Height adjustment:
Once you’ve determined the ideal mounting position of the MFC-1 the height will have to
be adjusted, so the drive-gear can make contact with the gear-ring on the lens. This
works as follows:
1. Loosen the Fastening screw. This will unlock the Focus Unit and allow it to slide
up or down.
2. Move the Focus unit up or down so that the drive-gear fits snugly into the gear-
ring on the lens. Warning: do not use force while placing the drive gear into
the gear ring. Doing so may damage your lens and will adversely effect
the functioning of the follow focus.
(Tip: for optimum functioning of the follow focus, hold the camera upside-down,
and let the weight of the follow focus press the drive gear into the gear ring.
This will often result in the optimal functioning of the follow focus.)
3. Tighten the fastening screw, locking the Focus unit into place. The MFC-1
should now be ready for use.
