These are the ones we are loosening to get the units to work!

Some are very loose, while others on the same board are tightly screwed down. Most seem very tight.

Clearly with folds, the ballot path must be set differently for central count than for the normal precinct count, whether we like it or not. This is not an easy operation to do in the field, and not one doable by most customers.
