Why Collars and washers...?

Many people fit TICO S material as shown below... at a glance all appears to be correct...

The base has been bolted directly to the floor; this is correct. The TICO S pad has been placed between the floor mount and the machine this is also correct...  The problem arises when the the machine has been bolted to the floor mount.  The installer has NOT used a TICO S COLLAR or a TICO S WASHER... therefore some of the vibration of the machine is transmitted through the metal to metal connection in the Machine bolts to the Base and into the floor. Using TICO S Collars and Washers will maximise the efficiency of the TICO S Pad material.

Fitting the product as shown above will work to a degree...

If your machine has to be bolted to the floor... We recommend TICO S Collars and Washers...
