Bail Mounting a Device with a Swivel Base

NOTICE

Only pan-head machine bolts or self-tapping screws should be used to secure the swivel base. If you use screws with countersunk heads, you may damage the mounting bracket.

You can install the optional swivel base (included) on the bail mount, so you can turn the device for a wider range of viewing angles.

  1. Using the swivel base Callout number one as a template, mark the pilot holes Callout number two through the outer three screw holes.
