Refer to Figure 66. Measure and note the distance between either outermost angle clip bolt head and the subreflector rim. Obtain the corresponding measurements from the remaining subreflector struts, and adjust the subreflector mounting hardware (4 places) to achieve a maximum differential of 1/16 inch.
