4.Use the Lens Mounting Screws to attach the Lens Adapter Ring (item #1) to the Pitch Adjustment Yoke (item #2); see Figure 3-21.(Use the round, threaded holes on the yoke.)

5.Use the Height/Y Adjustment T-Screws/Washers (item #3), Pitch Adjustment T-Screws/Washers (item #4) and T-Nuts (item #9) to attach the Pitch Adjustment Yoke and Lens Adapter Ring to the Anamorphic Lens Holder. The Yoke should be as close to the primary lens as possible.
