4. Screw the SMS into the CO-X’s output lens thread.
5. With the nut (B) loosened, slide the CO-X with the SMS onto the lens of the day scope as far as it
goes.
6. Tighten the nut (B) using a screwdriver.
If the position of the SMS’s clamping nut is unhandy, it is possible to change it as follows:
1. Decide on desirable position of the nut and estimate the angle through which the SMS should be
turned CW (see Figure 3-8).
2. Remove the SMS from the CO-X.
3. Using a screwdriver, remove the both M2×2.5 screws (F, see Figure 3-7) and then unscrew the ring
(E).
CAUTION
:
To loosen the ring (E), only use its two auxiliary non-threaded holes (D), avoiding the use of the
threaded ones.
4. Using a turning machine, cut the inside face of the ring (E). The value of cutting (in millimeters) is
equal to the value of turning angle (in angular degrees) divided by 360°.
5. Screw the ring (E) into the SMS’s body with its cut end directed inwards and tighten it.
6. After applying a small amount of thread lock to the threads, affix the ring (E) with the two M2×2.5
screws (F).
