<DIV>You need to visualize which way you want the wippen to tilt. There are
three ways to move the wippen. The first is moving the whole wippen from lef=
t to
right, by repositioning the flange in the screw hole. Then you can=
angle the front of the wippen to the right or left by adding traveling paper=
to
the whole length of the flange. Then you can tilt the top of the wippen from=
left to right by adding traveling paper to only the bottom of the flange. To=
get
the wippen positioned correctly on the cushion and the jack tender, you=
need to do a little of all three. </DIV>
