hand, the braking is not sufficient.
4. Remove the two mount bolts that secure the castor to the base.
5. With the castor in the brake position, rotate the wheel clockwise to provide
increased braking force. Rotate the wheel counterclockwise to reduce the
force required to activate the tracking mode (see figure 4-20 on page 4-18).
