The new carriages pivoted at the gun ports to minimize the size of the ports. Two compressors, or clamps, were fitted to squeeze the rails and increase friction between the rails and the cradle, but these were not strong enough to handle the 560:, but it proved unsatisfactory in service as the ship became more unmanageable as her speed increased.
