8.2 Maintenance to be performed by the purchaser
The Base Unit is adjustable in all directions. Frequent realignment of the Base Unit may cause
the adjustable parts to loosen. Therefore, we strongly recommend performing the following
maintenance work on a regular basis:
8.2.1 Adjusting the Locking Lever
The Locking Lever of the Base handle assembly arrests both the Base Handle
Assembly to the connecting tube and the Transitional Member to the Base handle assembly.
Frequent releasing and depressing of the lever may cause changes in the fastening tension
which need to be compensated.
Check the tension of the Locking Lever at regular intervals. Proceed as described below in
order to readjust the Locking Lever tension:
1. Open the Locking Lever.
2. Remove the Hex Wrench from its storage holder.
3. Hold the Tension Knob at the Base Handle Assembly and turn
the lock screw inside the Tension Knob counter-clockwise using
the Hex Wrench.
4. Check the Locking Lever tension by depressing and releasing
the Locking Lever. Make sure that the Locking Lever with the
two bolts is properly engaged in the inside of the Base Handle
Assembly.
5. If necessary, turn the Tension Knob until you obtain the required
tension. The lever movement should be smooth, but firm.
6. Holding the Tension Knob, close the lock screw inside the
Tension Knob by turning it clockwise using the Hex Wrench.
Note: The Locking Lever must be open, while readjusting the
Tension Knob.
Ensure that the Locking Lever lip is properly placed under the
two Stainless Steel pegs
WARNING:
The Locking Lever should not be removed and should never be forced into
place. Should the Locking Lever be disengaged from the internal Tension
Stainless Steel Rod, carefully re-insert, ensuring that the Locking Lever lip
is properly placed under the two Stainless Steel pegs (see picture) and that
it is squarely positioned before lowering the Locking Lever. If the Locking
Lever is on an angle it may damage the internal mechanism.
