Re: Wedges not being driven in flush with back of frame surface

You might try ringing Will at lions? he's on their machinery team and could probably advise. He can tell you any parts you might need and if you cannot fix it over the phone you can send it to them in Birmingham to fix. They helped with my machine and were great.
