Fig. 5. Tightening the screw of the smaller weight on the other side.
On each side put the paper between the bigger weight and the smaller weight and push the bigger
weight slightly towards the smaller weight. Then tighten the screws a little having the hexagon key
pointing backwards and about 30
O
up from horizontal (Fig. 6).
Fig. 6. All the side weights mounted shown with the
paper as spacer between two of them and the hexagon
key in one of them.
Coarse adjustment of lateral balance
Raise the pick-up lifter. Using the supplied plexiglass rod, move the counterweight rod up by 1 mm
and check that the weights on each side move up at the same time (Fig. 7). If not, loosen the screw
for the larger weight that moves up first, move it slightly outwards and re-tighten the screw. Check
again and re-adjust as necessary. For fine adjustment see
Lateral Balance
(Fig. 13).
