of each screw.
13.2 Assemble spacer (13), bearings (14) and shims (6) onto spindle (11). Fit equal numbers of shims
to each side of rollers to eliminate side play when offered up to roller housing.
13.3 Fit each bearing assembly into roller housing (7) and secure to elevation tube with four screws
(9) and new washers (8). Tighten screws (9) to torque of 1.36Nm (12lbf in.).
13.4 Do not fit grub screws (10) at this stage.
13.5 Refit tank tube clamp assembly (1) to the elevation tube (44), by pivoting the free end about the
retaining grub screw (25) and tap in Spirol pin (3) to secure.

14.1 Assemble the outer tube (
)
14.2 Lay the outer tube on a horizontal surface with the bottom clamp spindle downwards.
14.3 Assemble two shims (2) into clamp pad (1) and fit clamp pad into top housing
14.4 Install elevation tube (
) into outer tube and align groove with position for guide pin (8).
14.5 Install guide pin (8) and grub screw (9), securing grub screw with Loctite 222E.
14.6 Adjust grub screw so that elevation tube is free to move in outer tube with minimum rotational
freedom.
14.7 Screw in clamp knob spindle (3) finger tight. Fit clamp knob as shown in
Secure clamp knob with screw (6) and washer (4). Fit plug (7) into clamp knob.
