Origin Live Silver Mk4 tonearm install issues

I bought a Dr. Feikert Volare with a Origin Live Silver Mk4 tonearm.  The OL manual is for an older model of the Silver (which has differnt parts).  I am having a really hard time getting the arm installed and not getting much help.  The lack of documentaion, or how to videos, is frustrating.   Does anyone have this arm and can I ask you some questons?  TY!

Speaking of contacting OL. 
I was in touch with them regularly about a month or two ago. I've  emailed them recently 3 times with a question and no one has responded. 
Anyone know what's up?

That's odd. When I emailed them last year, they responded within 3 days. Maybe someone got sick, but it's unusual for them to be so lax about responding. I've had their products for 20 years and have had questions, which they answered.

They got back with me yesterday. Said they've been extremely busy and apologies for the delay.

I’m glad they did, so you can get everything sorted out. Did they offer any explanation about the tonearm movement?

The bases for the OL Silver haven’t changed in the past 20 years. I had a Mk 1 Silver, sold it and got a Mk II. And I still have a Rega turntable, which the Silver remains mounted on. I have the Encounter on another table, but both the posts for either of the two OL arms dropped into the turntable easily.
