Instructions
Take part and lay the chest flat on the surface. The hollow part should be facing toward the ceiling. The waist should be pointing away from you, the neck should be facing you.
Take a look at the waist portion inside the hollow part. You should see 4 insert holes at 4 corners of the waist. Take 4 - M6 nylon insert locknuts and place them inside, make sure that the white part of the locknuts is facing toward you, not toward the waist.
Use masking tape to secure locknuts in place
A tip is to use masking tape or something similar to secure the locknuts in place, so they don't fall out while you move the part around.
Take part and put it down such that the neck is facing toward the surface while the waist is pointing toward the ceiling. The hollow part should be facing you.
Take part and align it with the waist surface of part .
Take 4 - M6x25 Flat bolts and tighten in the 4 holes at 4 corners of part such that it is secured with the M6 nylon insert locknut before, and align part with part . You might want to use your finger to help secure the locknut in place to make it easier to tighten.
