Replace Carriage Cover/Carriage Bushings

The carriage cover bushings (2 total) are rated for approximately 2000 hours of operational usage while the carriage assembly bushings (4 total) are rated for approximately 4000 hours of opera- tional usage. Many factors including, but not limited to, hours/day used, cleanliness of the slide shaft and general ambient environment make it impossible to calculate the average time that the carriage bushings to last.

If not replaced, the wear on the bushings can result in erratic carriage motion and/or carriage axis failures. It can even cause the cartridge head height to become uneven.

To replace the carriage bushings, follow the procedures for Car- riage Cover Bushing and Carriage Bushing Replacement found in Chapter 5.
