make contact with the washer. The wheel will then be damaged
by the washer, creating sharp edges on the wheel which will cut
away more Vesconite. Make sure that there is at least 2mm
between the washers and the edge of the Vesconite where the
wheels run, over the entire length of the strips.
3.3 Check the hinge on the wheel guide
Refer to fig. 1B. The bottom end of the wheel guide is hinged
so that its tip can rest on the pavement, guiding the rubber wheel
smoothly down onto the pavement. Check for excessive free
play in the hinge. Remove the split pin on the hinge pin and
pull the hinge pin out. If worn, replace it with a new, greased
pin. Otherwise lubricate and replace the old pin.
3.4 Refer to section, "Aligning the drive drum" in the manual and
check the alignment of the drum.
