the Motor Bracket so it is snug
but still can rotate. The Drive
Wheel should now be in-linewith the fine focus knob of theFocusmate. Rotate the Motor
until the O-rings make contact
with fine focus knob.
Step 3a) If necessary, it is possible to adjust the motor position in or out slightly in order toobtain better alignment of theO-rings to the Focusmate. To
make an adjustment, loosen
the two screws that holdthe Motor Bracket onto theFocusmate Barrel. The holes
are slotted to allow a push orpull of the bracket in or out tocenter the O-ring contact on
the fine focus knob. Retighten
the Motor Bracket attachment
screws.
