Chapter 03: Adjusting the hinges
If the position or the seating of the lid on the frame has moved, this can be rectified as
follows:
1.) Open the lid.
2.) Mark the current position of the hinge brackets on the lid.
3.) Loosen the screw-fastening of the hinge brackets, initially just on
one side, and slide the lid approx. 1-2 mm in the direction respectively
required.
If the lid needs e.g. to sit further back towards the hinge box when closed,
with the lid opened it needs to be lowered slightly. Then re-tighten the
screws firmly (the lid can be moved/lowered using a standard crowbar).
4.) Repeat the steps described in point 3.) on all further hinges.
5.) Close the lid.
