Easy as changing spark plugs!! Seriously! The carriage on my 23c has an elevation lock that, since I replaced it using Beseler parts, has ensured that the carriage is quite rigid (certainly defeating my ham handed attempts to move it when I forget it's locked!). The focusing standard, on mine, lacks such a lock. Considering the relative age of mine, I would be somewhat shocked if someone else's 23c lacked such a carriage lock. Graham
