ABSTRACT:
An installation kit for installing an absorption device on a piece of equipment and then rendering the device tamper-proof with respect to the damping setting thereof, including an absorption device having an adjustment member for adjusting the damping setting thereof, and locking mechanism for locking the adjustment member after the damping setting has been set to a desired level. The kit also includes an obstruction element to be applied to the locking mechanism for prohibiting access to the locking mechanism. The obstruction element is a mass of deformable material disposed on a sheet material that facilitates alignment of the mass of deformable material with the locking mechanism during transfer of the mass of deformable material into the locking mechanism. The invention also relates to a method of adjusting the damping setting of an absorption device and then rendering the device tamper-proof with respect to the damping setting thereof.
