How to install and remove the indexing rings and adjusting the indexing force
Installing
Indexing Rings
1) Slide the Indexing Ring onto the Rotator Base from the bot- tom, keeping the portion of the Indexing Ring with the degree label facing up until it makes contact with the brass plunger. The brass plunger will eventu- ally snap into the hole that is in the side of the Indexing Ring.
2) Rotate the Indexing Ring to line up the notch on the top of the Indexing Ring with the black slanted alignment pin at the top of the Rotator Base. The pin will eventually go into the notch.
3) Depress the brass plunger and push up on the Indexing Ring until the brass plunger pops into the plunger hole and the pin slides into the notch.
Removing
Indexing Rings
On the lower portion of the black Indexing Ring, there is gold colored pin visible through the hole in the side. Insert the tip of a ball point pen or a pa- per clip end into the hole and push the gold pin inward till the Indexing Ring drops down,then slide the Indexing Ring off the Rotator Base.

Be sure to not overtighten the plunger so that the metal body of the plunger would come in contact with the indexing ring. Also be sure that the plunger is not set deep enough as this will cause excessive play in the indexing action.
