(47-54 N-m).

3 - 

Install backframe assembly  onto yoke cap assembly.

Secure with M20 x 140mm hex bolt and hex nut (9 & 11).
Loosen M12 hex bolt (10) and remove one M22 hex nut
(7) from elevation adjusting screw (6) and insert into
trunnion (8). Trunnion (8) in position shown is for 13˚ and
above elevation. If elevation is less than 13˚, pivot
trunnion 180˚. Reinstall M22 hex nut (7). Do not tighten.
(Refer to Figure 1.3)

4 -
