Old Beseler 45MCRX Alignment Instructions

I was cleaning up some old files from an old computer and saw this. The topic seems to arise from time to time and I thought this would at least make for some interesting reading, even if you have alternate methods. There may be a tidbit or two that you could adapt to your rig?

Thanks for posting these instructions. Yes, they should be useful for anyone using a Beseler 45M enlarger.

Interesting! I bought a used 45 MCRX a few years ago with the elevation one tooth off on one side. I wondered when in it's 50 years that happened. How long the previous owner operated it that way.
