[C320-list] Cabin Table

[John Frost]

My table support came with a big yellow warning tag that says "DO NOT
LUBRICATE!".
Not sure why, but they seem adamant.
I removed the ugly tag, but since I am forgetful I used my lablemaker to
make a small label to remind me.
By the way, after 3 years it still works smoothly.

Happy Sailing!

I also have problems with the cabin table being put into the "down "
position. I've taken it apart and lubricated but didn't seem to help much.
I'm assuming that "eccentrically" means pushing on the center of the post??

of the hydraulic post to lower it. You have to push it down with sufficient
force to overcome the stiction of the hydraulic post (especially if it
hasn't been used in a while). Also eccentrically loading the post will also
make it not want to move.
