In doing so, align the screwed stud bolt on the underside of the condenser withthe groove (Fig. 3-13/6).• Press the condenser with the dovetail ring against the mainspring (Fig. 3-13/4) of the condenser carrieruntil the condenser sits horizontally on the condenser carrier.• Position the condenser on the carrier so that the screwed stud bolt sits against the groove (Fig. 3-13/6)at the front.• Insert the centering screws until they engage with the dovetail ring of the condenser.NOTETo mount other types of condensers, proceed in a similar manner.Fig. 3-13 Attaching the condenser
