While I've got the manual open, here are some better screen shots. I'm just zooming in on the PDF and hitting "alt" and "PrtSc" at the same time. I post the picture here by clicking in this window and hitting "Ctrl" and "V" at the same time. The picture will appear after a few seconds. PrtSc is the print screen key.

@DavidBarkey right on, there are many ways to skin a cat. One of the great things about this place is how we exchange ideas and solutions and I have to tell you, the level of ingenuity and skill here is impressive to me.

@MattA You must have looked in a different manual, as the one I was looking in has the bracket and both mounting holes are elongated, not just the upper one. In fact I was wondering and even wrote half a message about "why have both holes elongated, when one was enough" but I gave up armchair speculating. Great tip about the "alt" and "PrtSc" and CTRL-V. This must be in Windows. I wonder if it is browser specific, so what browser did this work on, maybe it's helpful to others. I'm using a Mac, so something else might work.

My Chromebook does not have a "PrtSc" button. But then, at 5 yo it is almost an antique and starting to act up :afraid: probably need to get a new one soon :headbash: Never figured out how to do a screen capture.

The screen capture and paste function are built in windows functions. I'm using firefox to browse the internet. Windows also has a snipping tool where you can just snip certain parts of your screen.

I'm not the most computer literate person. My son was in town a few years ago and I was putting together a welding report and every time I wanted to put in a temp, I would have to write out degrees. He told me if I hit certain keys at the same time it brings up the degree symbol. Since then, I forgot what keys they were so back to writing out degrees. :spin:

Keep the Peace :cop:

@Harry As an engineer I use this shortcut all the time. To enter the degree symbol hold down alt and type 0176 on the right keypad. I don't think this works with the numbers above the letters.

Hi Dave, if you did it again would you go that way or make the choice to move the sprocket back?

Would do it again, but somehow make it adjustable next time .
