A. The ropes attach securely to the pin. Secure attachment of the ropes is important but not usually a problem that needs correction.
B. The ropes are in the center of the wheel grooves. Proper placement of the ropes in the wheel grooves is important for smooth movement, but this is not a common problem needing correction.
C. The weights are equal on each side. Ensuring equal weights is important but not typically a problem needing correction as it is usually set up correctly initially.
D. The weights rest against the foot of the bed. Correct. Weights should not rest against the foot of the bed; they must hang freely to maintain proper traction and alignment.
