hope your example relatively late production

for the first eight or ten years of production the stands were neither self-centring nor self-dishing, even thought they claimed to be

this was due to play in the arms at the pivots

owners learned retrofits such as adding brass washers to the arm pivots

finally, after ten or twelve years of user feedback the manufacturer fixed the problem
