    Von Weise Actuator Limit Switch Adjustment

    Thanks, Magic. So you're saying the lower cam can't be adjusted? I didn't dismantle it very far. As soon as I got the backplate off, I saw it was stuffed full of new-looking grease, so I didn't need to add any. I just replaced the backplate - I didn't touch the ACME nut (if I understand the...
