The shifting pressure plate moves so that when the Rolleikin is installed, the back will close! If I am not mistaken, the earlier Rolleikins had the adjustable back included since the factory back did not have the provision for the Rolleikin. Later models had the back as standard and took the Rolleikin 2. If you need help with determining what model you have, email me privately. The Rolleikin is a neat item, and fun!
