The
platter and base both have pre-tapped 1/4-20 machine screw holes for
mounting customer fixtures and jigs. The thread depth is 0.5 In (12mm)
minimum. When attaching screws to these tapped holes, please make
sure the screw length entering the platter or base castings does not
exceed about 1/2 Inch.
Note: Never use the chassis as structural support.

Mounting to the Base
The base casting is 13 Inches (330mm) in diameter and is located inside
the chassis under the bottom panel. It contains (8) 1/4-20 tapped
holes for mounting, located on bolt circle diameters of:
(4) - 12.0 Inch BCD
(4) - 6.0 Inch BCD
Each set offset 45 degrees.
The 13 Inch diameter area of the base is the true load bearing surface.
None of the other exterior portions of the chassis should be used
for mounting to jigs or fixtures.

Rubber Pads
A package of 8 triangular rubber foot pads are provided with the LT360EX.
Depending on how you intend to mount the LT360EX, you may or
may not wish to use the optional pads.
If you intend to bolt the LT360EX directly to other rigging
or fixtures, it is probably best not to use the feet. This will allow
you to bolt the base of the LT360EX directly to your fixture
without the rubber pads between the interface. This will make the
joint more rigid.
If you will be using the LT360EX on the floor, then the rubber
feet can be applied to the bottom of the unit.
