    Hey guys,

    Sorry if it seems so basic but I didn't manage to find a thread mentioning this issue or how to properly set the side supports.

    I have a PS8700 where the arms of lateral supports are controlled by the same screw. The thing is that when I want to tighten them (after tightening the 12/6 supports), one of the arm is closer to the the racquet and makes the support touch it before the other, and mess up the alignment of the racquet.

    Is there a way I can set the arms to be equally distant?
    Note that the supports orientation are the same on both side. I tried to "play" with it to compensate the issue but it's that good of a solution. The problem is still there. I have more or less the same problem with both side supports.

    So after hours of trying to get it right and trying to unmount the side supports for nothing, I found out that I could solve this by adjusting the towers position.
    Took me a while to realize that there's a bit of play when a tower is not screwed tight and we can move it a little bit.

    You can delete this thread if you find it useless (I don't believe I can?). Or leave it for newbies like me who might encounter this issue one day...
    Towers!!

    And i would have learned that one screw per arm must be more convenient to avoid this.
