I have the same situation as habacomike with my DC40 feeder: unless the feeder is parallel to the slider, the feeder does not have sufficient leverage to overcome the resistance of the gas strut, so part of the bracket sits proud of the cast iron.?
I have a 3200mm slider, and when the DC40 feeder is in the "stowed" position (parallel to the sliding table) it does not protrude horizontally past the slider in the "locked" position, so I view it as a non-issue.?
