VARIABLE POSITIONER

摘要

A variable positioner includes a body portion with a cylindrical component, and an axially aligned through hole in the body position. A threading protrudes radially inward from an inner surface of the axially aligned through hole. A first axial end of the variable positioner defines an interface surface for interfacing with a rotor arm.
