Drooping lagun table

Our table is "drooping" - it's not level and tightening the levers doesn't seem to make any difference. The joint is loose - I can hold the table where it is level but it won't stay that way.  Is there something in the joint that we've messed up and need to fix? Anything I can do myself? The picture is outside mount but it does the same thing inside.


Thank you!

    Take a look under the table top.  Anything loose or bent?

    @dluck, the picture kind of shows the table is not seated all the way down on the top spindle. You may have to jiggle the table a little to get it to sit flat. I have that issue with my table.

    Hi, Agree with @Freespirit,

    Look closely at the circled area in the picture and double check the horizontal arm is seated on the vertical spindle, hopefully that's it...best wishes

    Agree with @Sharon_is_SAM. The bushing should be seated all the way over the sleeve. It's sometimes hard to get it all the way down. Be sure the clamping lever is not tight. Twisting back and forth can help.

    edit to say how slow I am at snipping and editing a picture. Everyone beat me to it. =)

    The Plastic Bushing of the Arm have failed on mine several times.
    The Bushing can be purchased from Lagun - - real pain to remove/install.

    Lagun claims the table can remain 'up' while traveling however that has not been my experience.

    A short term quick fix might be to flip the arm around . . moving bad bushing to under table. That way the bad bushing only has vertical weight, no cantilever effect.

    Picture of my bad bushing before replacement . . note how the clamp is very tight but there is a gap between the center post and bushing side wall.

    To add to what @MuttonChops wrote, two other things that I've done were to slit the bushing with a saw so that it collapses further and to remove the black plastic end cap. Both these things make it easier for the clamping action to work.

    Thanks, everyone! It just wasn't seated correctly and once I knew what to look for it was an easy fix. Hooray for collective wisdom!
