2.  Projective Resolving Power Checking Method
1)  Turn the focus ring of the checking lens until the chart image projected on the screen is the sharpest at the center (y  = 0).
2)  Read the number of the smallest pitched lines at the center (y  = 0).
 
The number represents for lines per mm.
Sagittal (S)
Meridional (M)
 Fig. 
5-4-3
3)  Rotate the mount rotational plate of the lens projector while observing y  = 9, y  = 12, y  = 15 or y  = 18 and stop it at the location 
where the projective resolving power is worst (low).
 
Read the number of the smallest pitched lines (both sagittal and meridional: 3 lines) at the peripheral point.
Note: 
When reading the number of the smallest pitched lines, be careful of the spurious resolution.
 
 
Spurious resolution is the reversed image of 2 or 4 lines which appears on screen when focus is beyond maximum revolving power as shown 
in Fig. 5-4-4.
 
 
Do not confuse spurious resolution for the smallest pitched lines.

4)  Change the focal length and projected length of the checking lens. (In case of the zoom lens), project the S image and the M image at 
each focal point/projected length and confirm that the number of resolution satisfies the specification of the Table 5-4-1.

5)  Check the projective resolving power. If the projective resolving power does not meet the specification, perform  5-4-2. Projective Re-
solving Power Adjustment (One Side Blur Adjustment) .
5-4-2. Projective Resolving Power Adjustment (One Side Blur Adjustment)
Check the projective resolving power. If it does not meet the specification, perform projective resolving power (one side blur) adjustment.
1. Adjustment procedure
1)  Rotate the 1 group ball frame tube block and perform the  5-4-1.Projective Resolving Power Check . 
 
In case of OK, the adjustment is finished.
 
If NG, perform the adjustment below.
2)  Push the 5 group ball frame block in the direction of poor projection to reduce the gap.
3)  Confirm the optical axis. (Refer to section 5-3-1.)
 
In case of OK, check the projective resolving power.
 
If NG, perform the adjustment below.
4)  Push the 1 group ball frame tube block in the direction of center shift occurrence.
 
In case of OK, check the projective resolving power.
5-5.  FOCUS-SHIFT (FOCAL LENGTH)/FLANGE BACK (f F) CHECK/ADJUSTMENT
5-5-1. Flange Back (f F) Check
Note:
  When measuring or adjusting the flange back (f F), touch the focus and the zoom as shown below.

end
Rotate from 3 m to the near end and touch slowly to the over infinity stopper. (Do not 
slip it.)
 Table 
5-5-1
1)  Set the focal length to the WIDE end (70 mm).
2)  Set the focus to the over infinity end.
3)  Confirm the flange back (f F) value at the WIDE end (70 mm).
4)  Set the focal length to the TELE end (200 mm) and confirm the flange back (f F) value.
Flange back (f F) value =
 
(Value of flange back gauge for SR) + (Number of rotation of short pointer) + (Scale of long pointer)

6)  Rotate the mirror tube block so that it is in focus.
 
Confirm that the L index is in the range shown below.
