FIGURE 40.
ALIGNING THE TOW LAUNCHER IN AZIMUTH.
(b) Using a 3/8 inch flat tip screwdriver, pivot the TOW
missile launcher within its armor box until the boresight telescope
azimuth crosshair aligns on the aiming point of the target.
(c) Use the socket wrench, extension, and handle to tighten
the four center TOW launcher mounting screws so that the TOW launcher
will not pivot on the base plate.
Then tighten the four end TOW
launcher mounting screws so that the launcher will not pivot on the
base plate.
(d) Recheck the alignment of the azimuth crosshair of the
boresight telescope reticle on the aiming point of the target.
The
azimuth crosshair should now be aligned so that boresighting can
continue.
(17) Check the elevation alignment of the boresight telescope
reticle. If the elevation crosshair of the boresight telescope does
not align on the target aiming point, manually elevate or depress the
TOW launcher as required to align the elevation crosshair of the
boresight telescope on the aiming point of the target.
