    figures 1 12, 3 and 4 11 are the diopter holes. The settings "2, 3
    and 4" correspond to the distances 200, 300 and 400 m.

    Adjusting the Rotary Rear Sight


    If a re-setting is necessary, it is done only by adjustment of
    the rear sight in elevation or windage.

    Elevation Adjustment
    Insert elevation adjustment tool in the rear sight cylinder so that
    the wedges of the elevation adjustment tool gear into both
    grooves of the rear sight cylinder. Insert cross slit screw driver
    into the elevation adjustment tool and depress. Turn rear sight
    cylinder manually in the desired direction (at clockwise
    rotation the point of impact is lowered, at counter-clockwise
    rotation it raises 3.3 cm at 100 m per notch). After correction
    remove cross slit screw driver and elevation adjustment tool.
