Thats because the motor is fixed in two holes and you move the spur/slipper unit in an out to adjust the mesh.. After realising this I am after a Serpent now.



So you can see the nut at the bottom and the two holes for the motor screws. Looks like it is held in position by that sliding plate on the top motor screw. Could be interesting to see one of these jump with a small pinion on it Actually it's not a bad idea, it means that the weight from the motor stays static when you adjust the mesh. Lateral thinking!
