Abstract
An apparatus for adjustably affixing a support bracket to a part of a machine frame includes an adjustment screw to adjust the height of the support bracket on the frame and a pair of oppositely movable clamp elements having oblique surfaces for wedging the support bracket in place following adjustment. Wedging is accomplished by turning a setting screw to move the clamp elements in mutually opposite directions. The setting screw is parallel to the adjustment screw, allowing equal access to both the adjustment and setting screws.
