Remember the “Right Hand” Rule
The altitude adjuster uses “right-handed” threads. Suppose you wish to increase the
altitude of the polar axis. Point the thumb on your right hand upward, and rotate the
altitude adjuster in the direction your fingers curl.
Figure 52: Rotating the Altitude Adjuster in the direction of the arrow lowers the MX axis (right hand rule applies).
Polar Axis Adjustment for the Paramount MX, Paramount MX+ and Paramount ME II
1.
Loosen the Altitude Adjuster Thrust Knobs (page 106).
2.
Rotate the large central knob (near the arrow in Figure 52) to raise or lower the polar axis.
The Paramount ME II includes a removable Altitude Adjuster Wrench (page 112) to help rotate the
Altitude Adjuster Knob, even with the heavy payloads.
Polar Axis Adjustment for the Paramount M
Y
T
The Paramount M
Y
T has coarse and fine altitude adjustments and requires a
two-step process
when
setting the polar axis altitude.
The coarse adjustment mechanism incorporates a horizontal bar that can be placed into slots that are
machined on the inside of the wedge plates. Each slot raises or lowers the polar altitude by eight degrees.
The coarse adjustment should be performed
before
any equipment is attached to the Versa-Plate.
