A plunge locking lever is mounted to the housing. The plunge locking lever is moveable between a locked position wherein the guide post is fixed with respect to the housing and an unlocked position wherein the guide post is slidable with respect to the housing thereby adjusting the distance between the base and the housing wherein the plunge locking lever is biased to the locked position. A catch mechanism engages the plunge locking lever in the unlocked position. The catch mechanism is mechanically coupled to a release lever arranged to disengage the catch mechanism and release the plunge locking lever from the unlocked position.
