the 10" - 18"W pads, partially unzip the locking zippers under
the cover flaps. The screw heads are accessible in the channels.
Ensure the gear teeth are properly aligned before the final
tightening.
BASIC PADS: Mold the pad by bending with hands or over a
firm surface. (Basic pads are not shown.)
WARNING: If the screws (A) are are not evenly tightened all
around the ring (B), unwanted movement may occur.
