8.2.5 Removing Revelator from its Base
Loosen the adjuster on the left side of Revelator’s stand by turning it
counter-clockwise until Revelator is easily removed from the stand.
Turn the detached stand upside-down and you’ll find a small rubber
ring on the underside of the stand. You can remove this ring and use
it to plug the mounting hole in Revelator for handling comfort.
