2. Attach the azimuth arm with the spacer block (1, Fig. 4) to the wedge
body using the two 8-32 x 1/2” flat-head machine screws (2, Fig 4).
3. Attach the azimuth base (1, Fig. 5) to the tripod using the two 8-32 x 1”
round-head machine screws (2, Fig 5).
4. Thread the two azimuth adjustment knobs (3, Fig. 5) into the azimuth

USING THE AZIMUTH CONTROL
1. To adjust the wedge in azimuth, slightly loosen the 3” central manual
knob and three 5/16” button head screws on the wedge floor.
NOTE:
Never adjust the azimuth controls when the 3” central manual knob
or three 5/16” button head screws are tight. Damage to the wedge
or hardware may occur.
2. Rotate the wedge by using the two azimuth knobs(3, Fig 5) in a push-
pull manner.
3. After positioning the wedge, tighten the central manual knob and three
5/16” button head screws until firm.
