Adjusting the Knob Rotation Torque
When the X knob and Y knob are moved to the top and bottom
positions, the torque adjustment screws can be found between
the knobs. Turning the torque adjustment screw to move it close

the rotational torque, turn the adjustment screw counterclockwise
for the Y knob and clockwise for the X knob, as viewed from

Avoid loosening these screws excessively. If they are too loose,
the top surface of the stage may move, even when touched very
lightly.
