Base Plate
The base plate is split into two separate pieces that are joined together with screws. The plate with tubes connects to LEGO studs. Join the two pieces together at the flat sides. While holding them together, insert and fasten an M3 x 12mm (flat head) screw. The screws heads needs to be flush with the surface of the base plate. The mounting holes are chamfered and designed to recess the screws. Repeat this progress for the four mounting holes.
Install Standoffs to Plate
While holding the base plate, insert one of the long standoffs and twist to fasten onto one of the screws. Tighten the standoffs by hand for each of the four screws.
