Application and Installation
The rubber stand feet are essential components when using the IC-7100 in desktop or base station configurations. These feet provide multiple important functions: they create a non-slip surface to prevent the radio from sliding during operation, provide proper ventilation clearance underneath the radio chassis, dampen vibrations from the internal cooling fan and relays, protect furniture surfaces from scratches, and establish the proper viewing angle for the display and controls.
Over time, rubber feet can wear down from use, become hardened and lose their grip, tear or separate from their mounting clips, or be lost during transport or storage. Signs that replacement is needed include the radio sliding on the desk during operation, visible wear or cracking of the rubber, feet that no longer stay attached to the chassis, or missing feet that create an unstable or tilted mounting position.
Replacement is straightforward and can be performed by most users. The IC-7100 typically uses multiple rubber feet that clip or attach to designated mounting points on the bottom or sides of the radio chassis. The old foot should be removed by gently disengaging the mounting clips. The mounting area should be cleaned of any dirt or residue before installing the new foot.
The new foot installs by engaging the mounting clips with their corresponding slots or receptacles on the radio chassis. The foot should snap securely into place and sit flush against the chassis. After installation, verify that the foot is firmly attached and that the radio sits level and stable on a flat surface. All feet should be checked to ensure the radio doesn't rock or wobble.
This replacement part is important for operators who use their IC-7100 in desktop configurations and want to maintain proper stability, ventilation, and protection of both the radio and mounting surface. Regular inspection of rubber feet helps prevent radio damage from falls or tipping.
