7) Remove the movable block (#0402), roller race (#0403), retainer (#405), and cylindrical
rollers (#0406). To prevent the cylindrical rollers from coming apart, we recommend holding the movable block and roller race and turning them toward you, as shown in Fig. 57.
When installing the cylindrical rollers in the roller race, place the cylindrical rollers in alternate directions as shown in Fig. 58. Move the roller race using the setscrews (#0465x3) to adjust to ensure that the movable block (#0402) moves smoothly without stiffness and unevenness. Push the movable block (#0402) using a spring balance and adjust so that the starting resistance is between 120 and 170 grams when the movable block begins to move. When the sems bolts (#0456 x 3) fastening the roller race are tightened, the smooth motion of the roller race may be lost. Therefore, repeat the above adjustment.
