Incomplete instruction for Model Library example (Sliding Wedge)

Hello,
I'm trying to create a model from Model Library, using only pdf instruction. The model is Sliding Wedge (Structural Mechanics Module/Contact and Friction/sliding_wedge). The problem is, that a model built exactly according to given instruction is not converging.
After comparing my model (attached to this message) with the one included in Model Library, I noticed that the information about manual scaling of dependent variables is missing in pdf instruction. But what is worse - I don't know how can I set scaling so that it is the same as in the reference model (from Model Library).
In my model, automatically created solver contains 'Dependent Variables 1' node, which consists of only one field - 'mod1.u'. In Model Library model, there are many more fields (like, for example, 'mod1.solid.Tt_ap1').
So, my question is - what should I do to add these fields to Dependent Variables node?
