Inserting the M-687.AP1 universal holder into the aperture
1.
Align the universal holder so that the red dot on the holder points in the direction of
the clip spring of the aperture (refer to figure above).
2.
On the side of the clip spring, place the short edge of the universal holder at a flat angle
in the middle of the aperture so that it makes contact on two sides.
3.
Slowly slide the universal holder towards the clip spring until it reaches the edge and
the clip spring is compressed.
4.
On the opposite side, press the universal holder slowly down until it snaps in
completely.
The universal holder is now clamped firmly.
Removing the M-687.AP1 universal holder from the aperture
