Modules Mounted at Different Elevations
For cases where the other module in the link is mounted at a different elevation, the assembly hardware
allows tilt adjustment. The proper angle of tilt can be calculated as a factor of both the difference in
elevation and the distance that the link spans. Even in this case, a plumb line and a protractor can be helpful
to ensure the proper tilt. This tilt is typically minimal.
The number of degrees to offset (from vertical) the mounting hardware leg of the support tube is equal to
the angle of elevation from the lower module to the higher module (b in the example provided in Figure 42
on Page 148).
Mounting Assembly
Both the hardware that Mounting Assembly 27RD provides for adjustment and the relationship between the
offset angle of the module and the direction of the beam are illustrated in Figure 144.
