Motor drive structure is operatively connected between the mount and the arm for motorized forward retraction of the arm from a rearwardly displaced position to the forward limit position of the arm and the arm and mount include coacting structure for camming the arm to a centered position within the recess responsive to final movement of the arm to a forwardmost retracted limit position.
