Due to the larger diameter of lens opening on Type 2 lenses, the
Zoom Clamp and Gear Sleeve need to be installed from the rear
(bayonet end) of the lens. Use the housings Lens Release Control
and remove the camera lens from the camera body.

The Zoom Clamp has springs so
it can be expanded to fit over the
Zoom ring of the lens as shown
in ((FFiigg.. II)). Install the Zoom Clamp
with the extension tabs toward
the rear element of the lens. After
installing the Zoom Clamp, check
that when rotating the Zoom
Clamp it rotates the
Zoom ring on the
lens. If the Zoom
Clamp is not tight
enough to rotate
the Zoom ring on
the lens, remove
the Zoom Clamp
and install the rubber
strips (supplied) to the inside of
the Zoom Clamp as shown ((FFiigg.. H H)).
Two thickness of rubber strips
are provided. Start by installing
the thinnest rubber strips, if the
Zoom Clamp still is not tight
enough use the thicker rubber
strips. Reinstall the Zoom Clamp.

After the Zoom Clamp is installed, lower the appropriate Gear
Sleeve over the Zoom Clamp aligning the Gear Sleeve ribs with the
grooves in the Zoom Clamps extended tabs as shown ((FFiigg..D D & & EE)).
Note that the ribs of the Gear Sleeve should slide freely in the
grooves of the Zoom Clamp. If the Gear Sleeve does not slide
freely, remove any rubber strips on the inside of the Zoom Clamp,
if no rubber strips are installed then try using the Zoom Clamp
and Gear Sleeve for Type 2 lenses in the #5509.28 package.
Lower the Gear Sleeve into the port opening of the housing so
the teeth on the Gear Sleeve mesh with the teeth on the housing
Drive Gear ((FFiigg.. GG)).. When the port is installed it will lock the
Gear Sleeve in place. After installing the port, rotate the housings
Zoom Control Knob to see that the Gear Sleeve is properly
rotating the lenses Zoom ring.
