According to the parts inventory (as noted on page 34 of Owner's Manual) there are supplied four #4 split ring washers (as well as one #8 split ring washer).

Yet, from the assembly instructions, I count the need for FIVE #4 split ring washers and as a result I came up one short.  The five are:

       1.  page 18, figure 11 shows the use of a #4 split washer.
       2.  And, four more #4 split washers for the Jack screws as described on page 25, figure 22.

Luckily, the spare parts bag has an extra couple of #4 split ring washers but I think that either I am wrong somewhere in my above description or the inventory parts accounting needs to be updated.
