Mid Plate Guide
Inspection
The mid plate guides are the self-adjusting mechanisms
for the mid plate.
NOTE: Make sure all parts are clean before inspection.
Check the mid plate guides by pushing down on each of
the guides by hand (10–60 kg). The mid plate guides
should compress and lock in place.
If the mid plate guides do not move or compress, disas-
semble the mid plate guides and inspect them for debris,
wear and damage. Refer to page
('91-'92 Models).
