M1046983 04/08
The mounting hardware for the wrist casting includes a thrust bearing and several
friction washers that control the resistance to side movement (swivel) of the displays.
1. Using a 3/4-inch (19-mm) socket, tighten (clockwise) or loosen (counterclockwise)
the mounting nut to adjust the resistance.
2. Adjust the resistance to the desired setting.
• The display should swivel from side to side freely but remain in position after
moving it to the desired position.
• The display should not move out of position when front panel controls on the
display are used.
The clutch bearings provide resistance when tilting the displays forward but have no
effect when tilting the displays backward. To ensure that each bearing is adjusted to a
relatively equal torque, adjust each bearing in small increments while testing for the
proper resistance.
1. Using a 5-mm hex wrench, turn the adjustment screw on each clutch bearing
incrementally clockwise to increase forward resistance or counterclockwise to
decrease forward resistance.
2. Adjust the resistance to the desired setting.
• When tilted backward, the display should move up freely but remain in position at
the desired position.
• The display should not move out of position when front panel controls on the
display are used.
• The display should move with minimal resistance when being tilted forward.
