Default Putting Robofocus on a NGF-C--Step #1?

Step #1 in the RFocus installation procedure says:

Use 5/64 hex key wrench to remove the pair of set screws holding the motor
slot cover plate, (which also has the draw tube tension screw), and remove
the plate. The will expose the jack shaft set screws.

Huh? Can anyone translate that into something that is understandable? No
diagrams or pictures are provided. It would be good if someone could point
out what the "slot cover plate" is and where the set screws are. Here's a
place to look. http://www.homedome.com/robofoc1.htm. Go down past the
picture of the Configuration dialog to 4 pictures grouped together. The one
in the top row on the right shows the RF device I have. It's the closest
device to the viewer.
