How to adjust the movements:

(In all cases adjustments refer to both the knob indicated
and the corresponding knob on the other side of the
camera)

(a)  Rise/Fall

Front: Loosen knob 42, and while holding it raise or lower front standard.
Rear: Loosen knob 32, and while holding it raise or lower rear standard.

(b)  Center Tilts

Front: Loosen knob 43, and holding lower part of front standard, push

forward or pull back.

Rear: Loosen knob 34, and holding lower part of rear standard, push

forward or pull back.

(c)  Base Tilts

Front: Loosen knob 44, then release from notch in front base tilts arm (45).
Rear: Loosen knob 33, then release from notch in rear base tilts arm (35).

(d)  Shift/Swing

Front: Unlock front locking lever (13), then swing or push front standard to

the left or right.

Rear: Unlock rear locking lever (18), then swing or push rear standard to

the left or right.

Points to remember:
1)

After making each adjustment, be sure to retighten the knobs or lever.  If two
pairs of knobs are loose at the same time, particularly 33 and 34, the camera
becomes difficult to handle.

2)

Loosen lock knobs 11 and 12 before making front focusing adjustments, and
lock knob 10 before making rear adjustments. Tighten again afterwards.

• To install/remove focusing frame (23), pull focusing frame release lever (21).
