Italian term

scanso

Italian to English Tech/Engineering Mechanics / Mech Engineering
Hi folks, I'm helping a friend with this but it's quite technical and I don't do this stuff. Quando mai... :-(

Anyway, here is the sentence:
Terminata la prova estratta l’ultima carota, sarà necessario provvedere all’estrazione delle aste di perforazione, per fare questo il procedimento è simile a quello del tubo carotatore, con l’unica differenza che in questo caso la staffa di presa va inserite negli appositi *** scansi *** ricavati sulle aste, sotto il quale verranno inserite le ali del cilindro per il sollevamento.

Thanks a lot.
