The unit is fixed to the mount by the locking screw (1, 
Fig. 6). To adjust the position of the unit to your eye level 
use the screw (4, Fig. 6). To adjust the eye relief first 
loosen the locking screw (1, Fig.6) and set a comfortable 
distance between the eyes and the eyepiece; then tighten 
the locking screw back. 
You can fixate the unit in three predetermined positions: vertical, 
horizontal, and 15-20 degrees above horizontal. Although the 
relative angles between these positions cannot be changed, the 
starting point can be adjusted by screws (3, Fig.6). If you loosen 
them, you can rotate the flip-flop mechanism to find the suitable 
starting point. Tighten the screws (3, Fig.6) after the adjustment.
