I've learned of a method on the Alternative Process Mail List how to 
eliminate pizza wheel marks. Here is what was posted:

'Lift the top and look down on the wheels.  They are on a silver bar 
which lifts up about 1/8".  On the far left is a plastic wheel.  With 
the silver lifted up with your right hand, press the wheel down with 
your left little finger.  It should snap down and stay put, lifting 
up the silver bar and all the "pizza wheels".'

This works without a hitch.

Hope this helps,
