Assembly and Adjustment Notes
7. Assemble the contacts (16) and (18) so contact I (18) is under contact II (18).
8. After installing the accessory shoe mounting plate (23), apply black diabond all around
the joint with the prism cover so no crack is left open. (Water resistance)
9. Pentaprism Cover, Lead Dress
9.1 Solder the black and yellow leads as quickly as
possible to prevent loosening of the contacts in their

on a damp sponge).

as shown.
