following the procedures discussed in Lesson 1.
h. Longitudinal (Head-Foot) and Grid Locks Replacement.
(1)
Turn off the power to the table and remove the table top.
(2) Position the grid chamber at the foot-end of the table and move the
longitudinal carriage to the head-end.
(3) Locate the longitudinal lock (the grid lock is located next to the grid).
Label all wiring on the lock and disconnect it.

shouldered studs. A spring, retained by a cotter pin and washer on each stud, holds the
lock away from the carriage when it is disengaged.

necessary to climb into the table body to perform this step. An inspection mirror may be
helpful when removing the hardware from the stud at the head end of the lock.
(6)
Use a hex key wrench to back out both studs until the lock can be
removed.
(7)
Install the replacement lock by following the procedure in reverse.
(8) Energize the table and engage the lock from the spot-film device front
