Common directions for mounting:

The MFC-1 can be attached to the camera in multiple ways. (Depending on what
camera and lens you use, you may want to use a different configuration):

First of all, the Focus Unit can be attached to the 15mm bracket in two ways.
The Gear mount is offset in relation to the rotation knob, so the Focus unit can

be mounted in a “high” or a “low” configuration. Be aware: the rotation direction
of the drive gear will change when doing so. It works as follows:

1.

Unscrew the Fastening screw to release the Focus unit.

2.

Remove the Focus unit from the 15mm bracket.

3.

Rotate the Focus unit 180 degrees.

4.

Reattach the Focus unit to the 15mm bracket using the Fastening
screw.

Secondly, the Drive gear can be mounted on either side of the Focus unit.
There are two linked Gear mounts, which can be used. Depending on where
the gear ring is located on the camera lens, you may want to change which
Gear mount you use.

Alternatively you can mount the entire MFC-1 backwards on the 15mm bars, so
the Rotation knob can be used with the right hand.
