inside.
b. Insert into the support tube receiver (Fig. 31:B).
c. Rotate the support tube down until release pin buttons are positioned through the receiver
mounting holes.
Adjusting the position from the floor
a. The cast housing is adjustable within the support tube.
b. Remove wing nut (Fig. 32:C) from bolt holding caster housing into the support tube.
c. Slide housing to desired height and replace bolt and secure wing nut.
