Note
The drying unit should be re-leveled each time its location is changed.
To level it, proceed as follows:

1 Position your Moisture Analyzer at the selected location.


2 Turn the two leveling feet until the air bubble is in the center
of the level indicator.

10 Moisture Analyzer
Air bubble at 12 o'clock: turn both feet clockwise.
Air bubble at 3 o'clock: turn left foot clockwise, right foot
counterclockwise.
Air bubble at 6 o'clock: turn both feet counterclockwise.
Air bubble at 9 o'clock: turn left foot counterclockwise,
right foot clockwise.
