We affirm the judgment of the trial court. However we agree with appellant that it was improper for the trial court to imprison him at hard labor. Brooks v. State, 349 So.2d 794 (Fla.2d DCA 1977). The case is remanded in order to correct the sentence, and the appellant need not be present at that time.
