as shown in Figure 10.
12. Place the Rear Jaw across the
two Top Blocks in such a way that
the small holes (only one shown
in Figure 10) fit over the raised

other holes in the figure must
align with the front holes in the
blocks and the Indexing Nuts
beneath them.
13. Insert the remaining two screws
(L) in the holes Indicated in Figure
10. Insert them down through the
Rear Jaw, through the Top Block
and into the Indexing Nuts in the
Frame. Tighten securely using the
Plastic Socket Wrench, as shown
