• After repeated use, the cradle may
become loose. This is remedied by
adjusting the tension screws on the side
of the body. Put a 2.5mm hex wrench
into head of cradle retaining nuts, &
using 8mm spanner turn the locking nuts
anti-clockwise, holding the hex wrench
without moving grub screws.
Using the hex wrench gently tighten
screws in series until the cradle moves
freely in the slide but does not allow the
motor to wobble.
When adjustment is complete re-tighten
locking nuts clockwise, ensuring the
grub screws do not move from their new
positions.
