Azimuth adjustment
M-zero obs standard
The azimuth regulation is performed in a
similar manner, using both hands to turn the
other two adjustment knobs in opposite
directions simultaneously. When a knob is
rotated in one direction the other is rotated in
the opposite direction. Turn them so that the
screws attached to the knobs press against the
brass adjustment post and move the mount to
the right or left by a small amount. The
azimuth adjustment knobs are those positioned
on both sides of the mount as seen in the
picture on the right.
NOTE:
in order to allow the amount rotation
for the Azimuth adjustment, the three mount
fixing knobs must be slightly loosened.
