This was a tough one in difficult spaces. Luckily done now. I removed the blue bar at the top and slid the spindle in from the bottom and once in I re-attached the blue bar. Made this last step allot easier.
My Z plate holes are wrong, The eccentric holes are on the right and the smaller holes are on the left
Hi Ronnie,
We are aware of the problem, luckily this will not have an effect on the mechanism so you can use it as is. You will just need to adjust the wheels from the opposite sides when adjusting the tightness on the aluminium.
Eventhough I had the two V-Wheels very lightly tightened, I could not get the spindle past the wheels. Instead I slided it from the top (as the bottom does not have the blue brackat), took the top wheel off, inserted the spindle and re-mounted the top wheel.
This is where I finished on day 1: Can’t see straight anymore :D
