3.2.7 Prepare the Tabletop for Moving (A, W,Wi)
Before the Discovery can be tilted to vertical, you must slide the table to the left and clamp
it so it clears the floor when the unit is tilted to vertical. To accomplish this, do the
following:
1. Remove the tabletop pad.
2. Remove the three Phillips screws holding the tabletop. Two of the screws are at
the left corners and one at the right back corner looking down on the tabletop.
3. Slide the tabletop to the right until it clears the table base panel.
4. Referring to Figure 3-10, adjust the Table End Stop as pictured.
