This started moving (perhaps I tapped a lever inadvertently--
except there doesn't seem to be any lever or other control!)
and kept going as high as it goes--with no apparent way to bring 
it down and out of a position in which the weight of the terminal
may be unstable and bad for the table.

The motor kept on going for quite some time after it couldn't 
get it any higher--even though the side guides are out of their
sockets--before turning itself off.
