12. VERTICAL PLUMB By orienting the glass plate manually, reach the vertical plumb and consequently tighten the two lower screws and the upper one of the central adjuster, constantly checking the bubble level. Note: an excessive tightening of the adjusters can lead to the opening of the profile and, consequently, to the malfunction of the adjusters.
IMPORTANT: To tighten the adjusters, it is recommended to use a torque wrench with a tightening torque set to 6.5 Nm.

To move the glass plate outwards, rotate the lower nuts clockwise; vice versa, rotate the upper nuts counterclockwise until the glass is plumb. Conversely, to move the glass plate inwards, rotate the upper nuts clockwise; vice versa, rotate the lower nuts counterclockwise. At this point, having found the required inclination, tighten both rows of adjusters.
