Skid tracking adjustment

13 Adjustments to the tracking of the skid may become necessary after considerable use. Check the
tracking as follows:
13.1 With the track locks engaged and a payload fitted, the skid should track in a straight line over a
distance of 3.6 m (12 feet) with deviation not exceeding 5 cm (2 in.). If this cannot be achieved, the
wheels should be re-aligned. When re-aligning the wheels, start by adjusting the wheel with the red
locking knob on the fixed leg. This will often correct any alignment problems.
14 To re-align the skid wheels
14.1 Remove the column from the skid.
14.2 Engage the track lock (8) on each castor.
14.3 Remove two screws (7.1) from the foot support (7) on the fixed leg and remove the foot support.
14.4 Using a suitable spanner, remove nut (8.1) (A spanner is available from Vinten, Part No.
3319-900SP).
