the loudspeaker to ensure it is in close contact with your flooring.
Use the spirit level as before and continue to adjust the spikes as required.
Once the speaker is level and does not rock, use the screwdriver to hold the spike in place and fit and tighten the lock nuts with the spanner provided.
Note: To protect wooden or tiled floors, the spikes can be placed on Linn Skeets which are available from your Linn retailer.
