Jessestr Posted December 8, 2014 Share #1 Posted December 8, 2014 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) So from the first day I had my M6 from Leicashop it's vertical aligment was sligthly off. However it was CLA'ed just before shipment. After 11 months I took the "Leitz" logo off myself and googled how to adjust it. I read about you need to put in acetone to make the glue loose so you can turn the dial. However I did everything and the vertical aligment didn't change. Anyone did this before? I made the tool myself. But I don't know how this could work as the tool need to be put in the "D-shaped hole" but there is nothing to turn in there? How does it work? Where do I put the acetone to loosen the glue? Many thanks! Jesse Edited December 8, 2014 by Jessestr Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomB_tx Posted December 8, 2014 Share #2 Posted December 8, 2014 It's not always so easy: My M4 came back from a CLA with slight vertical misalignment, and after return to fix it, it came back just the same with a statement that it was adjusted to factory specs. So I instead sent it to DAG, who indicated he could easily fit the simple adjustment in. But he reported the basic "rough" adjustment while disassembled hadn't been done right, and the vertical was already at the limit of adjustment. So he had to remove the top cover, and re-set the basic adjustment so the front adjusting screw could cover the needed range. It has been perfect since.

Jessestr Posted December 8, 2014 Author Share #3 Posted December 8, 2014 Maybe important to say. When I turn the screw I can see it going up but when I let it go it just goes back to where it was. Anyone an idea? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
