axis, the following test shall be performed with the turret level, turret electrical power OFF and
engine inoperative:
a. Using the gunner's telescope and manual elevation handle, align the main gun on a
target within degree of horizontal.
b. Install a magnetic base dial indicator with a minimum one inch range on the turret
roof and set it at a predetermined point on the gun breech.
c. Again, using the telescope and manual elevation handle, depress the gun at least
15 mils (without overloading the indicator) and then elevate the gun to the original
target (a) without overshoot.
d. Make an indicator reading within six seconds after arriving on target and again after a
one hour period.
e. Verify that the breech has not been moved more than 0.5 mil in the elevation axis.

e. Read both indicators within eight seconds after arriving on target and again after a
one hour period.
f. Verify that the gun has not moved more than 0.5 mil in elevation or traverse.
