There are two ¼-20 x 1/2-inch SHCS for each connection between ring segments. Install both screws but
do not tighten them completely. This allows ring adjustment so that the telescope can be oriented
properly, and the flats on the rings can be aligned as shown in Figure 33.
Scope Rail Installation
There are two scope rails, and the orientation of the rail is critical for installation into the forks. Each of
the plates is identical, so both need to be mounted on the opposing flat surface containing the threaded
holes as shown in Figure 34 and Figure 35. Figure 36 shows the U-shaped section of the scope rail that
must be installed facing toward the ground on both sides of the telescope when the scope is pointing at
0 degrees altitude.
