Locking Points for the Telescopic Sections
Refer to Figure 3-188.
The locking pin must not engage the telescopic section for
locking or unlocking it.
The notch (1) must be clear. That is why you have to extend
the telescoping cylinder 0.38 in (35 mm) further than with a
return run.
The following table shows the extended length for locking
and unlocking the telescopic sections.
