Directional Errors (Ref. Fig.1003)
(1) Adjust the 'B' and 'C' correctors to their neutral-effect alignment (Ref. Fig 11001)
i.e. the indicator lines are aligned with the index lines.
NOTE: An Alignment error of 0.5mm, i.e. the width of an index line, will cause
a deviation error in the compass of approximately 2.5°.
(2) Set the divided test head and its micrometer scale to be zero.
(3) Align the ‘divided test head’ to ‘magnetic north’ with use of the ‘standard
magnetic needle’.
