MFS Spare parts help

[Len Coleman]

I am looking thru EKAT and having an issue with what I need........one of the screws that slides into the MFS sleeve....... EKAT shows a picture (?) of whats looks to be 4 of these plus the connectors but calls it a "sliding blocK"      493094 Sliding block which does not sound right.....  guess I will just call in the AM.

The name is not surprising. The names used in the EKAT system come from the German engineering department, but then also go through German to English translation. So a technical name in the German language may not necessarily sound correct after it has been translated to English. A good example of this is that the riving knife on the plunge saws is actually called a "wedge" in the EKAT system. The more technical a name is, the less likely it's translation will make sense.  [crying]
