The lens holders simply snap into place on the bench.
See Figure 3, Mounting Lens Holders on Bench. To
slide the lens holder along the bench, grasp the lens
holder at its base and squeeze the locking clip on the side
of the holder. Continue to squeeze the locking clip while
the lens is slid along or removed from the bench. When
the locking clip is released the lens is held firmly in place.
