Subject:      Folding table "push-push" latch
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed

Specific to '89 but I suspect universal application...

The latch holding the folding table into its cavity in the wall needs periodic oiling. If you examine the latch mechanism mounted on the underside of the table, there's a spring-loaded ring. If you press that toward the table, a little pointed thing emerges from a slit in the post, with either two points showing or one point just barely showing. In both conditions you must be able to easily rotate it clockwise with your fingernail, or you're in danger of it hanging up and refusing to disengage from the wall.

Yours, David
