and inner Polycord 

holder. 

  

  Note: Assembly 

has been turned over 

for both better view of 

alignment and to tighten 

the flat head screws.

Improperly aligned retainer 

and inner polycord holder. 

  

 

Note: The 3 holes of 

the inner polycord holder do 

not align with holes of the 

retainer. Flex heads could not 

be mounted to the machine in 

this position!

Step 2

With the assembly in the same position as previous picture shows, 

place the retainer on the screws insuring alignment is such that the 

3 holes of the inner Polycord holder align with 3 of the 6 holes of 

the retainer. See pictures below for examples of both proper and 

improper alignment.
