or designation strip slips, they can be tightened
as follows:

more pressure will be applied to the number
card and designation strip. The bends should
be made approximately 1/2-inch in from the tabs
on the ends of the arms and in the opposite
direction from the factory bent tabs.
(4) Install the card retainer on the faceplate
and insert the number card and designation
strip.

Note: If adjusting the arms of the retainer
does not result in sufficient holding power,
replace the card retainer.
