• Positive numbers on the gauge indicate the distance (in mm) ABOVE the top level of the elevating blocks (or, above the bottom of the chassis).
• Negative numbers on the gauge indicate the distance (in mm) BELOW the top level of the elevating blocks (or, below the bottom of the chassis).
REAR DOWNSTOPS
Measure at the bottom of the rear uprights. Do NOT measure under the arm.
ADJUSTING FRONT DOWNSTOPS

Turn IN (CW) the rear downstop screw so they protrude more
below the arms.
• DECREASE rear downstop:
