Dave, I did not forget the clampdowns. I took a cursory look, and seeing no relay clamping actuators, I figured they were totally mechanical in nature...with clamping initiated when car unit first starts rotating. I will revisit these actuators and, if needed, as you recommend, will add another simple ON-OFF switch to toggle these buggers 'ON' when needed. I may also try to incorporate some sort of timing interconnect circuit that will energize these relays automatically when the 'Rotate' Toggle switch is first activated...but that may come a bit later, as I want to get this thing installed and operating. Of course, all this depends upon whether these clamps are indeed electro-mechanical. Either way, I'll let you know. Fair enuff?
