The above advice is incorrect.

From the top, rollers should look like X.
From the bottom, rollers should look like diamond.

You got me there... My interpretation of "X from the top" is different than others apparently. After looking at the linked PDF, based on the description the wheels are in the correct orientation.

My apologies.. Carry on..

(I often describe it to the team as diamond from the top because the rollers face each other in a diamond shape. Guess I should tell them differently. Never thought to look at the way the rollers relate to each other...)
