Found this War Department Technical Manual (1944) that might come in handy:

Thanks for this link -- I've been there but it's good to have it here. I'm considering a ring and cylinder adjustment for my KMM, so this gives a good roadmap -- not intuitively obvious how to do it otherwise.

Funny that this is on the Historic Naval Ship Association website!

This manual has been linked to a few times in the forum (see this page, for example). Links to manuals can be generally found in the Resources sub-forum, which is where I moved this thread to, and I'm wondering if we should work on having one master list of such links as a sticky at the top of the sub-forum?

Excellent idea.
