To align and adjust the handwheel
and vernier scales:
1. Loosen the two set screws on
the vernier scale (see Figure 9),
rotate the vernier scale so that
it is in a convenient viewing
position, the re-tighten the set

Using Vernier Scale
The vernier scale is used to measure
table rotation by 10" (ten arc
seconds) at a time.
Use your rotary table to follow along
with the example below to better
understand how to use the vernier
scale.
Note: This example assumes the
table rotation position is at 0°, and
the handwheel and vernier scales
are aligned at 0°.
To set the table at 16° 32' 20":
1. With the table at 0°, rotate the
handwheel clockwise four full
turns, which will rotate the
table 16°.
— If you go past the handwheel
scale 0° mark on the fourth
turn, rotate the table
counterclockwise
1
⁄2 turn,
then start again.
Note: When changing direction
with the handwheel, take into
account any backlash.
