for left right adjustment hang a needle by a thread over the center of
the lens glass and adjust head so needle is on center line.
for forward/ back put some tape on a window and move camera forward or
back until there is no shift between a distant object and tape when
viewing from about left 1/4 of lens and right 1/4 of lens.

Hi Anne,

As the scale on the 303 has no relationship with the actual camera or
lens I can't translate the settings from the Adjuste. You can however
see the correct position of the front of the lens in relation to the
red ring in these photos.
