Spanish term or phrase: multicolisos
- Las escuadras de guías son multicolisos, porque las guías de cabina son de un perfil distinto, al de las guías de contrapeso.

- Cuando las guías están centradas, los telares rozan con sus marcas y sus espaldas coinciden, se aprietan los tornillos de los soportes de guías y las ménsulas que la sustentan

Many thanks!

Thanks, Liz!

agree  Peter Clews: As DLyons points out, the mounting brackets/plates (escuadras) are used to support both the cabin guides and the counterweight guides, so they have slots corresponding to both types of guide.
