Using known good gunner’s quadrant and 6-inch parallel bar positioned across the top of two straight keys (12), ensure that keys are parallel with flat surface of round block (8). Recheck square portion of elevation shaft (3) to ensure that shaft is still level in elevation and cross- level positions. If not, repeat step 8. Using known good gunner’s quadrant and 6-inch parallel bar, position parallel bar and gunner’s quadrant on the face of round block (8) perpendicular to flat surface of round block (8), and adjust two cap screws (7) at 12 o’clock position and two cap screws (7) at 6 o’clock position until bubble on gunner's quadrant is centered. Rotate upper section handwheel (elevation) (9) to position flat surface of round block (8) from horizontal to perpendicular position as measured with a known good gunner’s quadrant and a 6-inch parallel bar on flat surface of round block (8).
