A first tube is movably carried by the first bracket and a second tube is movably carried by the second bracket. The first and second tubes are movable in the brackets between a retracted position that positions the machine over the base section and an extended position that positions the machine in a cantilevered position adjacent the retracted position. Each of the first tube and the second tube includes a tube clip that is fixed in position thereon and a first rod is movably disposed in the first tube and a second rod is movably disposed in the second tube, each of the first and second rod including a rod clip sized and shaped to releasably retain the machine on the clamp assembly in cooperation with a respective tube clip.
